Hi,
I am trying to install via yum group install, open office. I am having a dependancy problem. I get:
/nTransaction Check Error: package libIDL-0.8.4-1.centos4 (which is newer than libIDL-0.8.4-1) is already installed
yum list gives:
Installed Packages libIDL.x86_64 0.8.4-1.centos4 installed Available Packages libIDL.i386 0.8.4-1 base
It looks like OO is looking for the 32 bit verson of the library whereas the 64 bit verson is installed.
How do I fix this? I am running the x86_64 arch.
Thanks in advance
Rob
Sad person that I am replying to my own posting.
I appear to have sort of fixed this by installing the 32bit library by using the rpm --oldpackage option. Yum now lists both:
Installed Packages libIDL.i386 0.8.4-1 installed libIDL.x86_64 0.8.4-1.centos4 installed
My only worry is what will happen if they are updated.
