TRying to install WMQ V8 on yakkety (Ubuntu 16.10) and am using the rpms (have foiund alien screws them up if converting to deb, least for me) have got it all sorted except explorer which errors on

Quote:
rpm: RPM should not be used directly install RPM packages, use Alien instead!
rpm: However assuming you know what you are doing...
error: Failed dependencies:
gtk2 >= 2.2.4-0 is needed by MQSeriesExplorer-8.0.0-0.x86_64



but i have gtk installed apparently in both 64bit and 32bit, so not sure where / what it is looking for

does yakkety support yum? That might be easier than using alien or rpm.

Also, is Explorer supported on Ubuntu? I forget...

Well I had it running fine on previous version of Ubuntu 14.x I think when the only GTK was 2 I think and am aware Ubuntu does seem to swap and change components - I dont rem it being tricky last time - dont know if debian based system will allow yum to be used always thought that was Red Hat systems. I mean it all works via command line just nice to have had the GUI. If there is any info the lab boys need to have a go at fixing or determining why will be happy to oblige

I'm using trusty (14.04.5) and I can apt-get install yum

Either apt-get or yum should let you install rpms without running rpm, and do a better job.

OK will try yum although I assumed it would still require the dependency - any port in a storm. thanks

looks like your original install was gtk2.0-0.
You did install the 3 version but only for 64 bits. You still need to install it for the 32 bit version. I believe this is what that message is really telling you.

Have fun

This is the kind of thing that I would hope that yum or even just apt-get would solve automatically... (except apt-get doesn't accept a set of rpms, afaik).

This is the very reason why I use an RPM based Distro. Something like CentOS is stable and has a 10 year support life. Ubuntu even with the LTS if much shorter.

Every time you reinvent the wheel the more square it gets (anon). If in doubt think and investigate before you ask silly questions.

It's not really about whether the distro is rpm based or not.

It's about what tool one uses to install RPMs.

granted, rpm -<something something something> will resolve dependencies...

but yum is just a lot easier...
