virtualbox 2.1.0 for Fedora 9 x86_64

Post by zogness »

Hello all.

I want to install the binary or compile the ose edition on Fedora 9. A few weeks ago I was able to compile the previous release, but I broke that trying to compile the 2.1.0 version from the trunk of the svn tree. Here's the error I get when I try to install the rpm:

rpm -ivh VirtualBox2.1.0_41146_fedora9-1.x86_64.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:

Do you have those packages installed? And not just the development ones.
Read the Forum Posting Guide before opening a topic.

Yes.

Yeah I'm pretty sure I have all of them installed since VirtualBox (built from source) ran beautifully before I upgraded the kernel. That's why it's puzzling.

Similar story. All the prerequisite libraries are installed. However, the rpm does not install:
  • $>sudo rpm -Uvh VirtualBox-2.1.0_41146_fedora9-1.i386.rpm
    error: Failed dependencies:
    libQtCore.so.4 is needed by VirtualBox-2.1.0_41146_fedora9-1.i386

    libQtNetwork.so.4 is needed by VirtualBox-2.1.0_41146_fedora9-1.i386

    libxslt.so.1 is needed by VirtualBox-2.1.0_41146_fedora9-1.i386
Any thoughts as to how to get around this?

update to last post

Post by simonrodan »

Turns out in my case it is simple a case of RTFM.

I had downloaded the i386 version as was installing on a 64 bit host.

It now installs cleanly.

Apologies for the posting.
