I find downloading an rpm and its pre-requisites is quite a chore.  I believe 
RHEL should have yum?  It can help you download the rpm and its 
pre-requisites and install all of them for you.  You can follow 
http://sial.org/howto/yum/ to set it up.  I've never used that tutorial, 
though.  My preference is to use apt, which is similar to Debian.
