Any fixes for this?
It really behooves both you and anyone who would like to help you for you to give more information than a terse dump of the error diagnostics that ensue when you try to run something unsuccessfully.
You need to specify details of the software you installed, the operating system on which it's running, platform software (e.g., the Java platform) and possibly the hardware hosting it all.
In particular, if you're installing RPMs and getting this kind of problem it suggests some sort of configuration problem in your system or that you're forcing installation in the face of unmet prerequisites. Ordinarily RPM won't allow the installation of a package whose prerequisites are not met, and most problems of incompatibilities or insufficiencies between the new software and your existing system setup are precluded.
If you don't give us details of the scenario, it's just an exercise in either guessing what happened or rotely requesting the necessary details behind of the problematic symptoms.

Thank you for your comments, points taken. I am running Suse 10.2 64bit on an AMD Turion based Acer. I installed via Yast Software Management module and did NOT instruct it to force install in the face of dependency issues. My analysis indicates that this has to do with Python not liking the character encoding of this European authored program, specifically the use of an umlaut. Python.org mentions this issue but I am not clear on the solution. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
