What repositories do you have enabled? What are the installed versions of perl-SDL and SDL_gfx? In Fedora Extras Development I see SDL_gfx-2.0.13-7.fc6 perl-SDL-2.1.3-3.fc6 which are compatible (and SDL_gfx provides libSDL_gfx.so.13 e.g.). The broken deps report for Fedora Extras doesn't list your problem either: https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-extras-list/2007-January/msg00480.html -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
