The problem is the first character ('5') of the lpp_name file.
The IBM AIX pub:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/pseries/topic/com.ibm.aix.doc/aixprggd/genprogc/pkging_sw4_install.htm#de3b433190mela
says this:
Field Name Format Separator Description
1. Format Integer White space Indicates the release
level of installp for which this package was built. The values are:
* 1 - AIX 3.1
* 3 - AIX 3.2
* 4 - AIX 4.1 and later
Note the "4" is 'AIX 4.1 and later'. There is no '5' for that field.

I should have read the manual more closely. I had seen the
2, 3, 4 and thought the manual was out of date, that's why
I put the 5 there.

It works great with a 4.

Thanks.
