[opensuse] Trying to resolve a dependency.
Hello all, I'm trying to install a package that depends on libasound.so.2. It is expecting it to be in /lib however in SuSE it is located in /usr/lib/ In /usr/lib there are three libraries that look like this: Libasound.so Libasound.so.2 Libasound.so.2.0.0 I've tried making sim links to these in /lib/ but still the rpm will not install. I've even tried copying the libraries over to that directory but no change. Do any of you have any suggestions as to where I'm going wrong with this? Thanks Darragh -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

The names are case-sensitive, so unless you've renamed them to lowercase, "Libasound.so.2" will not match "libasound.so.2". Try making lowercase symlinks. Or install with --nodeps. /Per Jessen, Zürich -- http://www.spamchek.com/ - your spam is our business. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
Hello, Thanks for your response. The libasound.so.2 file in /etc/lib is all lower case. The sim link in /lib is the same.
