Missing Dependency: libexif.so.9

Post by Chaki » 2008/01/03 01:13:32

Trying to install mono on CentOS 5, but during the install i keep getting

Resolving Dependencies
--> Populating transaction set with selected packages. Please wait.
---> Package mono-core.i586 0:1.2.6-4.novell set to be updated
--> Running transaction check
--> Processing Dependency: libgdiplus for package: mono-core
--> Restarting Dependency Resolution with new changes.
--> Populating transaction set with selected packages. Please wait.

--> Running transaction check
--> Processing Dependency: libexif.so.9 for package: libgdiplus
--> Finished Dependency Resolution
Error: Missing Dependency: libexif.so.9 is needed by package libgdiplus


Is there some easy fix for this or is there some package im missing that i can't find out of?

Been trying to google this and search diffrent places for hours now with no luck so far.

Any suggestions would be more than welcome :)

Are you trying to get it from suse ??? mono is available from CentOS extras repository.

Its trying to do it over yum, and its using the repo file provided from there under centos distro.

Gonna do some checking again and see what it will do.

Just make sure that the extras repository is enabled and do a 'yum install mono-core'. I get:

Thanks for the help here, so far i got it going at least with version 1.2.4
yum update however wont update it to 1.2.6 but that is currently just a minor little hitch
i will eventually get around and working i hope.

Thanks for the help so far its been great and fast.

Just make sure the extras repo is enabled. Or use:

yum --enablerepo=extras

Hi all,

An hour ago I had the same problem, but I fixed it enabling the 'centosplus' repo.
# vi /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo => then enabled=1 under [centosplus]
The 'extra' repo is enabled by default and does not fix the problem.

Regards,
Joost.

Addition to my previous post: add includepkgs=libgdiplus under [centosplus] to make sure you only use the libgdiplus package from the centosplus repo.

Weird though, I just see in toracats post that his libgdiplus package comes from the extras repo.

This is the output I get from yum:
