Hi there,

Ok so your going to run into this alot. The program your installing needs dependencies in order to install and the install program is telling what ones it needs. Pretty much just type the name of the dependence into Google eg: "libICE.so.6" find the file (normally will be the first hit) and install. You'll have to do this for each of those files before installing the program.

Hope this helps.

What distro are you using? If it has a package manager available all of those files should be available, they are all fairly standard. Where possible try to use a package manager like Yum or apt-get
