dependencies fail on Fedora 12

[Johan Bower]

I cannot install VB on Fedora 12. It gives the following dependency errors: libQtCore.so.4 is needed by VirtualBox-3.0.12_54655_fedora12-1.i686

libQtGui.so.4 is needed by VirtualBox-3.0.12_54655_fedora12-1.i686 libQtNetwork.so.4 is needed by VirtualBox-3.0.12_54655_fedora12-1.i686 libSDL-1.2.so.0 is needed by VirtualBox-3.0.12_54655_fedora12-1.i686 libXcursor.so.1 is needed by VirtualBox-3.0.12_54655_fedora12-1.i686 libXmu.so.6 is needed by VirtualBox-3.0.12_54655_fedora12-1.i686 libXt.so.6 is needed by VirtualBox-3.0.12_54655_fedora12-1.i686 libcurl.so.4 is needed by VirtualBox-3.0.12_54655_fedora12-1.i686 libpython2.6.so.1.0 is needed by VirtualBox-3.0.12_54655_fedora12-1.i686 libxslt.so.1 is needed by VirtualBox-3.0.12_54655_fedora12-1.i686 libxslt.so.1(LIBXML2_1.0.11) is needed by VirtualBox-3.0.12_54655_fedora12-1.i686 libxslt.so.1(LIBXML2_1.0.24) is needed by VirtualBox-3.0.12_54655_fedora12-1.i686

All the mentioned libraries/files are present if I do a RPM -ql of the package that provides the required dependency.

What is your host architecture?

Almost the same problem here with my Pentium Duo 2.8 Ghz IBM Thinkpad:

rpm -ivh VirtualBox-3.0.12_54655_fedora12-1.i686.rpm aviso: VirtualBox-3.0.12_54655_fedora12-1.i686.rpm: Cabeçalho V4 assinatura DSA: NOKEY, ID da chave 6dfbcbae erro: Dependências não satisfeitas:

I'm sorry, but please could you answer my question?

[Paulo]

Please, keep in mind that you're talking to dummy guys around the world (Brazil, in my case). So, explain what exactly do you mean with "What is your host architecture?" :-)

[Frank Mehnert]

Please open a terminal window (for example konsole on KDE or gnome-terminal on GNOME) and enter the command

uname -a

Please post the output here.

[Frank Mehnert]

uniredes_br, are you sure you installed the packages which are shown in the warning? That is, what is the output of rpm -q qt?

bowerj, you still didn't answer my question. Could you provide the output of uname -a of the host where you tried to install the .rpm package?

I just double checked, the F12 package installs fine here on an up-to-date F12 installation.

[Paulo]

Frank, it's a shame ! [rpm -q qt] says that the package ins not installed. But how to find it ?

[Paulo]

Hum...I think I can find it here [ ​http://www.baixaki.com.br/download/qt.htm ] and live you alone :-) I'll try and let you know. Please tell me if there is a better (preferable) place to find it.

[Frank Mehnert]

The correct way to install a missing package on Fedora12 is

yum install qt

[Frank Mehnert]

I will close this bug as the original reporter doesn't respond and uniredes obviously forgot to install the proper packages.
