Installing imlib...

[KyPeN]

Getting angry!! No matter what I do, I can't seem to install imlib (libImlib.so.1 is what I need really). I downloaded this (http://rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/redhat/taroon/i386/imlib-1.9.13-12.i386.html) and it said its already installed. So I "--replacepkgs" it anyway, and tried again. I still get that same error!

[root@localhost root]# rpm -ihv Eterm*.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
libImlib.so.1 is needed by Eterm-0.9-2
[root@localhost root]# locate libImlib.so.1
/root/Old Stuff/imlib-1.9.14/Imlib/.libs/libImlib.so.1.9.14
/root/Old Stuff/imlib-1.9.14/Imlib/.libs/libImlib.so.1
/usr/lib/libImlib.so.11.0.0
/usr/lib/libImlib.so.11
/usr/lib/libImlib.so.1
/usr/local/lib/libImlib.so.1.9.14
/usr/local/lib/libImlib.so.1
[root@localhost root]#


Suggestions?

Try uninstalling Imlib and reinstall again. Then do an "ldconfig"

Here is some food for thought:
[root@localhost root]# rpm -ihv imlib-1.9.13-12.i386.rpm
Preparing... ########################################### [100%]
package imlib-1.9.13-12 is already installed
[root@localhost root]# rpm -e imlib-1.9.13-12.i386.rpm
error: package imlib-1.9.13-12.i386.rpm is not installed
[root@localhost root]#

It won't work if you specify the exact name of package you installed.

rpm -e imlib

Should I do a no dependancy thing on it?
This is what I get, and I don't wanna go messing things sup:

If you're going to re-install it then there's nothing to worry about.

rpm -e --nodeps imlib
rpm -ivh imlib-1.9.13-12.i386.rpm

bump

[Modorf]

what about doing the install of Eterm with --nodeps (no dependancies, which it seems you have).

N

[sasKuatch]

also try using the full package name when installing

I do an 'ls', then use the mouse to select the packag I want to install, and middle-click to paste it after the 'rpm -ivh'. Makes it much easier, as well as ensuring no typos or possible dependency probs.
