This is just an RPM dependency problem. You've two options: Install a version of openobex that provides libopenobex-1.0.so.0, like: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/2/i386/os/Fedora/RPMS/openobex-1.0.0-5.i386.rpm Because this is a FC2 RPM, that may cause dependency problems if something else depends on your current version of openobex. Also, yum or up2date might try and automatically upgrade you to a different version - just be aware of that. Your symlinking of the libraries didn't work because RPM doesn't look in /usr/lib for dependency information, it looks in the RPM database. If you can't do the above, then you could force RPM to install the package with the --force option, ignoring dependency problems. However, this would probably break other applications, meaning you're much better off with the first solution. -- Ruaidhri ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference & EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices Agile & Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects & Teams * Testing & QA Security * Process Improvement & Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf _______________________________________________ Multisync-users mailing list Multisync-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/multisync-users
