problems with rpm install
i am a little confused by something. i am trying to install an rpm package but i need to resolve some dependencies first. this is where i run into problems:
when trying to install libfontconfig i get the error "fontconfig is required by libfontconfig" so i try to install fontconfig but i get the error "libfontconfig is required by fontconfig" i checked the dependincies and sure enough one is required by the other. how could this be possible? anyone know how to get around this circle jerk of dependencies? cheers, justin |
just install them at the same time, in one command.

thanks for the help ak but since i didnt know the syntax of how to install 2 packages at once on the command line i found another way to get it to work. i installed one and had it ignore dependencies and then installed the other and it seemed to work fine. now i have another problem.
Anyone know where to get libkutils? cheers, justin |
the syntax? you just type both file names one after another... not exactly cryptic.
check rpmfind.net for packages not on your distro cd's. failing that, google. |
found it on google. it is part of the kdelibs package.
i figured that is how you did it but to tell the truth i figured out the no dep check solution before i read your post. cheers, justin |
