        Subject: Problem Installing  fvwm-themes-0.7.0-2

Full_Name: Jon Turenne
Version: fvwm 2.5.10


When I try to install the themes PKG, I get a dependency error, saying that
I need to have >= 2.5.8.   Since I am running 2.5.10, I should be fine.  I
have also tried this with FVWM 2.5.8, and got the same results.

pats:~> fvwm -version
fvwm 2.5.10 compiled on Jun 24 2004 at 08:42:13

Compiled by hand.

pats:~> sudo rpm -i fvwm-themes-0.7.0-2.noarch.rpm
Password:
error: Failed dependencies:
       fvwm >= 2.5.8 is needed by fvwm-themes-0.7.0-2

This is a general rpm dependency problem that has nothing special to do
with fvwm and fvwm-themes.

Like the error says, you should install fvwm rpm before installing
fvwm-themes rpm. Both rpms are available in the same place. If you prefer
to install fvwm from sources, then install fvwm-themes from sources too.

Think about it. You installed fvwm into the /usr/local or some other
prefix, but this rpm uses the /usr prefix, it simply can't work together
with your manual installation and thus the dependancy error is good.

Regards,
Mikhael.
