how to solve failed dependency when dependency exists
 
Hello all,

Can someone tell me how to resolve this problem? I'm trying to install the RPM file
<pips-spr300_310-cups-2.6.2-1.i386.rpm> so I can install my printer, an Epson Stylus
Photo R300. I found both the RPM and the .tar file on Epson's site. The .tar file is <pips-spr300_310-2.6.2> and I have searched everywhere and tried everything I thought
might help, but the following is returned whenever I try to install the RPM:

[root@localhost dcramer]# cd /home/dcramer/rpms_files
[root@localhost rpms_files]# rpm -iv pips-spr300_310-cups-2.6.2-1.i386.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
libcrypto.so.0.9.6 is needed by pips-spr300_310-cups-2.6.2-1
libssl.so.0.9.6 is needed by pips-spr300_310-cups-2.6.2-1
[root@localhost rpms_files]#

even though both files exist in /usr/lib. I also tried copying both files to the /usr/local/lib
directory with no change. The only thing I haven't tried is trying to create a link to the RPM
but I don't know how to proceed.

On the other hand, if I try to install from the .tar file, I get the following:

[root@localhost gz_files]# cd /home/dcramer/gz_files/pips-spr300_310-2.6.2
[root@localhost pips-spr300_310-2.6.2]# ./configure

I'm running Fedora Core 2, kernel version 2.6.5-1.358, and gcc 3.4, on an Athlon 900
with 512 MB. If you need more information, let me know. Thanks in advance.

Nasty :(.

Try forcing a non-dependency check:

rpm -Uvh pips-spr300_310-cups-2.6.2-1.i386.rpm --nodeps

Although many would not recommend that, I've got nearly everything I needed installed that way.. including emulators in Sun JDS, and never had any problems...

Good luck!

how to solve failed dependency when dependency exists
 
Hi Megaman,

Thanks for your fast reply. I tried the --nodeps switch a couple of days ago and it didn't seem to make a difference. Konsole took several minutes to bring up the command prompt again, the RPM was shown as broken, and synaptic would not allow me to attempt to reinstall. Plus, I still do not have a listing for the R300 in the
driver list. Is there a way to force synaptic to see an individual RPM that has been D/L'd to a (probably) non-standard path? Thanks again.
