[Info-ingres] Upgrade patch problem

yum install -y libX11 libXext libXi libXrender libXtst

Now the install works, but ...

The -interactive flag is a fraud. At no point was I asked what locations for data/backup/jnl/dump/log etc. I was not asked what character set, what size log file. Absolutely nothing.
 
It was so bad I backed it out and did the install from the standard ingres 11 and then applied the patch15330.

Don't take my word for it -- I try to avoid the installers as best I can and maybe there's
another reason for the dependencies.  I would get an issue through Support, though.

Maybe there's another set of install.sh options that would make the problem go away,
I dunno.
