Dependency check failed...

[hit123]

I've got a problem! I can't install Scalix on Fedora 5 Core. I only got this message:

Dependency check warning -- The following packages will be installed next to resolve conflicts: libical
Dependency check failed -- Please resolve the following package conflicts and re-run the system checks:
/usr/lib/sasl2/libcrammd5.so is needed by scalix-server-11.0.2.17-1.fc5.i386
/usr/lib/sasl2/libdigestmd5.so is needed by scalix-server-11.0.2.17-1.fc5.i386

How can I solve this problem
(I am a Linux newbie )

I'm not really used to Fedora, but I think it should be something like this:

yum whatprovides libcrammd5.so
and
yum whatprovides libdigestmd5.so

This should give you the name of packages needed for the missing dependencies. Install those packages with yum install packagename

I'm having the exact same problem, missing the following files:

libcrammd5.so
libdigestmd5.so
libcrypto.so.4

I used the yum whatprovides x.so and yum install x.so, which resolved 3 other missing files, but nothing gives trying to obtain the files above.

Any luck with this?

try installing OpenSSH. I think if you do, it might clear up those dependencies.

Hi,

These are the packages you will need:

elinks
httpd
mod_ssl
postgresql
postgresql-libs
postgresql-server
sendmail-cf
compat-libstdc++-296

You also need to use the I386 versions of the following packages:

cyrus-sasl-md5
cyrus-sasl-plain
openldap
ncurses
libstdc++
libxml2

I normally do minimum install of RHEL, so not sure about Fedora, but hopefully this will put you on the right track. If you have X86_64 packages loaded, you need to install the i386 versions I specified - using up2date you can use the command:

Up2date –i –arch=i386 cyrus-sasl-md5 cyrus-sasl-plain openldap ncurses libstdc++ libxml2

Hope this helps.
Andrew.

Hi there,

I have problems with the dependencies under OpenSuSE 11.0 64bit.

I solved nearly evenrything but two dependencies still remain:

Performing system check...

* Environment check... OK
* Filesystem check... OK
* Network check... OK
* Dependency check... ERROR
* Running services check... OK
* Community license check... OK

System check report:

Environment check passed.
Filesystem check passed.
Network check passed.
Dependency check failed -- The cyrus-sasl-digestmd5-32bit package is needed by the Scalix Server.
Dependency check failed -- The cyrus-sasl-crammd5-32bit package is needed by the Scalix Server.
Running services check passed.
Community license check passed.

I installed these packages, but they probably just need a symbolic link to work, I don't know.

In /usr/lib/sasl2 there is a file named libdigestmd5.so.2.0.22 and some symbolic links to it:
libdigestmd5.so.0
libdigestmd5.so.2
libdigestmd5.so

In /usr/lib/sasl2 there is a file named libcrammd5.so.2.0.22 and some symbolic links to it:
libcrammd5.so.0
libcrammd5.so.2
libcrammd5.so

I tried the 64bit-ones, too, but with a lot more errors.
I tried the files coming with the distribution and the "factory"-ones, which seem to work best.
But the installation still hangs.

Maybe the solution is quite simple - but does anyone has an idea?
