TeamViewer on ScientificLinux (RedHAT base)

mbzadegan · 03-10-2016, 04:09 AM

Hi everybody,
I want to install TeamViewer on my desktop and I downloaded Linux Base TeamViewer but when I install it, This Error noted to me:

Code:

[user@Linux ~]$ rpm -ivh teamviewer.i686.rpm 
warning: teamviewer.i686.rpm: Header V4 DSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID 72db573c: NOKEY
error: Failed dependencies:
	libpng12.so.0 is needed by teamviewer-11.0.53191-0.i686
[user@Linux ~]$

Then I install libpng12-devel by yum but still I have that Error!

What can I do?

Are you running Scientific Linux 7+? Why not install it using yum? On my Centos system,

Also, you shouldn't need to install *-devel for libpng12.so.0 for these shared libraries. You can find which package provides this library using repoquery.

For example,

Code:

$ repoquery --whatprovides /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0
libpng12-0:1.2.50-6.el7.i686
libpng12-0:1.2.50-7.el7_2.i686

While looking at this I didn't even know yum could go to an internet location. Humm. Learn something every day. https://www.freeittip.com/how-to-ins...r-on-centos-7/

yum install http://download.teamviewer.com/downl...iewer.i686.rpm

Yup! That's what I typically do if I am installing something that's not in repos.

The below is directly from https://www.teamviewer.com/en/help/3...ion.aspx#other

RedHat, CentOS, Fedora, SUSE

You need the teamviewer.i686.rpm package.

For installing TeamViewer, we recommend using the graphical installer.

If you prefer to use the command line or if there is no graphical installer available you can use either one of these commands as an administrator:

yum install teamviewer_11.0.xxxxx.i686.rpm (recommended, as it will install missing dependencies)
zypper install teamviewer_11.0.xxxxx.i686.rpm
rpm -i teamviewer_11.0.xxxxx.i686.rpm

In case “yum” is asking for a missing public key, you can download it here and import the key by using following command as an administrator:

rpm --import TeamViewer_Linux_PubKey.asc

After importing the public key, please execute the “yum”-command again to install the TeamViewer rpm.

Thanks nonamedotc,
Installing The libpng12-0:1.2.50-7.el7_2.i686 resolve my problem true!

BTW, My Scientific Linux yum Repository have not any teamviewer and I must be installed it with rpm command.
Thanks again.

Not necessary. For your information, yum can be installed on a downloaded rpm. That is, you can download an rpm and use yum like this -

Code:

 yum install /home/username/Downloads/my_downloaded_program.rpm

Alternatively, as jefro pointed out you can pass the the download link directly to the rpm file.

Hope this clarifies my point. Glad to hear your issue is solved!
