looking for a repository that has the necessary files needed to install Ardour. Any help is greatly appriciated.

Centos 5.4

the needed items are as follows..

Missing Dependency: librasqal.so.0 is needed by package ardour-2.7.1-0.2.el5.ccrma.i386 (/ardour-2.7.1-0.2.el5.ccrma.i386)
Missing Dependency: libaubio.so.2 is needed by package ardour-2.7.1-0.2.el5.ccrma.i386 (/ardour-2.7.1-0.2.el5.ccrma.i386)
Missing Dependency: libslv2.so.9 is needed by package ardour-2.7.1-0.2.el5.ccrma.i386 (/ardour-2.7.1-0.2.el5.ccrma.i386)
Missing Dependency: librdf.so.0 is needed by package ardour-2.7.1-0.2.el5.ccrma.i386 (/ardour-2.7.1-0.2.el5.ccrma.i386)


I have the following repositories installed already..

adobe-linux-i386.repo
CentOS-Base.repo
CentOS-Media.repo
elrepo.repo
epel.repo
epel-testing.repo
mirrors-rpmforge
rpmforge.repo
rpmfusion-free-updates.repo
rpmfusion-free-updates-testing.repo
rpmfusion-nonfree-updates.repo
rpmfusion-nonfree-updates-testing.repo

The package , ardour , you have found, is from the CCRMA.repo .

Suggest : only add the ccrma repo temporarily to install ardour.
( You already have a non recommended mix of repo's.)

rpm -Uvh http://ccrma.stanford.edu/planetccrm...rma.noarch.rpm
.. will do .. you already have 'epel'.
.. and # 'yum install ardour' should work.
.....
..... Good luck .. ..

what repos would you remove? I don't want to end up starting from scratch lol..

Once I add that repo, should I just go into /etc/yum.repo.d and delete it?

sorry for the newb questions,, I'm still trying to get a grasp on this... Won't be too much longer before I'm more comfortable..

In fact I never used the ccrma repo, so that's a "don't
know". ( ccrma = supported : no.)

' rpmforge ' can be out of sync with CentOS updates.
( May be rpmfusion too. )

If a certain application can't be installed : no harm done.
Updating all packages and not all goes well : difficult to
trace, what caused it.

Hiding repo's : edit enabled=1 to enabled=0 or move the
file to a ' backup/ ' folder.
.....

First dependency can be found at http://rpms.plnet.rs under "plnet-test" folder/repo. rasqal package
Also forth dependency can be found at http://rpms.plnet.rs under "plnet-test" folder/repo. redland package

I recompiled them from Fedora repository for OpenOffice 3.1.1 but I can not claim that it works OK. Be carefull. Also, my packeges are not yet signed.

From http://rpm.pbone.net:
First dependnacy: librasqal.so.0:

Second dependnacy: libaubio.so.2:
Third dependnacy: libslv2.so.9:
Forth dependnacy: librdf.so.0:

# 5 @ DrLove73 : No, you don't do it that way.

Downloading packages not fitting together is absolutely last resort.
Please don't suggest it, when a repo is availabe : ccrma.repo + epel.

Using 'yum' or the Package Manager is very important
not to get an inconsistent OS.! !

Ah, this is good to know. This was my first though in the beginning!

I never said he should not use yum. On my page I gave are repo files for using the repository. He would have read it. And links were to give him names of the rpm's he needs.

He DID just downloaded arbour rpm without the repo. And already having few repositories set, I thought there was a reason he avoided repositories+yum.

@digitolx: Beside Base repos + centos + extras, I only use epel repo always active (and my carefully compiled plnet-downloaded and plnet-releases repos made for my convenience to install best desktop applications without the need for the additional repositories).

RPM-forge, beside few excellent programs without many dependencies, does not agree with epel. When I choose packages to add, I rather choose them from atrpms-stable, and I install (if possible) kernel modules from epel or elrepo repositories. SO, do not mix rpmforge/rpmfussion enabled with epel and/or atrpms.

Here are my thoughts on what to use on CentOS 5.x with links to all the mayor repositories. Just keep in mind not to mix them much (as less as possible).
