	Hi there.  RPM's dependancies are based on its database, and not on the actual
filesystem.  So the 'ln' wouldn't make any difference in this case.  Try this:

# rpm -ivh --nodeps cscope-15.3-1.i386.rpm

	That bypasses RPM's opinion of what is and should be installed, so you might
always have to remember that as a one-off.
