Missing Dependency

[goude]

Hello
I'm trying to install the following packages:

yum -y install tk-devel tcl-devel xorg-x11-server-sdk glibc-devel-2.10.1-2.i586

but I get depsolving problems.

Here is the output:

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: package-cleanup --problems
                        package-cleanup --dupes
                        rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

Does anyone know how I can resolve this? Any suggestions please?

Thanks a lot

Do you need a specific version of glibc-devel for any particular reason? Does the problem happen if you do:

yum -y install tk-devel tcl-devel xorg-x11-server-sdk glibc-devel

Not really.

But I need the 32-bit version of glibc-devel

No problems when I do:

yum -y install tk-devel tcl-devel xorg-x11-server-sdk glibc-devel

but it installed the 64-bit version. Can you please let me know how can I get the 32-bit version?

Thank you

You could try this: take a look what the latest version available is:

yum list available |grep glibc-devel

and install that on a yum line of its own.

There is a way to set the platform type in your command line to yum, but I forget what it is and I'm at work (on a non-Linux operating system at the moment).

The other solution is to use a graphical tool like yumex and tick the box for the i686 or i586 version of glibc-devel.

After a lot searching on the web I managed to find the 32-bit version and installed it for with no problems.

Thank you for trying to help me Roxoff and for the useful yum install tips.
