Resolving deps for metacity updates

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 






I'm trying to install the 'metacity-2.4.55-6' or 'metacity-2.5.3-3' rpms on
Red Hat 8.0 but they both have several dependancies:

          error: Failed dependencies:
          libXrandr.so.2 is needed by metacity-2.4.55-6
          libstartup-notification-1.so.0 is needed by metacity-2.4.55-6
          redhat-artwork >= 0.62 is needed by metacity-2.4.55-6

Of coarse, when I try to install those packages, they in turn have
dependencies and so on... could anyone please tell me what i'm doing wrong
or if there is a different approach I should be taking?

Any help would be greatly apprectaited.

Thanks,


Aaron
