Has anyone here got JuK to work on Mandrake 9.1?

I'm keen to try out Juk, a music jukebox app that I've heard is very good.

I have juk-1.1-2tex.i586.rpm and when I
# rpm -i juk-1.1-2tex.i586.rpm
it I'm told that:
kdelibs >= 3.1.2 is needed by juk-1.1-2tex

If I then
# rpm -i kdelibs-3.1.4-1.20031119.1ark.i586.rpm
I get
error: failed dependencies:
qt >= 3.0.3 is needed by kdelibs-3.1.4-1.20031119.1ark
cups-libs >= 1.1.12 is needed by kdelibs-3.1.4-1.20031119.1ark
libMagick.so.6 is needed by kdelibs-3.1.4-1.20031119.1ark
libqt-base-mt.so.3 is needed by kdelibs-3.1.4-1.20031119.1ark
libXinerama.so.1 is needed by kdelibs-3.1.4-1.20031119.1ark

Now, this page http://rpmfind.rediris.es/rpm2html/l...rama.so.1.html seems to tell me that libXinerama.so.1 is part of libxfree86-4.3-30mdk.i586.rpm, but if I
# rpm -i libxfree86-4.3-30mdk.i586.rpm
I get told:
error: failed dependencies:
XFree86 < 4.3-24mdk conflicts with libxfree86-4.3-30mdk

This implies to me that I need to update XFree86 to use JuK on Mandy 9.1. Updating XFree86 is intimidating to think about. Is that the best thing to do?

i've got stuck with the same problem trying to install videolan on this redhat 9.


does anyone has a cheap solution??
in redhat the libXinerama.so.1 is included in the rpm:

XFree86-libs-4.3.0-37.i386.rpm

but if i try to install it all i get is:

[root@client4 vlc_rpm]# rpm -U XFree86-libs-4.3.0-37.i386.rpm
warning: XFree86-libs-4.3.0-37.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 897da07a

what da?

cm'on no one has ideas???

I got juk working in the end, although it is silent, it does run. :/

Since KDE 3.2, juk has been part of kde-multimedia. If you
haven't got Juk installed, check your KDE version first. You may need to
upgrade KDE.

To update KDE:
At the easy urpmi page, http://plf.zarb.org/~nanardon/ you will find two
mirrors of texstar.
Choose one of them and add it with the urpmi.addmedia-command like this for
Mandrake 9.1:

urpmi.addmedia texstar
ftp://ftp.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/dist...drake/9.1/rpms
with hdlist.cz

Or you can try this mirror:

urpmi.addmedia texstar
ftp://ftp.bahcesehir.edu.tr/pub/texs...drake/9.1/rpms with hdlist.cz

Both of these mirrors are unreachable sometimes. If you don't reach one of
the mirror, try the other. You can remove a mirror with:
urpmi.removemedia texstar
and then you can try to add the other mirror instead. If you will try to
add both sources, you can make up a unike name to the second source.
Example textar2:
urpmi.addmedia texstar2
ftp://ftp.bahcesehir.edu.tr/pub/texs...drake/9.1/rpms with hdlist.cz

Then you can upgrade kde like this:
urpmi kdebase

Or you can do all available upgrades:

urpmi --auto-select

Sometimes you would like to downloadd the hdlist.cz file again, to get a
fresh list of the packages out there:

urpmi.update texstar

Or you can update all of your sources:

urpmi.update -a

Then you can do 'urpmi --autoselect'

KDE should then be updated for juk. try

#urpmi juk

You can run Juk without KDE running, as long as it is installed. e.g. you can run it in IceWM, as long as there is a KDE installation on the PC so that it can access the files/libararies. Juk might start a little slow though, as it will need to initialise various KDE things in the background (dcop, kbuildsyscoca, and others) before Juk can show.
