Hello, Can anybody explain the following lines: When I first attempted to install xemacs there were a lot of missing dependencies, but I chipped away until I got to the missing libraries: libRCK and libcanna Philipp Thomas suggested I try pin. I had never heard of it, but I tried. pin said that it couldn't find the required archive.gz on the DVD and so I had to manage it manually. After completing the task I now get the following responses to quiery and install: # rpm -q xemacs-info-21.4.15-43.x86_64.rpm package xemacs-info-21.4.15-43.x86_64.rpm is not installed # rpm -i xemacs-info-21.4.15-43.x86_64.rpm package xemacs-info-21.4.15-43.x86_64.rpm is already installed This now occurs with other xemacs components. I hate 'that' other O.S., but it was always easy to install packages!!! Please help me to stick with Linux; I really want to make it work. Regards, Colin
