Get Amaya from http://www.w3.org/Amaya/User/BinDist.html
open a terminal
su root type root password when prompted
in Directory where rpm is installled type
rpm -i --nodeps amaya_wx-11.3.1-0.i386.rpm
Normal Install does not work because amaya is looking for older copies of Libcrypt and Libssl which are deprecated.
In Order for Amaya to load it need to find the new version of the libraries so we symlink to them here.
(((Thanks to the commenter below I noticed I forgot to tell you to switch to /usr/lib or /lib to as root to soft link the libraries )))
ln -s libssl.so.1.0.0 libssl.so.7
ln -s libcrypto.so.1.0.0 libcrypto.so.7
And Voilà the finished product
The Pink is my desktop theme, On your computer it will look like any other application, unless of course your desktop is themed pink.
Thanks Janet.
ReplyDeleteI just installed fedora on my netbook.
I use amaya for simple web site maintenance. (actually, 11.3 is actually quite usefull)
I found libcrypto.so.1.0.0c in the /lib directory
So I made the following change:
# ln -s /lib/libcrypto.so.1.0.0c libcrypto.so.7
Appears to work!
