Thanks a lot, it worked! And I even remembered that 7 years ago I knew that :(

I still couldn't install the rpm - yum complained the architecture amd_64 is different from x86_64, then rpm itself was still looking for
libncurses.so.5 is needed by FirebirdSS-2.1.7.18553-0.amd64
libstdc++.so.5 is needed by FirebirdSS-2.1.7.18553-0.amd64
But the tar.gz installed alright (still getting some complaint - /usr/bin/dirname: extra operand `-start') and the service is now working.

You need to install compat-libstdc++-33 package. That package will give you the needed C++ libraries to run firebird on RHEL/CentOS 6

The rpm and tar.gz packages from firebird.sql seem to fail [at least]
because of libstdc++ - if I understand correctly, they need
libstdc++.so.5 while I have libstdc++.so.6
I couldn't find an rpm or pre-compiled 2.1.7 binary for RHEL/CentOS6,
but maybe I didn't know how and where to look. Can anyone suggest
anything else to try before I start trying to compile from sources?
(Never done that and have the impression it may not be that easy).
Thanks
