Hello
I am trying to install the R RPM for Suse 10.0 on an x86_64 PC. However
I am failing a dependency for "libpng12.so.0" straight away
PC5-140:/home/rmgzshd # rpm -i R-base-2.5.0-2.1.x86_64.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
libpng12.so.0(PNG12_0)(64bit) is needed by R-base-2.5.0-2.1.x86_64
I do seem to have this file
PC5-140:/home/rmgzshd # whereis libpng12.so.0
libpng12.so: /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0 /usr/local/lib/libpng12.so
but presuming that it is not the 64bit version mentioned I went looking
for a 64 bit version but could not find it through google.
However reading the Installation manual I noted that libpng is mention
in the context of a source build. I therefore downloaded
"libpng-1.2.18"
(v-1.2.8 or later is specified in the manual) and succesfully compiled
this. This did not however help with my problem.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Stephen Henderson

Thanks for your help As you suggested I do indeed have a 64bit version called exactly the same PC5-140:/home/rmgzshd # rpm -qf /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0 libpng-32bit-1.2.8-19.5 PC5-140:/home/rmgzshd # rpm -qf /usr/lib64/libpng12.so.0 libpng-1.2.8-19.5 SO how do I tell rpm to find this and not the 32bit file? Or do I need to edit something in the rpm file?

Yes I definitely have it.
PC5-140:/home/rmgzshd/MAT-2 # whereis libpng12.so.0
libpng12.so: /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0 /usr/local/lib/libpng12.so
/usr/local/lib/libpng12.so.0
PC5-140:/home/rmgzshd/MAT-2 # rpm -qf /usr/lib64/libpng12.so.0
libpng-1.2.8-19.5
I don't understand either why 'whereis' does not identify this-- or
why it lists the file 3 times?.
I'm also puzzled why they chose to call the file exactly the same thing.
I will next try rpm --force as you suggest.
Stephen

Odd... Do you actually _have_ /usr/lib64/libpng12.so.0 (whereis didn't
seem to find it) --- as opposed to "rpm -qf" telling you which package
contains the file? If not, try (re)installing libpng, possibly with
--force.>
