iFolder Client in 12.2

English Applications
1

Hi, I jumped the gun and installed 12.2 RC 2, and am now looking to get the iFolder Client installed.

There are no 12.2 packages in OBS yet, so I thought I’d try with the factory.
From past experience I made sure to add mono-devel and mono-wcf.
It installs fine, but won’t run - from console I get the response below.

-Any clues as to which runtime version it might refer to? (mono in this install is 2.10.6-5.6.1 vs a happy 2.10.6-2.4.1 on a 12.1/tumbleweed)
-A web search on the glib errors wound an ifolder user with a missing ‘gnome’ package, but didn’t identify what…

Any suggestions welcome!

I wouldn’t expect a version that works with 12.2 yet. But the
dependencies for iFolder do list the versions of the Mono components
required, and Mono is extremely picky about having the correct versions

  • when it says version “1.23”, it means exactly that version and not
    “version 1.23 or newer”.

Have a look at the dependencies for the iFolder package, as that’ll tell
you what you need to have installed.

Thanks for that Jim.

It turns out the missing package I had to install was libgnomeui, which wasn’t listed as a dependency.
I found it sort-of-by-accident, -I realised iFolder was working this morning and managed to “rpm -qa --last” my way to finding what did it!

(I agree that it’s a miracle that the Mono versions behaved this time)

Thanks for your input!
