The thing I need some feedback on is that I specified the Requires parameter listing out what appear to be the dependent libs & etc. I need to know if you try this rpm on your system and it reports that it won't install due to dependency issues. (The adventurous are encouraged to try --force and --nodeps to see if the rpm will work anyway.)

Well, I couldn't install it in Mandrake 9.0 nor Mandrake 9.1.

Thanks for testing it.

These are the failed dependencies for Mandrake 9.0:

[root@...191... ddiaz]# rpm -i inkscape-0.37-1.mdk90.i586.rpm error: failed dependencies: gtk+-2.0 >= 2.0.0 is needed by inkscape-0.37-1 libfontconfig.so.1 is needed by inkscape-0.37-1 libsigc-1.2.so.5 is needed by inkscape-0.37-1 libXft.so.2 is needed by inkscape-0.37-1 libXrandr.so.2 is needed by inkscape-0.37-1 libstdc++.so.5(GLIBCPP_3.2.2) is needed by inkscape-0.37-1

Okay thanks, this is exactly what I was looking for feedback on.

Would you mind doing the following:

$ rpm -q | grep fontconfig $ rpm -q | grep -i xft $ rpm -q | grep 'stdc++' $ rpm -q | grep sigc

That should give an idea if you have the dependencies and I just haven't set up the Requires section properly.

Also, please try force-installing it:

$ rpm -i --force --nodeps inkscape-0.37-1.mdk90.i586.rpm

And if that works try running it and see if it works or not. If it doesn't work, then the dependency errors are correct and what we want; if it does work, then something's wacky and needs more study.

And these are for Mandrake 9.1:

[root@...192... downs]# rpm -i inkscape-0.37-1.mdk90.i586.rpm error: failed dependencies: gtk+-2.0 >= 2.0.0 is needed by inkscape-0.37-1 libsigc-1.2.so.5 is needed by inkscape-0.37-1

Interesting. My box at home is mdk90 but I've done some updates to it; perhaps it's closer to a mdk91 box now.

Hmm, I'm surprised the gtk+ lib didn't work. I'll have to look at that. I didn't even list sigc in the dependencies section so it's odd that it would show up at all. I don't think I've updated that lib on my system - let me know what version you have and that might narrow it down.

Thanks again.

Well, rpm -q complains at me, so I guess this was -qa. Here is the output for all of these.

[root@...191... ddiaz]# rpm -qa | grep fontconfig [root@...191... ddiaz]# rpm -qa | grep -i xft [root@...191... ddiaz]# rpm -qa | grep 'stdc++' libstdc++2.10-2.96-0.80mdk libstdc++5-devel-3.2-1mdk libstdc++5-3.2-1mdk [root@...191... ddiaz]# rpm -qa | grep sigc libsigc++1.0-1.0.4-5mdk

Hmm, so it looks like you do not have the fontconfig or xft dependencies, so those error messages are correct.

The libstdc++ dependency is a little perplexing. I hadn't specified libstdc++ in my Requires section; perhaps the problem is that I need to do that, with a conditional that it should be version x or newer.

...

That should give an idea if you have the dependencies and I just haven't set up the Requires section properly.

Also, please try force-installing it:

$ rpm -i --force --nodeps inkscape-0.37-1.mdk90.i586.rpm

Yeah, I was surprised myself at the GTK+ stuff. Yet Inkscape relies on libsigc++ 1.2.5, doesn't it? I had to install it for the CVS version one month ago in the mdk90 computer (and Yellowdog as well). I do have libsigc in mdk91, but it's /usr/lib/libsigc-1.0.so.0.0.0

Yes, it depends on libsigc++ and that's a new dependency. Here's what I have installed:

{bryce@...195...} ~/rpm/SPECS (13): rpm -qa | grep libsigc++ libsigc++1.0-devel-1.0.4-5mdk libsigc++-devel-1.2.5-fr1 libsigc++-examples-1.0.4-5mdk libsigc++-1.2.5-fr1 libsigc++1.0-1.0.4-5mdk

Note that I don't think libsigc and libsigc++ are the same thing for our purposes.

I will check with the --force and --nodeps as soon as I get home.

Cool, let us know what you find.

I've uploaded i386 and i686 versions of Inkscape 0.37.

Done:

[ddiaz@...192... ddiaz]$ inkscape inkscape: error while loading shared libraries: libsigc-1.2.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

It seems that it won't really go on without libsigc++-1.2.5.

Greetings!
