dependency problem installing MC in Redhat 9.0

[Alejandro Lengua * VOhosting.com]

Hi!
I am having a hard time trying to install midnight commander
(mc-4.6.0-2.i386.rpm), actually my only dependency left is
libslang.so.1 ....

Making some googling I found that the slang-1.2.2-1.i386.rpm
is the one I should need to install. However a more recent version
"package slang-1.4.5-16" is already installed.

So I decided to install forcing --nodeps
however it didn´t work fine and now I get this error everytime I run "mc"

mc: error while loading shared libraries: libslang.so.1: cannot open 
shared object file: No such file or directory

Thanks in advance
