So why are you trying to install a Fedora 4 package
to EL 4 / CentOS 4 ? ?
Glib-2.4.7 is default and cannot be changed.
'pango-1.6.0' is probably already installed ?
Please try : rpm -qa | grep pango
The command : cat /etc/redhat-release
.. will tell, which OS you have.
..
"Your logo indicates a Redhat Linux."
logo? you mean $? Other linux systems dont use $? Sorry for i dont know other linux systems except redhat.
So why are you trying to install a Fedora 4 package
to EL 4 / CentOS 4 ? ?
how do you know it is a Fedora 4 package? I dont know how to tell a package belongs to Fedora, redhat or CentOS. Can you tell me how to do this? Thanks a lot!
Distribution: PCLinuxOS2023 Fedora38 + 50+ other Linux OS, for test only.

Rep:
Can you see the red hat and the penguin ?
( under your name )
That's a Redhat logo.
pango-1.10.3-1.1.fc4.nr.i386.rpm
i.e. fc4 means Fedora 4.
RH EL4 ( AS4 ) is based on Fedora 2, but has
glib-2.4.7 like Fedora 3.
Firefox can be installed, why not ask Redhat ?
And if you have no support / Redhat account,
then CentOS4.8 packages can be used.
The library package names are evolution28-<name>
and installs to /usr/evolution28/lib/
and will thus not destroy your system.
( Installing the way you try, will trash Gnome
and other gtk / glib applications.) http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...teps-743908/#6
