Problems updating libstdc++ on FC4

Hello

I am running Fedora Core 4, which comes with    libstdc++-4.0.0-8    as standard. 

However, tse3, a program I've been trying to install   (version tse3-0.3.0-1, a dependency of noteedit, which I'm trying to get to run)  states for its package dependencies that it needs:
libstdc++.so.6(GLIBCXX_3.4.5)

The rpmfind websites suggested I needed libstdc++, which I tired to install.
But I thought I had libstdc++  installed already!(libstdc++-4.0.0-8    as standard,  as I said above)

I tried installing slightly newer versions of libstdc++: libstdc++-4.0.1-4
But strangely, this produced this error message:

  libstdc++          required by ('libstdc++-devel', '4.0.0', '8')    
  libstdc++          required by ('gcc-c++', '4.0.0', '8')

Why is this package dependent on itself? On an earlier version I definitely have installed already?  The libstdc++ package I have must be working: I have lots of programs that are dependent on it that are running fine.  


SO could someone please tell me why libstdc++ won't upgrade?  
By the way, I DON'T have the internet, so   *I can't use YUM*.   Has anyone else had this problem with fedora??? (or any other),  and what do I do?



Thanks, 
LSharkey, linux newbie
