I just went trought the Ximian installer with ML 7.2 following your instructions. It failed :-( This is what happened. I went through all the downloading ( many many hours ) and I got this message at the end after the packages verification: xmms-mesa-1.2.3-4mdk requires xmms=1.2.3 gnome-pim-devel-1.2.0-6mdk requires gnome-pim = 1.2.0 So I cancelled and did the following RPM queries: rpm -q xmms -> xmms-1.2.3-4mdk rpm -q gnome-pim -> gnome-pim1.2.0-6mdk So, I do have the correct packages already installed after all! What is going on? What do I need to do? Uninstall those packages first? I have having to give up so close to the goal. Please help!
