help: install pine package in mandrake 10.0
 

hi,

i've been struggling to install pico in mandrake 10.0 since i never get used to vi.

i have downloaded/installed pine-4.50-1.1mdk.i586.rpm and also installed openssl-0.9.7d.tar.gz since pine asked for certain files in that openssl package, but everytime i do rpm package installation, it still asked for the same files

[root@localhost orion]# rpm -ivh pine-4.50-1.1mdk.i586.rpm
warning: pine-4.50-1.1mdk.i586.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 22458a98
error: Failed dependencies:
libcrypto.so.0 is needed by pine-4.50-1.1mdk
libssl.so.0 is needed by pine-4.50-1.1mdk
[root@localhost orion]# whereis libcrypto.so.0
libcrypto.so: /usr/lib/libcrypto.so
[root@localhost orion]# whereis libssl.so.0
libssl.so: /usr/lib/libssl.so
[root@localhost orion]#

i've tried with other pine packages, namely pine-4.53-3.i386.rpm, pine-4.61-1.i386.rpm, and pine.tar.gz, but could get none of them installed.

please help

Make the things simple!
 

The best way to install packages in Mandrake is by means of <urpmi> tool in command line or "Mandrake Control Center" in gui mode.

In your case:
- open a terminal
- make yourself root - by means of su
- type:and the package and all dependencies will be installed for you like a magic.

Take a look at:

for better explanation, and ask if anything goes wrong.

hi,

i tried above, here's what i got:

[orion@localhost orion]$ su
Password:
[root@localhost orion]# urpmi pine
no package named pine
[root@localhost orion]#


???

Re: Make the things simple!
 

i got it:newbie:

by following that link, i used Easy urpmi page and installed pine package from 'install software' from GNOME's control center.

thank you so much, i've been pulling my hair because of the lack of pico since i migrated to Mandrake from Redhat a couple weeks ago
