libfox1.4-dev on fedora 7


Hi is there a libfox1.4-dev for fedora since the only one am getting is under debian?

Que 2, i have tried installing libpq.so.4 using yum under fedora 7 and its returning a message saying there is no such file in the repository.

Is there a site i can get it cuz i have looked everywhere and i cant seem to find it.

If there's no RPM then Debian package info pages at least list a D/L for the original tarball.

No you haven't ;-p rpmfind.net, rpm.pbone.net or rpmseek.com should show it's in "postgresql-libs".

I have searched for the libfox-dev but all the mirrors am gettin are inaccessible and therefore i couldnt download. Quick question, since what i got from rpmsearch is a .deb. Is it possible to install it in fedora 7?

Again whenever i do a yum -y install postgresql-libs.i386, it tells me the software is installed. yet there is no libfox-dev. How is this possible?


Thanks for taking your time to respond.

Use "alien". Alternatively install from tarball: http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool...34.orig.tar.gz

No, libpq.so.4 is in postgresql-libs. You know? The *other* lib you asked about?
