Eeek.  Those 100 or so dependencies are there for a reason.  You need
to be very sure you understand those reasons before you override them.

I'm not sure how that command would work.  Rpm would expect a package
name, not a file name.

As usual, Paul's got good advice.

For further reference, if you're not using NetworkManager to manage a
wireless connection to your router, you may be able to get the network
up from the console (text mode terminal, use Ctrl-Alt-F1 to get to
one).  To activate the first ethernet device, run (as root):

    /sbin/ifup eth0

Once you get things working again, use yum to manage your packages if
you want to use the command line, or use "Add/Remove Software" from
the Gnome menu to do this graphically.  Yum is a good thing and will
manage all of the dependencies for you.  If you get your internect
connection working, you could install libglade2 using this command (as
root):

    yum install libglade2

Good luck,
