From: Ari Järmälä on 11 Sep 2006 17:17 Trying to update Firefox with MandrivaUpdate and it wants to remove avidemux-2.1.0-0.1.20060plf.i586. But I don't want my avidemux to be removed.

Use the command line ... # urpmi mozilla-firefox --allow-nodeps --allow-force I find mozilla products often have dependencies on specific versions of other packages, such a yelp, but work fine with newer versions, when you override the dependency checks.

Not good. After forcing firefox: $ avidemux2 Ice\ age.avi avidemux2: error while loading shared libraries: libmozjs.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Eh? Rgs, Ari J?rm?l?

You may need to symlink /usr/lib/libmozjs.so to the firefox version, or add an entry to /etc/ld.so.conf.d, to include the firefox directory in the list processed by ldconfig.

If you start to force installations with urpmi, you'll sooner or later run into problems. So if you want to be on the safe side, simply don't use the options mentioned in the previous post. It's (according to my experience) much better to rebuilt the package yourself, preferably from a srpm. -- Jon Solberg (remove "nospam" from email address). |
