I'm not sure why I could not install the RPM for this. Then, after I
added the Yum repository for Google, and still no joy, I went to the
CentOS Wiki and I read about installing the rpmforge repository, which
I have working properly. Then I searched for and found the key for
Google and installed and verified it.

My last attempt ended with the following:

  Installing: picasa                       ######################### [1/1]
error: unpacking of archive failed on file
/opt/picasa/lib/libfreetype.so;4730da7e: cpio: symlink

Installed: picasa.i386 0:2.2.2820-5
Complete!
[root@dell2400 ~]#

So, it looks like  there is a problem unpacking that file. I think
SELinux is set to permissive on my box, so that should not be causing
this problem. Ideas? If someone here doesn't have a solution, I will
post in a google group. TIA! Lanny
