Mageia forum

I need to install two specific packages to get my digital certificate to work with brazilian courts. I'm a lawyer, I've been using Linux for a very long time, but it's been quite a long time I've been away from Mageia (actually it was Mandriva last time I've used it - and Conectiva before that!).

I need to install my digital certificate reader. Usually I do with a package I download from here https://wwws.prodemge.gov.br/instaladores-token-cartao-mac-os-e-linux. I have it working under Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora and OpenSuse.

However, trying to install the RPM for Mageia 6.1 results in a series of unsolved dependencies. This is what I've done:

Code: Select all

[root@localhost christian]# urpmi /media/files/Downloads/CentOS/SafeSignIC3.0.112-x86_64-centos7-tu-admin.rpm
A requested package cannot be installed:
SafeSign_Identity_Client-3.0.112-10.x86_64 (due to unsatisfied libpng15.so.15(PNG15_0)(64bit))

[root@localhost christian]# dnf install /media/files/Downloads/CentOS/SafeSignIC3.0.112-x86_64-centos7-tu-admin.rpm

Error:
 Problem: conflicting requests
  - nothing provides libcrypto.so.10()(64bit) needed by SafeSign_Identity_Client-3.0.112-10.x86_64


I've tried to locate similar names for those packages and to ignore the dependencies, but nothing was installed. I can try to download the dependencies from other sources, but that's something I'd like to avoid.

After that I would install the certificates chain (from https://www.iti.gov.br/navegadores/mozilla-firefox, configure the card reader under crypto devices in Firefox's security menu and then the Court's firefox plugin. The problem is that the driver for the card reader (the first RPM mentioned) is not installed and I can't use it...

Can someone help here?

You can try to install that package with

Code: Select all

urpmi --allow-nodeps

Thank you for answering. I could force install the package, but nothing changes. The smartcard reader would still not work. I've extracted the "driver" (it's a .so file - libaetpkss.so) from the package, copied it to usr/lib and:

Code: Select all

# ldconfig -n -v /usr/lib

I've also found matching packages for the ones I've used in Ubuntu (at least the closest I could find in the official Mageia repo). Now I do have PCSCD working and with

Code: Select all

# service pcscd start

I can get the smartcard to read my digital certificate.

However, I still can't load the Security Module within Firefox, I get an error message "Unable to add module" (preferences > privacy & security > security devices > load > libaetpkss.so from usr/lib - ). Therefore, the Firefox plugin I need from the Court won't recognize the smartcard.

Could it be that you have a 64 bit installation, and that this driver is a 32bit module? Check e.g. some similar threads as https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/752709

No, I don't think that's it... it's the same driver file I'm using with Ubuntu and Fedora, both 64bit. Thank you for pointing me in the direction of Mozilla support. Sadly, those posts are a few years long (2011) and were written toward Windows users. I'll try to install Chrome/Chromium and see how it goes.

No luck with Chromium too. I've decided to try to reinstall all the packages using the rpm command instead of urpmi. Had to setup sudo for that (I was getting error messages installing the RPM file with the rpm command). Still, can't get it to work. Firefox won't load the module an Chromium does not detect it either...
