what rpm of karamba i need for redhat 9 ?

root@10 Desktop]# rpm -Uhv superkaramba-0.29-0.fdr.0.src.rpm
warning: superkaramba-0.29-0.fdr.0.src.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID ff6382fa
error: cannot create %sourcedir /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES

whats the prob ?:(

Someone ?

Run it as root. I think thats your problem.

Also, be warned.....Karamba is kinda harder to set up than you think. I saw those screens and I was amazed. When I got it all installed, I realized that it would take too much work for me to configure it the way I wanted it and just went back to my normal themes/decorations etc..

Just a warning!

ok thanks for the warining but still i want it
and i install it as a root it the same eror

Maybe you must rebuild the package, because is a source package ( *.src.rpm).

how i can rebuild it ?

Maybe with rpm --rebuild (i don't use RedHat).

where i can download it ?

It's in your distribution.

superkaramba-0.29-0.fdr.0.src.rpm

This is my rpm

what shold be the command ?

Try rpm --rebuild superkaramba-0.29-0.fdr.0.src.rpm
(i don't know if it works because i use slackware).

[root@10 tal]# rpm --rebuild superkaramba-0.29-0.fdr.0.src.rpm

The last eror

You mas log as root when install or rebuild packages.

You can try to download source of superkaramba and compile it by yourself.

I log on as a root and still the same eror

any ideas ?

Can someone give me a vaild link for superkaramba ?
i am on Redhat 9.

thanks :)
