hi everbody,
i am trying to install wvdial-1.61-3.fc13.i686.rpm from last two days on centos5.5 but it is demanding for dependencies.these are written below

Code:

libuniconf.so.4.6 is needed by wvdial-1.61-3.fc13.i686

        libwvbase.so.4.6 is needed by wvdial-1.61-3.fc13.i686
        libwvstreams.so.4.6 is needed by wvdial-1.61-3.fc13.i686
        libwvutils.so.4.6 is needed by wvdial-1.61-3.fc13.i686
        rpmlib(FileDigests) <= 4.6.0-1 is needed by wvdial-1.61-3.fc13.i686

        rpmlib(PayloadIsXz) <= 5.2-1 is needed by wvdial-1.61-3.fc13.i686

i have tried alot but could not find these dependencies.
is there any huge rpm which can resolve all dependencies requirement?

Hello,

Apparently you didn't try the first option of them all: search with Google. If you search with Google for :

Code:

which rpm provides libuniconf.so.4.6

you'll get several references pointing to the libwvstreams-4.6 package. I'm guessing that's what you're missing.

Kind regards,

Eric

Hello,

Just thought of another way, that is, if your yum repos are set up correctly. You can use yum to search the repositories and find out what packages provides a certain file like below:

Code:

[root@centostid /]# yum provides */libuniconf.so
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
 * addons: centos.mirror.xtratelecom.es
 * base: mirror.in2p3.fr
 * extras: mirror.in2p3.fr
 * updates: centos.mirror.xtratelecom.es
libwvstreams-devel-4.2.2-2.1.i386 : Development files for WvStreams.
Repo        : base
Matched from:
Filename    : /usr/lib/libuniconf.so



libwvstreams-devel-4.2.2-2.1.x86_64 : Development files for WvStreams.
Repo        : base
Matched from:
Filename    : /usr/lib64/libuniconf.so

Sorry for the delay in that solution, I didn't even think about the obvious. What strikes me as odd is that the dependencies didn't get resolved automatically. Or are you installing manually, that is, not with your package manager?

Kind regards,

Eric

PS: Sorry, my output is from 64bit machine, but yours should give you similar results if set up correctly.
