When you install packages by hand, RPM can't know that they are there to satisfy the dependencies. In general, you need to either (1) find an RPM for the dependency, (2) install the dependency using checkinstall, or (3) install the dependent package with --nodeps (listed in order of dramatically decreasing desirability). In this case: [EMAIL PROTECTED] mjs]$ whichcd glib You appear to be running Red Hat Linux 9. I'll search for rpms for that version. Searching for glib... CD-1:glib-1.2.10-10.i386.rpm CD-1:glib2-2.2.1-1.i386.rpm ... CD-2:glib-devel-1.2.10-10.i386.rpm CD-2:glib2-devel-2.2.1-1.i386.rpm ... SOURCE-CD-1:glib-1.2.10-10.src.rpm SOURCE-CD-1:glib2-2.2.1-1.src.rpm ... Uninstall the glib you installed by hand and install the glib2 RPM from the CD. > > Many thanks.. > -- Matthew Saltzman Clemson University Math Sciences [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.math.clemson.edu/~mjs -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
