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
