libXp.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Last weekend i was trying to install Oracle 10g Release2 on Fedora 13 on a friends machine.
After installing the required packages and setting the kernel parameters,i was stuck with an error.
Below is the error:

[oracle@localhost database]$ ./runInstaller

The error was due to "libXp.so.6"  which cannot be find in /usr/lib.

To fix this problem you need to install libXp package.

On this machine i used "yum install libXp" command to install this package.

Or you can search for libXp package according to your linux flavour and version.

After successful installation of this package you will find libXp.so.6 in /usr/lib.

Now the installer should run without any problem..
