You use dnf. The package names will be different (Fedora's development packages use "-devel" instead of "-dev" and they're packaged differently. > I don't do apt-get. I need an rpm command. Where is it? How can I be > sure that I have installed the dependencies that other method requires? You install what you think you need via dnf, then you try to build it. If the configure or build steps puke, you look at the messages and figure out what packages you need to install to clean that up. Based on what Ubuntu seems to need, my guess is you'd need to: sudo dnf install gcc pkg-config gcc-c++-c6x-linux-gnu gcc-c6x-linux-gnu openssl-devel expat-devel libavc1394-devel mesa-libGL-devel qwt5-qt4-devel That's JUST a guess. There's no clear relationship on the libavcodec and libgl1-mesa packages and Fedora uses qt5. > Also: must I recompile with every new release of Fedora? Fedora 26 is > coming out any day now. Must I wait? That's up to you. I doubt this will be part of the Fedora universe due to the licensing issues, you'll need to build it yourself or convince someone at Fedora or rpmfusion to maintain a package for it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Systems Engineer, AllDigital ricks@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx - - AIM/Skype: therps2 ICQ: 226437340 Yahoo: origrps2 - - - - I'm telling you that the kernel is stable not because it's a - - kernel, but because I refuse to listen to arguments like this. - - -- Linus Torvalds - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
