package missing, won;t install dependency?

qwertyjjj · 12-02-2011, 06:48 AM

I get the following error when trying to install openvpn:

Code:

Why is the dependency not installed automatically?

Try a different mirror.

First do a search for that library:

Code:

yum search libgnutls.so.13

If it does not find a package w/library or library itself then try different repo. To see which repositories you are currently able to connect to do a:

Code:

yum repolist

If you need to add another repository then create a new document in the folder:

Code:

/etc/yum.repos.d/

you can name the file whatever you want; however it must end with .repo extension.

Inside document it must have 3 pieces of information:

Code:

[title]
name=hostnameOfServer
baseurl=[ftp/http/file]://pathOfRepository
enabled=1

Then use the repository list command above to verify new mirror ends up in list.

OR --download library online

If you go to rpm search, click on "advanced RPM search", select CentOS 5 and paste libgnutls.so.13 in the search field, hit enter. You will be taken to a page that tells you which package supplies that library as well as where to get it by clicking on it.
I posted this link to RPM search as it comes in handy when applicable repos are not configured.

Try downloading the rpm from here.

http://pkgs.org/download/libgnutls.so.13(GNUTLS_1_3)

this s why

if the ONLY repo installed and on is rpmforge
you WILL get errors
rpmforge is a bit incompatible with the red hat RHN
yum-priorities and yum-protectbase plugins NEED TO be installed and CONFIGURED !!!

otherwise you can 100% mess up the install

from the output in the first post
you do not have running the red hat ( or cent) base repo, nor the updates repo
BOTH a MUST HAVE !!!

what OS is this ?
RHEL5.7 ?
CentOS 5.7
or Scientific linux 5.7

Can't you install the dependencies manually?

Old thread but i was wondered some one tried the same and got stuck in openvpn on redhat

The same problem with libgnutls.so.13 i was trying to install openvpn in ec2 red-hat v 6.2 image

How do i install this one the rpm link seems to be broken as John VV said how do i configure the protectbase and other stuff?

Please guide me

Thanks
Raj

you read the instructions
I do NOT recommend "protectbase" unless you NEED it
" yum-priorities " i do recommend

and for RHEL 6 you might want to do a search of the red hat knowledge base
you DID PAY FOR the required license -- use it

your FIRST stop is the "knowledgebase "
login to red hat and do a search
https://access.redhat.com/knowledge/search
then if you can not find the instructions come back here

if you did not pay for red hat , then do not use it !

for CentOS 6 see the wiki
http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories
http://wiki.centos.org/PackageManagement/Yum/Priorities

raj47 · 04-09-2012, 11:41 PM

This can be done manually

wget ftp://rpmfind.net/linux/Mandriva/off...8.0.x86_64.rpm

if you are using red-hat 64bit

Openvpn for EL6 :

Disable the rpmforge repo, and use the package from the EPEL repo
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL

> http://download.fedoraproject.org/pu...6-5.noarch.rpm

( openvpn-2.2.1-1.el6.i686 http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel...1.el6.i686.rpm )
( openvpn-2.2.1-1.el6.x86_64 http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel...el6.x86_64.rpm )

knudfl,

I was trying to setup the openvpn server

I got few question on the server.conf on openvpn

Edit /etc/openvpn/server.conf changing the following options to:

local 172.18.100.101
dev tap0
up "/etc/openvpn/up.sh br0"
down "/etc/openvpn/down.sh br0"
;server 10.8.0.0 255.255.255.0
server-bridge 172.18.100.101 255.255.255.0 172.18.100.105 172.18.100.200
push "route 172.18.100.1 255.255.255.0"
push "dhcp-option DNS 172.18.100.20"
push "dhcp-option DOMAIN example.com"
tls-auth ta.key 0 # This file is secret
user nobody
group nogroup

what is my local ip ?

how to use the subnets

thanks
Puspharaj

Sorry, I don't know the application openvpn.

Just this : Do not replace the system gnutls with a random package.
( Your example : A Mandriva package.)

raj47 · 04-10-2012, 07:33 AM

knudfl,

What will happen if i use different rpm and should uninstall openvpn and remove the rpm then install EPEL repo ?

Thanks
raj

knudfl · 04-10-2012, 10:20 AM

Openvpn can be removed with # yum remove openvpn
Or : # rpm -e openvpn

Installing EPEL : # rpm -Uvh epel-release-6-5.noarch.rpm

About the rpmforge.repo :
Usually I would just move it to a backup folder :
cd /etc/yum.repos.d/ && mkdir rpmforge && mv rpmforge.repo rpmforge/
( Then it won't disturb installs or updates.
And rpmforge packages are not always compatible with epel packages.)
