Niklas Modin Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Hi, I'm trying to install the 1.7.5 rpm using yum but there seems to be a missing dependency. $: sudo yum -y install synergy-v1.7.5-stable-fa85a24-Linux-x86.rpm $: Error: Package: synergy-1.7.5.x86_64 Requires libdns_sd.so.1() (64bit) I thought yum would automatically install any missing dependencies ? Any pointers ? Cheers, Niklas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niklas Modin Posted December 11, 2015 Author Share Posted December 11, 2015 Did some trial and error but still no success: 1. installed the avahi package to get the missing libs. $: yum install avahi $:Package avahi-0.6.31-15.el7.x86_64 is already installed and latest version 2. Checking for the libdns library $: ldconfig -p | grep libdns $: libdns.so.100 => .... $: libdns-export.so.100 => ... Still get the dependency error for libdns_sd.so.1 (64bit) which I guess makes sens as the above once are ... slightly different. Also tried the 32 bit version with no luck. Linux isn't really my back yard so any pointers on what could be wrong would be appreciated. Cheers, Niklas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Miles Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Any updates on this issue? I'm having the same problem on RHEL 7. While not the most popular distro, it is a fairly standard distro and you would think a synergy install would work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I'm back on RHEL 7 (OL7) and I'm back with the same issues. Did you ever find a solution for this ? Cheers, Niklas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan1491393327 Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 OL7 has super dated repos for stability. I was in dependency hell ceaselessly, because it just didn't support any new packages. You're not going to be able to run the latest and greatests of anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian S. Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Niklas and David, I saw this comment in a Google Groups post: "Very of the cuff guess, trying installing avahi-compat-libdns_sd Just avahi won't cut it is my guess." What happens if you try this? I hope the issue gets resolved, although I don't have a any OL7 RHEL to try out. - Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niklas Modin Posted February 8, 2016 Author Share Posted February 8, 2016 Hi all, I fixed it by enabling [ol7_optional_latest] in /etc/yum.repos.d/public-yum-ol7.repo. Perhaps I'm now living a little less stable, but YOLO ! Thanks for the suggestions and hope this answers helps someone else.

Brian S. Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Thanks very much Niklas! I created an issue on GitHub from this info, which seems very useful for OL7 users. https://github.com/symless/synergy/issues/5210 - Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
