From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.7) Gecko/20011226 Description of problem: RPM complains about a failed dependency when attempting to install the current package for Gnumeric in Raw Hide. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Install or update other packages as necessary 2.Download gnumeric-1.0.1-1.*.rpm 3.Install or update gnumeric-1.0.1-1.*.rpm Actual Results: RPM returns this error msg: error: failed dependencies: libgal.so.18 is needed by gnumeric-1.0.1-1 Expected Results: The package should have installed, either with a dependency on libgal.so.19 (which does exist in Raw Hide) or with the libgal18 package added to the Raw Hide distro. Additional info: You may need to upgrade other packages to get to the point of reproducing this problem exactly.
This should get fixed as things are auto-rebuilt in Rawhide, I'm going to close the bug just because there are dozens of such glitches at the moment and tracking them separately isn't very useful yet. rpm --rebuild against the "gal" package and gnumeric should work, assuming it rebuilds, which it may well not. ;-) Rawhide isn't in a very friendly state right now. ;-)
