Ok, a follow up. While the install completed and setupWPO2000 ran, the programs still crash immediately with or without the export LC_ALL=en I would like to hear from anyone with SuSE 6.3 that followed my steps to install the product whether they have the same crash or whether the programs work for them. I want to try to pinpoint whether the problem is with my system or with WPO2K. Thanks, Avi Avi Schwartz wrote:
Well, I managed to get the installer to run on SuSE 6.3. What I did was to create a small script I called 'rpm' which sits in the path before /bin/rpm (I put it in /usr/local/sbin which I had to create first). What this script does is cheat the installer. When it is called with the parameters '-qi glibc' it returns to the installer the output it expects. If it is called with any other parameters is just calls /bin/rpm passing it all the arguments it was called with. If you are interested in the script you can find it here together with the run-parts scripts needed by setupWPO200. Download both files and chmod +x them. Put run-parts in /usr/bin and rpm in /usr/local/sbin (you might need to create this directory first). After you installed the two files, run the setup program as per Corel's instructions. On my machine it displayed the graphical installer and allowed me to complete the install. The next test is to see whether it actually runs...
The files can be found at:

Important, make sure to remove the fake rpm script once you finished the install.
