Description Tim Püschel 2005-03-08 07:23:40 EST

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050302 Firefox/1.0.1 Fedora/1.0.1-1.3.2

Description of problem:
When I want to install amarok rpm says it depends on xorg-x11-devel

rpm -Uvh amarok-*
Fehler: Failed dependencies:
        xorg-x11-devel is needed by amarok-1.2.1-1.i386

After installing it with the --nodeps option it works without problems.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
amarok-1.2.1-1.i386

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. rpm -Uvh amarok-1.2.1-1.i386.rpm
  

Expected Results:  It shouldn't be necessary to install xorg-x11-devel and with that a whole bunch of other devel stuff just to install an audio player.

Additional info:

Comment 1 Aurelien Bompard 2005-03-08 07:33:32 EST

Please use "yum install amarok" to install it. It will resolve the dependency
for you and install the required packages with amarok.

Form a technical POV, this dependency is required for OpenGL visualisations, so
amarok can live without it if you don't need them

Comment 2 Michael Schwendt 2005-03-08 11:00:33 EST

Is that work-around this required?

FC3 qt package changelog says:

* Thu Aug 19 2004 Than Ngo <than@redhat.com> 1:3.3.3-3

- add patch to fix dlopen issue (#126422)
- add image handling fix

Comment 3 Michael Schwendt 2005-03-08 11:01:40 EST

s/this/still/ ;)

Comment 4 Tim Püschel 2005-03-11 18:39:26 EST

The OpenGL Spectrum analyzer, Blur scope and Spectrum analyzer seem to work
without problems without having xorg-x11-devel-installed.

Comment 5 Aurelien Bompard 2005-03-11 18:50:37 EST

Yeah, it looks good here too. The hardcoded dependancy will be removed for the
next version, thanks.
