Package Installation support on sles 11 sp3

1

I was trying to install rsyslog on sles 11 sp3 for vmware. As there is no internet availability i couldn’t be able to download using internet. So i tried to download rpm package and install it.
localhost:~/bharanik # rpm -ivh rsyslog-3.20.5-0.x86_64.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
gnutls-devel >= 1.4.1 is needed by rsyslog-3.20.5-0.x86_64
localhost:~/bharanik # rpm -ivh gnutls-1.4.1-2.x86_64.rpm

I couldn’t be able to find the libgcrypt-devel package on the internet for this machine. If anyone could help that could be great.

Firstly SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP3 (and SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 in general) is no longer supported by SUSE. I believe before that VMware had already stopped offering the SLES for VMware product.

With SLES11 the -devel packages were available via the associated Software Development Kit (SDK) so you need the SUSE Linux Enterprise Software Development Kit 11 SP3.

If you have support for a more recent version of SLES then you could try asking SUSE Support if they can provide you with the ISO for the above.
