Where did you get this from? This RPM is extremely old. Try a current one (1.0.5), or, if you can't find one, try the source code. > RPM says: > error. failed dependencies: > libgimp-1.1.so.25 is needed by sane-1.0.3-2 > I have gimp-1.2.1-5 and gimp devel 1.2.1-5 installed both of which > contain libgimp-1.2.so.0.0.1 > What am I doing wrong? Probably you are using an old SANE RPM with a newer system. > Do I need the earlier version of libgimp? If you can't get a newer version of SANE from your distributor, you can try to make RPMs from the latest source code of SANE and the latest source RPMs from your distribution. Bye, Henning
