Topic: SME 6.0 Devtools failed dependencies

[Jamie Nicholls]

I have a statellite card that I use in my linux box, but to install the driver I need to have the development tools.  I've downloaded from contribs.org.

I've found a list of dependencies I need for anaconda-7.3-7 but where do I download them from?  This is only the 2nd RPM package I've got through, there are bound to be more failed dependencies further along.  I never had this problem with 5.1.2 all the RPM packages installed with no problems with an install.sh script file.

All help is greatly appreciated.

When you try and install you will get notified of the exact packages required, all you need to do is find the matching rpm's as notified, put them in the same directory as the ones that you already have and run the install command again, do the install as follows  

rpm -Uvh *.rpm

If you have the packages that were specified in the fail notice all will be installed correctly. To find the packages you could try www.rpmfind.net or redhat, if you don't have what's required then nothing gets installed. Google is a likely way to find the rpms you need also
