Gmfsk and Mandriva 2008

Gmfsk and Mandriva 2008

[Phil]

Thank you for reading this.

During the process of compiling gmfsk I have come to the stage where I need 
to install libgnomeui2-devel. I've spent the past two weeks in dependency 
hell and I'm now at the point where I have to seek help.

The final package, and surly it is near the end of the list, is 
libgnome2-devel. It won't install because it requires another package 
(libbonobo-devel, I think it was), which in turn requires libgnome2-devel; a 
circular dependency.

I've been using gmfsk for many years and each time I upgrade Mandriva I have 
to go through a fairly easy process of installing a short list of packages, 
but not this time! The process is more difficult than it needs to be because 
I now have to connect to the Internet under Windows, download a package, 
restart Linux only to discover that I need another package.

Is there anyone on the list that uses gmfsk under Mandriva 2008?

Regards,
Phil.

Hi Phil,

Do you use urpmi to install libgnome2-devel ?
It is supposed to install all dependencies at the same time.
This is what I get when doing urpmi libgnome2-devel

root@bernard ax25]# urpmi libgnome2-devel
Pour satisfaire les dépendances, les paquetages suivants vont être installés

Procéder à l'installation des 11 paquetages ? (17 Mo) (O/n) 


I did not go further as I am not using gmfsk.

Thank you for the list Bernard, it was very helpful. I was missing two RPMs
and a third was an earlier version. Mandriva 2008 also requires
libgail-devel.

Gmfsk now works, once again.

Thank you for your reply as well Richard. I don't think it's a good idea to
force the installation of an RPM. You can end up in more trouble than Flash
Gordon

Of course, I wouldn't have to go through all of this rigmarole if I could
establish an Internet connection under Linux.

Regards,
Phil.
