Description of problem: installed blender with "yum install blender" and when typing "blender" on the command line, I get: /usr/bin/blender.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libalut.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory This prevented blender from starting at all. Manually installing package "freealut" fixed the issue, but it seems that the blender package should depend on freealut if it is needed to run. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): f7, fresh install How reproducible: I just have one fedora machine to try it on and it is fixed now, but got the same result on this machine every time I tried it. Steps to Reproduce: 1. "yum install blender" (as root...) 2. "blender" 3. Actual results: /usr/bin/blender.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libalut.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Expected results: blender should start Additional info: This is a pretty small bug, but could be a show stopper for the less technically inclined.

It will be nice, if you can do the following: 1.) Download the RPM Package from the repository 2.) type in 'rpm -qRp blender-2.4.4-4.fc7....' I have attached the output from my machine on comment #1 On my requirement list I can found a requirement to libalut.so.0

Comment on attachment 158543 [details] Output of requested command Oddly, mine also lists that libalut.so.0
I have assume, that this may be caused by the fact, that the earlier version of blender was available for i386 only. But my tests shows, that the update path woring properly. So I have no idea, why this may be happen. I assume, that was a yum/rpm/repodata issue, which maybe fixed now. So I want to close this bug now.
