• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The V16.1.0.3 and V16.1.0.4 XL C++ Runtime installation packages
  did not include the base V16.1.0.0 runtime filesets. This
  causes missing prerequisite errors during installation if the
  base filesets are not already installed:
  
  
  Requisite Failures
   ------------------
   SELECTED FILESETS: The following is a list of filesets that
   you asked to install. They cannot be installed until all of
   their requisite filesets are also installed. See subsequent
   lists for details of requisites.
  
   libc++.rte 16.1.0.4 # IBM XL C++ Runtime for AIX 7...
   xlC.adt.include 16.1.0.4 # C Set ++ Application Develop...
   xlC.aix61.rte 16.1.0.4 # IBM XL C++ Runtime for AIX 6...
   xlC.rte 16.1.0.4 # IBM XL C++ Runtime for AIX
  
   MISSING REQUISITES: The following filesets are required by
   one or more of the selected filesets listed above. They
   are not currently installed and could not be found on the
   installation media.
  
   libc++.rte 16.1.0.0 # Base Level Fileset
   xlC.adt.include 16.1.0.0 # Base Level Fileset
   xlC.aix61.rte 16.1.0.0 # Base Level Fileset
   xlC.rte 16.1.0.0 # Base Level Fileset
  

Local fix

• Install the base V16.1.0.0 filesets prior to installing the
  V16.1.0.3 or V16.1.0.4 PTFs.
  

Problem summary

• USERS AFFECTED:
  Users wanting to install the C++ Runtime from the 'C++ Runtime
  only' package
  and who do not have the base V16.1.0.0 C++ runtime already
  installed are affected by this issue.
  
  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  The C++ Runtime only package should be installable on its own
  even if you do not
  have the C++ Runtime V16.1.0.0 base installed on your system.
  

Problem conclusion

• The fix is to include the base V16.1.0.0 C++ Runtime filesets in
   the 'C++ Runtime only' package.
