Mageia forum

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.

While the output showed

Code: Select all

urpmi --allow-force --allow-nodeps tixati-2.38-1.x86_64.rpm
WARNING: --allow-force option is in use. Some strange problems may happen

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