Software Installation - HELP!!!


Hey all,

While I am not a total newbie, I am still relatively new and need some help from you experts out there.

Here is the situation: I am running FC3 on my Dell laptop with a dualboot (Windows 2003 server). I am primarily using it to test web server functions and see how it handles for a few other things. I decided I wanted to play around with some music software and found RoseGarden. So I found the FC3 RPM for RoseGarden and downloaded it.

When I went to install it, it complained that it needed liblrdf.so.2. So I found the FC3 RPM for that and tried to install the liblrdf. That complained that it needed libraptor.so.1, so I found that FC3 RPM and ran it. The libraptor complained it needed libcrypto.so.0.9.7 and libssl.so.0.9.7.

As far as I can tell those both are part of the openssl package. I doubled checked and I seem to have openssl.0.9.7 installed. I thought I ran across a posting somewhere else about a bug in the new openssl that screws this up. I know i can uninstall v0.9.7 and install an older version, but I think I would have to reinstall a lot of other software (which I would rather not do).

Does anyone know a way to fix this? I thought I saw something about adding a entry to some conf file but couldn't make much sense of it. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Mike

Sounds like a classic case of RPM Hell. I don't know much about Fedora Core unfortanatly but have you tried using yum?

Unhappy

Anyone else have any ideas? I am still trying to find the page about the bug with openssl and those libraries, but no luck so far. I have a feeling I am going to need those libraries for other software installations. Any help is greatly appreciated!!
