Hi Everyone, [yes, this is about a proprietary product, but I'm just asking for some tips/pointers] Has anyone tried installing the new Adobe Reader (7.0.8) RPM from Adobe on a CentOS 4.3 x86_64 box? I just attempted an upgrade from AdobeReader_enu-7.0.1-1 (also RPM install), and I'm getting this error: error: Failed dependencies: libGLU.so.1 is needed by AdobeReader_enu-7.0.8-1.i386 It looks like Adboe wants the i386 version of that library, which is provided by xorg-x11-Mesa-libGLU.i386. However, I already have the x86_64 version installed. What's stranger is that I was able to install the previous version without any problems. Any tips/suggestions/flames appreciated.

Both the 32bit and the 64bit versions of libGLU are present on the machine and as they coexist peacefully. Just install the i386 lib and it should work. Integration of i386 apps is generally easy in CentOS, works far better than in any other distro I tried. Regards, Thomas
