Thread: SuSE 9.0 ... Works!
I noticed that some people were having problems with PgAdmin3 on SuSE. I couldn't get it ti install (rpm or source). So I just decided to try some other RPM's. I have to admit it was an act of desperation, but the friggin Mandrake 9.1 install worked. I almost fell off my chair. Anyway I first installed the wxwindow stuff: wxGTK2ud-2.5-20030831.i386.rpm wxGTK2ud-devel-2.5-20030831.i386.rpm wxGTK2ud-stc-2.5-20030831.i386.rpm wxGTK2ud-xrc-2.5-20030831.i386.rpm Then I installed: pgadmin3-1.0.2-1.i586.rpm And it actually worked. For once, my complete laziness paid off. Well, there you have it folks. I will likely unsubscribe from this list in a day or two. Just wanted to help out some fellow SuSErs out there. J
Hi Jason, thanks for your feedback, I'm fine you found a solution to get it working (lazyness or not lazyness... ;p). May be Jean-Michel will be able to produce a native SUSE 9.0 rpm later (why not a vserver for this?). Just a word to save you some disk space, you should be allowed to uninstall all the wx stuff. Rpms and other packages are linked statically to these wx packages and they are only needed if you try to build pgAdmin3 by yourself.

For pgAdmin installation, you only need to install a single pgadmin3 RPM package. To uninstall wxGTK2ud: rpm -e wxGTK2ud wxGTK2ud-devel wxGTK2ud-stc wxGTK2ud-xrc Then, can you try uninstalling Mandrake package and reinstalling the Suse package with: rpm -Uvh pgadmin3*. This will help understand the reasons of the problem. Cheers, Jean-Michel
Dear Jean-Michel, I have done as you asked. The problem with the SuSE packages is the libcrypto stuff. The SuSE package you have requires libcrypto.so.0.9.6 and libssl.so.0.9.6. I have a later versions of these packages installed. Then when I tried to build from source for SuSE I couldn't get the psql directory setting correct for the Postgresql isntall. It ketp checking it and then saying that it wasn't a valid postgres directory. Installing the Mandrake 9.1 rpm works fine (without the wx packages). Not sure what it does to link the ssl and cryto files...
