------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-25-07 19:12 ------- Use urpmi to install packages. Urpmi will handle dependencies, and will install libncurses5-devel, which provides ncurses-devel. -- Configure bugmail: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: UNCONFIRMED creation_date: description: Trying to install the kernel-source rpm from cd3 (using rpm -ivh, because I don't really have the CDs handy, just the iso images on disk), I'm told that it requires the ncurses-devel package. However, ncurses-devel isn't on any of the CDs. Here's what I'm seeing from a terminal: [EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# rpm -ivh ~newren/kernel-source-2.4.21-3mdk.i586.rpm warning: /home/newren/kernel-source-2.4.21-3mdk.i586.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 70771ff3 error: Failed dependencies: ncurses-devel is needed by kernel-source-2.4.21-3mdk 1003 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:iso/mandrake-9.2-beta1# mount -o loop MandrakeLinux-9.2beta1-CD1.i586.iso empty/ 1004 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:iso/mandrake-9.2-beta1# find empty/ -name "ncurses*" empty/Mandrake/RPMS/ncurses-5.3-1.20030215.3mdk.i586.rpm 1005 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:iso/mandrake-9.2-beta1# umount empty/ 1006 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:iso/mandrake-9.2-beta1# mount -o loop MandrakeLinux-9.2beta1-CD2.i586.iso empty/ 1007 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:iso/mandrake-9.2-beta1# find empty/ -name "ncurses*" 1008 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:iso/mandrake-9.2-beta1# umount empty/ 1009 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:iso/mandrake-9.2-beta1# mount -o loop MandrakeLinux-9.2beta1-CD3.i586.iso empty/ 1010 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:iso/mandrake-9.2-beta1# find empty/ -name "ncurses*" empty/Mandrake/RPMS3/ncurses-extraterms-5.3-1.20030215.3mdk.i586.rpm 1011 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:iso/mandrake-9.2-beta1# umount empty/ So it appears that only ncurses and ncurses-extraterms have been included on the CDs making it impossible (without using --nodeps, which I did) to install the kernel-source rpm.
