112 | <para>For running &krusader; (⪚ | | |||
113 | when you have installed &krusader; with a | | |||
114 | binary RPM) you need less libraries than if you compile | | |||
115 | &krusader; from source. ⪚ you | | |||
116 | only need the C-compiler &gcc; when you | | |||
117 | compile &krusader; from source (see the next | | |||
118 | question).</para> | | |||
119 | <para>Take a look at the <link linkend="compilation">&krusader; dependencies</link> paragraph of our install chapter.</para> | | |||

137 | <para>Most RPM-based distributions separate the headers | | |||
138 | from the libs. The headers are needed to compile | | |||
139 | &krusader;. Look for packages in the form | | |||
140 | foo-devel-*.rpm (⪚ | | |||
141 | <filename>kdelibs-devel-foo.i586.rpm</filename>) or | | |||
142 | foo-dev-*.deb for <trademark class="registered">Debian</trademark> based | | |||

237 | <question id="faqi_rpm-fails"> | | |||
238 | <para>I am trying to install binary foo (RPM or DEB | | |||
239 | package), but it fails. What is wrong?</para> | | |||
240 | </question> | | |||
241 | <answer> | | |||
242 | <para>Since we only prepare (and use) the source, we have | | |||
243 | no way of knowing this. Did you test the binary RPM | | |||
244 | before installing? | | |||
245 | <screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput><command>rpm</command> <option>-i --test</option> <replaceable></path/to/rpmfile> krusader-x.xx.dist.rpm</replaceable></userinput></screen> | | |||
246 | If the prompt returns without any message, then | | |||
247 | everything is OK. RPM's downloaded from our website are | | |||
248 | usually provided by &krusader; users. Visit | | |||
249 | your distro website and search for an updated RPM.</para> | | |||
250 | <para>If the RPM is not OK, try to find another package | | |||
251 | at &Linux; software archives such as | | |||
252 | <ulink url="http://freshmeat.net/projects/krusader/">freshmeat.net</ulink> or <ulink url="https://www.linux-apps.com/content/show.php?content=10214">linux-apps.com</ulink>. | | |||
253 | If you still cannot find the appropriate package for your | | |||
254 | &Linux; distribution, we recommend searching | | |||
255 | for it with <ulink url="http://rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/search.php?query=krusader&submit=Search+...">rpmfind</ulink> or | | |||
256 | <ulink url="http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/3/search/krusader">rpmpbone</ulink>.</para> | | |||
257 | <para>In general, a package for an older version of your | | |||
258 | distribution or even for another distribution might work | | |||
259 | on your computer (⪚ FC RPM's often work on | | |||
260 | Mdk and RH, and vice versa), but it is always the best | | |||
261 | that you install only RPM's that exactly match your | | |||
262 | distribution. If you cannot find a package that matches | | |||
263 | your distribution version, architecture or distribution, | | |||
264 | then use a source RPM. When you use a source RPM, the | | |||
265 | Krusader sources will be built, on your computer, | | |||
266 | guaranteeing a suitable binary RPM for your specific | | |||
267 | distribution and architecture. In addition, this method | | |||
268 | results in maximum system speed, since the resulting | | |||
269 | binary is customized for your computer. Please read the | | |||
270 | previous question, it explains how to install a source | | |||
271 | RPM. The best solution is explained in the next | | |||
