I recently set up a RedHat 9 box to test on our network and yesterday
resolved a printing issue. Now today I am trying to install the rdesktop
software but running up against a wall. First, the machine was set up
using the default option for Personal Desktop. Okay, here's what I'm doing
-
Open Package Management gui from the menu.
Select Development Tools and find GCC is selected by default, press
the Update button
Packages Not Found - krb5-libs and openssl
Search around and find krb5-server in the Network servers tab (cannot
find krb5-libs anywhere). Select krb5-server and select update
Packages Not Found - krb5-libs, make, openssl, gettext, binutils
Quit
What's up with that? I thought Package Management meant it would find the
dependencies and install them as needed, but apparently it doesn't. And
where are the dependencies? Why can't can't it handle this by itself?
(I'm new to linux, but have been using FreeBSD for about 4 years now, the
FreeBSD ports system installs all dependencies on its own as needed)
Mostly - What do I do now?
Thanks,
