Further to your reply with the output, given proper packaging, yum should have been able to resolve the dependencies and pull them down for install. To really nail down the issue, I'd say that you might need to take out livna and presto repo bits after a yum remove freeciv and then try the install again (I am faintly hoping that it is not yum since for me it does pull down SDL_mixer and timidity++ properly on x86, x86_64 boxes) - -- You see things; and you say 'Why?'; But I dream things that never were; and I say 'Why not?' - George Bernard Shaw -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGrwm1XQZpNTcrCzMRAqIDAJ4qPkkMShAP4fLQp3+vWBGbWHHsXQCbB7XJ +U6zw3zJGy0h/UvA0sh0SS4= =6OUD -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Next Event: http://freed.in - September 28-29, 2007 Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
