Hi everyone,
This is why we need strong dependency checking during RPM install or whatever
other packaging system used.
By the way, the Suse 82 problem certainly relies to a dependency question.
Here is an extract of the spec file. Could you "tell" what package is missing
in order to build wxWindows 2.5 cvs? 0.01 cent question.
Requires: gtk2 >= 2.2, glibc >= 2.3.2, libjpeg >= 6, libpng >= 1.2.2, pango >=
1.2.1, libstdc++ >= 3.2.2, openssl >= 0.9.6, libtiff >= 3.5.7, zlib >= 1.1.4
BuildRequires: autoconf >= 2.57, automake >= 1.7.2, gtk2-devel >= 2.2,
postgresql >= 7.3.2, openssl-devel >= 0.9.6, pkgconfig >= 0.14, libpng-devel
>= 1.2.2, gtk2-engines >= 2.2, gcc-c++ >= 7.3
Cheers, Jean-Michel
