Hello,

I've just managed to compile my own copy of 3DDesktop for Fedora Core 2. However, when I go to install my newly made RPM that I compiled from a source RPM, it tells me I need a file called "libgl.so.1". I looked for this file on my system and I found it, but somehow RPM doesn't see it.

I'm not that experienced with the intricacies of RPM. I've had several RPM type programs that require specific files that RPM can't find, even though I have confirmed they are on my system.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

This is why I don't like rpm. It is completely wrong about that dependency not existing, but still thinks it is smarter than you. :D

You can try adding --nodeps and --force to the rpm command, but I'm not sure what effect that will have on your rpm database.

What directory does libgl.so.1 reside in?
