[SOLVED]Application Dependencies Issues

Postby chirag87 » May 4th, '16, 18:04

Hi,

I have been trying to install Tixati- a bittorrent client that I also use in windows. So I went to their website and downloaded the RPM. Then when I try to set it up there was the following error

[root@localhost Downloads]# rpm -ivh tixati-2.38-1.x86_64.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
libdbus-1.so.3(LIBDBUS_1_3)(64bit) is needed by tixati-2.38-1.x86_64
I have tried installing lib64dbus1_3-1.8.20-1.mga5.x86_64 but that still does not seem to do the trick.

Any ideas

Nothing wrong, you're simply using the wrong tool - rpm doesn't do automatic dependency resolution, better use urpmi for that - it will fetch the packages from Mageia repos, as long as that package you're installing is loosely compatible ...

Please first read https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Installing_a ... rrectly.3F
and maybe https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Install_medi ... _beginners to get started with software management in Mageia.

Also check our software management MAQeia for more information on software and package management.

As per your advice I have tried urpmi which resulted in
Code: Select all
[root@localhost Downloads]# urpmi tixati-2.38-1.x86_64.rpm
A requested package cannot be installed:
tixati-2.38-1.x86_64 (due to unsatisfied libdbus-1.so.3(LIBDBUS_1_3)(64bit))
Continue installation anyway? (Y/n) y
While some packages may have been installed, there were failures.
A requested package cannot be installed:
tixati-2.38-1.x86_64 (due to unsatisfied libdbus-1.so.3(LIBDBUS_1_3)(64bit))
Continue installation anyway?


At this point it automatically exits to prompt without waiting for reply.
Any further suggestions

You need to use
Code: Select all
urpmi --allow-force --allow-nodeps
if some dependencies of that package are called different from what they are at Mageia.

The bottom line is that the application installed and works. So thanks for your time and effort.
