Title: installation problem
Post by: pacman79 on November 30, 2002, 04:08:00 pm

I have the Mandrake 9.0
When i try to install crystal-planeshift-snapshot-0.0.4-1.i386.rpm, it says :

Quote

error: failed dependencies:
        libpng.so.2   is needed by crystal-planeshift-snapshot-0.0.4-1

But libpng comes with Mandrake 9.0 and it\'s allready installed on my system.

Can someone tell me what should i do ?
Thanks in advance !!

Perhaps you can try to add the commandline option to ignore dependencies? I don\'t know what that option is but I know it is possible. Perhaps check the man page.

rpm -i (or Uhv...not sure which to use) crystal-planeshift-snapshot-0.0.4-1.i386.rpm --nodeps

if you have further problems use -force in adition to --nodeps

Thanks, but i just found the solution.
I had a look for libpng.so.2 on rpmfind.net and i installed the following rpm
http://www.rpmfind.net//linux/RPM/mandrake/updates/8.1/RPMS/libpng2-1.0.12-2.1mdk.i586.html

Now it seems to work fine :D
