Hi,

When installing dvdbackup as root:
rpm -i dvdbackup-0.30-0.pm.0.i586.rpm
I get this error message;

warning: dvdbackup-0.30-0.pm.0.i586.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key
ID 9a795806
error: Failed dependencies:
libdvdread.so.3 is needed by dvdbackup-0.30-0.pm.0.i586

libdvdread.so.3 is in directories /usr/lib and in usr/lib64.

Where does dvdbackup want libdvdread.so.3?

Thanks beforehand and best regards.

It looks to me that you are installing the wrong dvdbackup. You are trying to install a 32-bit dvdbackup, with a 64-bit libdvdread. Should you not try to find a 64-bit dvdbackup?

I am not a 64-bit user, so this is speculation on my part.

Hi there and thanks,

>>>32-bit dvdbackup, with a 64-bit libdvdread.

That’s what I thought, too. Will try to find one.
Any idea where?

However, I have simply installed dvdbackup with rpm’s --nodeps option and now it seems to work. I haven’t checked the copy of the DVD I ripped, yet.

Will try to get a 64-bit version, nonetheless.

Regards.

64-bit libdvdread from here:
Index of /distribution/11.0/repo/oss/suse/x86_64

64-bit dvdbackup from here:
Index of /suse/11.0/x86_64

I recommend you take some time and familiarize yourself with the main Packman site:
PackMan :: home
Note on the Packman site, the tab for search, has an excellent internal search engine.

I also recommend you familiarize yourself with the webpin search engine:
Webpin - openSUSE search engine
I personally do not use the webpin one-click install, but I do use (on an adhoc short term repos addition/removal basis) the repositories that it lists with various applications that I have located by searching.
