libGLU.so.1
I installed the new mesa and now when trying to run opengl screensavers it says it can't find "libGLU.so.1" where do i get that?!
|
It's on the first RH installation CD. Look for the package file:
XFree86-Mesa-libGLU-4.2.0-72.i386.rpm Hope this helps, Rick |
Ah thanks a ton!
|
Ok I can't install the package off the cd now because :
[root@localhost /]# rpm -e XFree86-Mesa-libGLU-4.2.0 error: Failed dependencies: libGLU.so.1 is needed by (installed) qt-3.0.5-17 libGLU.so.1 is needed by (installed) XFree86-tools-4.2.0-72 libGLU.so.1 is needed by (installed) xscreensaver-4.05-6 libGLU.so.1 is needed by (installed) wine-cvs-opengl-021903-1 libGLU.so.1 is needed by (installed) kdeartwork-screensavers-3.0.3-3 [root@localhost /]# Any ideas on how to install it anyway.. or is that impossible... bah! |

You could try to force the removal but that sounds like it'd be pretty risky. Anyone else tried to force rpm to do this? And survive? But this all sounds a bit wierd: rpm thinks it's installed yet your original post said that Mesa couldn't find libGLU? It sure looks as though Mesa was already installed. At least part of it was installed. I feel like I missed the beginning of this movie. :-) Could you fill us all in? |
I think i was going through some walkthrough for installing nvidia drivers and it told me to delete something with GL in it.. it must have been this. What a bummer. The hell im gonna go through reinstalling all that stuff.. Is there any way to get the files from that rpm and install them manually?!?
|
why are you trying to remove it at all??? if for some reason it can't find the file, try freshening it, or just forcing it to install again
rpm -Uvh --force blah.rpm rpm -Fvh blah.rpm then ensure that it is on the system, look to check it's there... ls /usr/lib/libGLU.so.1 should work fine really.... |
I tried to --force the rpm but it warned me of something and it didn't work

so where's the error message? that all looks right.

Let's see: 1.) Upgraded libGLU but rpm complains about libGLU already being installed. (OK) 2.) Freshened libGLU (no errors) (OK) 3.) Tries to erase the libGLU package file but rpm rightly complains that that is NOT installed. 4.) Tries to erase the package but rpm warns of dependency problems. (OK) 5.) Forced an upgrade of the package. (OK) SchwarzeFeen: Step three is the only place where an error message was issued that was legit. The other things look acceptable. Are you saying that libGLU is still not found? |
Yup. I have no file of that name. Im confused. Is it possible it is corrupted or broken or something?
