I mean to install a package that is apparently not available in my registered repos (see RedHat, which package provides hdf5.h).
So I downloaded hdf5-openmpi-devel-1.8.5.patch1-10.el6.i686.rpm from rpmfind.net, and tried installing from file, obtaining complaints about some missing files (see (1) below).
But those files exist in my system (see (2) below).
How can I work around this issue to get a functional system?
This seems to deal with a related but different issue.

# yum install /shared/hdf5-openmpi-devel-1.8.5.patch1-10.el6.i686.rpm

You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
