Hi,
I know I'm not the first to have problems with dependencies, but it's
the first time for me and I've been unable to find a page that tells me
actually what to do in this case.
I'm trying to install Mplayer.
I downloaded mplayer-gui-1.0pre2-1.i386.rpm and double-clicked on it.
and Kpackage reported the following:
error: failed dependencies:
mplayer-skin is needed by mplayer-gui-1.0pre2-1
mplayer-common = 1.0pre2 is needed by mplayer-gui-1.0pre2-1
libpng.so.2 is needed by mplayer-gui-1.0pre2-1
RESULT=1
so I went googling and found the first two files.
[Oh btw what's up with the whole program being 1.8M but the SKIN IS OVER
4M???]
mplayer-common was the first one to finish downloading, so I
double-clicked on it and got:
error: failed dependencies:
mplayer = 0.92 is needed by mplayer-common-0.92-1
RESULT=1
so now it seems I've got two programs saying they need each other, but
neither will install first...
What should I do next?
TIA for your help...
:)
