Thanks for the constructive feedback. Well, I don't have an x86_64 box so, yes, it's up to users to test it and give me feedback. But if you're willing to sponsor me an AMD64, I'd be glad to build all my RPMs on x86_64 and even test some of them. Anyway, you're getting this broken dependency because you're installing the IA32 RPM of smart, that - - as it has been built on IA32 - includes an rpmhelper.so that, in turn, requires rpmmodule.so from rpm-python. But it's not finding it because you're using the rpm-python for IA64, that has rpmmodule.so in /usr/lib64 and not /usr/lib. Solution: install the x86_64 build of smart. If you can't find it (*), rebuild the src.rpm on your box. (*) usually Detlef Reichelt kindly provides x86_64 builds of some of my packages in his suser-drcux repository: http://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/misc/suser-drcux/100/x86_64/ksmarttray-0.40-8.g... http://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/misc/suser-drcux/100/x86_64/smart-0.40-8.guru.s... http://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/misc/suser-drcux/100/x86_64/smart-debuginfo-0.4... Detlef, could you please build my latest smart-0.40-10 RPM ? :) cheers - -- -o) Pascal Bleser http://linux01.gwdg.de/~pbleser/ /\\ <pascal.bleser@skynet.be> <guru@unixtech.be> _\_v The more things change, the more they stay insane. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFDa8t6r3NMWliFcXcRAnLqAJ49vGDp5nTDZFx0HnEyYgqMDhUgPgCeIcko iDaVj5nZwzw5ZvBuKPeGytc= =j5yt -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
