Cannot install dependencies for Cairo-dock (Fedora 11)
 

I'm following this this tutorial, and everything goes perfectly fine up until the "Installez dependences (change XXXX)" part.

The name of the file is cairo-dock-2.0.8.2-1.fc12.src.rpm, and I swear I'm typing it in right, and I'm CDed in the proper directory. However, when I try to do that step, I get this output:

Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit
warning: rpmts_HdrFromFdno: Header V3 RSA/SHA256 signature: NOKEY, key ID 16ca1a56
Error: Could not open cairo-dock-2.0.8.2-1.fc12.src.rpm
There was a problem getting the build deps, exiting:
Could not open local rpm file: cairo-dock-2.0.8.2-1.fc12.src.rpm: RPM Error opening Package

Anyone know what to do?

rpm file maybe corrupted. try re-downloading or get it from another mirror

also try http://www.rpmfind.net

Thanks for the reply, but it's doing the same thing. I downloaded an rpm file with the exact same name from that site you sent me, and it gave the same message. Am I doing something wrong, or is this rpm just not compatible with Fedora 11?

please try this and post exactly what you're getting:

ftp://195.220.108.108/linux/rpmfusio....fc11.i586.rpm

Here is my exact input and the resulting output (after downloading the file to the Download folder):

[D-Flo@DFloLaptop Download]$ su

[root@DFloLaptop Download]# cd /home/D-Flo/Download
[root@DFloLaptop Download]# yum-builddep -y cairo-dock-2.0.3-2.fc11.i586.rpm

be root and cd into Downloads folder and do this:

rpm -i cairo-dock-2.0.3-2.fc11.i586.rpm

Okay, this is what came up

EDIT: I just checked my applications and Cairo Dock is listed. I opened it, and the dock opens, but there is a black background behind the actual dock.

You already have cairo dock installed.

I have not used cairo dock, so i wont be able to answer you correctly;

Isn't the thing working properly? maybe something wrong with the configuration

Yes, it seems to be installed, however I've researched my problem and it's occurring because I don't have 3D acceleration. This stems a whole other issue I've been battling with my ATI HD Radeon card. That's a whole other thread (if you would like to help out, it's here http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...nstall-758280/ )

Thanks for everything
