I have built two RPM packages
proj1-1.0-1.x86_64.rpmlibtest1-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm
proj1 depends on the file libtest1.so being present and it is reflected correctly in the RPM packages as seen here:
user@my-pc:~$ rpm -qp --requires proj1-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm libtest1.so()(64bit) user@my-pc:~$ rpm -qp --provides libtest1-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm libtest1.so()(64bit) The installation of proj1 fails due to a missing dependency.
user@my-pc:~$ rpm -ivh proj1-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm error: Failed dependencies: libtest1.so()(64bit) is needed by proj1-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm How do I ensure that libtest1-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm is installed automatically during the installation of proj1-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm?
I did try the --aid option with rpm -i as described here but it didn't work for me.
Is there any other way?
Thanks for any help.

The link @gertvdijk provided shows a quick way to achieve the desired results without configuring a local repository:
$ yum --nogpgcheck localinstall packagename.arch.rpm Just change packagename.arch.rpm to the RPM filename you want to install.
Edit Just a clarification, this will automatically install all dependencies that are already available via system YUM repositories.
If you have dependencies satisfied by other RPMs that are not in the system's repositories, then this method will not work unless each RPM is also specified along with packagename.arch.rpm on the command line.
Create a (local) repository and use yum to have it resolve the dependencies for you.
The CentOS wiki has a nice page providing a how-to on this. CentOS wiki HowTos/CreateLocalRepos.
Summarized and further minimized (not ideal, but quickest):
- Create a directory for you local repository, e.g.
/home/user/repo. - Move the RPMs into that directory.
Fix some ownership and filesystem permissions:
# chown -R root.root /home/user/repoInstall the
createrepopackage if not installed yet, and run# createrepo /home/user/repo # chmod -R o-w+r /home/user/repoCreate a repository configuration file, e.g.
/etc/yum.repos.d/myrepo.repocontaining[local] name=My Awesome Repo baseurl=file:///home/user/repo enabled=1 gpgcheck=0Install your package using
# yum install packagename
For dnf users just use dnf install *.rpm, localinstall is no longer needed.
For me worked just with
# yum install ffmpeg-2.6.4-1.fc22.x86_64.rpm And automatically asked authorization to dowload the depedencies. Below the example, i am using fedora 22

If you have all the RPMs in the same directory, all you need to do is,
$ sudo rpm -i *.rpm rpm seems to figure out the correct order to install these and installs the RPMs.
Matthew's answer awoke many emotions, because of the fact that it still lacks a minor detail. The general command would be:
# yum --nogpgcheck localinstall <package1_file_name> ... <packageN_file_name> The package_file_name above can include local absolute or relative path, or be a URL (possibly even an URI).
Yum would search for dependencies among all package files given on the command line AND IF IT FAILS to find the dependencies there, it will also use any configured and enabled yum repositories.
Neither the current working directory, nor the paths of any of package_file_name will be searched, except when any of these directories has been previously configured as an enabled yum repository.
So in the OP's case the yum command:
# cd <path with pkg files>; yum --nogpgcheck localinstall ./proj1-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm ./libtest1-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm would do, as would do the rpm:
# cd <path with pkg files>; rpm -i proj1-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm libtest1-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm The differencve between these yum and rpm invocations would only be visible if one of the packages listed to be installed had further dependencies on packages NOT listed on the command line.
In such a case rpm will just refuse to continue, while yum would use any configured and enabled yum repositories to search for dependencies, and may possibly succeed.
The current working directory will NOT be searched in any case, except when it has been previously configured as an enabled yum repository.
In the case of openSUSE Leap 15, I'm receiving similar error:

Copy all your RPMs in a directory, then install as follows:
yum install -y --cacheonly --disablerepo=* /var/rpm_dir/*.rpm
For specific packages you can use yumdownloader, example in this other thread:
I ran into this and what worked for me was to run yum localinstall enterPkgNameHere.rpm from inside the directory where the .rpm file is located.
Note: replace the enterPkgNameHere.rpm with the name of your .rpm file.
Step1: copy all the rpm pkg in given locations
Step2: if createrepo is not already installed, as it will not be by default, install it.
[root@pavangildamysql1 8.0.11_rhel7]# yum install createrepo Step3: create repository metedata and give below permission

[local] name=My Awesome Repo baseurl=file:///scratch/PVN/8.0.11_rhel7 enabled=1 gpgcheck=0 Step5 Run this command to install
[root@pavangildamysql1 local]# yum --nogpgcheck localinstall mysql-commercial-server-8.0.11-1.1.el7.x86_64.rpm Simple just run the following command.
sudo dnf install *package.rpm Enter your password and you are done.
Process of generating RPM from source file: 1) download source file with.gz extention. 2) install rpm-build and rpmdevtools from yum install. (rpmbuild folder will be generated...SPECS,SOURCES,RPMS.. folders will should be generated inside the rpmbuild folder). 3) copy the source code.gz to SOURCES folder.(rpmbuild/SOURCES) 4)Untar the tar ball by using the following command. go to SOURCES folder :rpmbuild/SOURCES where tar file is present. command: e.g tar -xvzf httpd-2.22.tar.gz httpd-2.22 folder will be generated in the same path. Check if apr and apr-util and there in httpd-2.22/srclib folder. If apr and apr-util doesnt exist download latest version from apache site ,untar it and put it inside httpd-2.22/srclib folder. Also make sure you have pcre install in your system .
5)go to extracted folder and then type below command: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache2 --with-included-apr --enable-proxy --enable-proxy-balancer --with-mpm=worker --enable-mods-static=all 6)run below command once the configure is successful: make 7)after successfull execution od make command run: checkinstall in tha same folder. (if you dont have checkinstall software please download latest version from site) Also checkinstall software has bug which can be solved by following way::::: locate checkinstallrc and then replace TRANSLATE = 1 to TRANSLATE=0 using vim command. Also check for exclude package: EXCLUDE="/selinux" 8)checkinstall will ask for option (type R if you want tp build rpm for source file) 9)Done .rpm file will be built in RPMS folder inside rpmbuild/RPMS file... ALL the BEST ....
