hi..

is there a urpmf equivalent in xandors..the idea is to be able to find out what package contains a needed dependency one might need as they are compiling something..

ie:

I compile app X and it says during compile that I need say libxml.h

in mandrake its: urpmf libxml.h..in suse its pin libxml.h..in debian you can find out but you must goto online to do so..so im just wondering if xandros has anyway of doing this offline like the other distros I mentioned..

cheers

Hi neighborlee

There are a few tools for C programmers . `gcc -M' is one.
`makedepend' from X11 is another. `scripts/mkdep.c' from the
Linux kernel is a third. Some development suites have tools to help with this situation.

I realized when I read you were looking for a method to track down *.h files which are C headers I thought ahh.. programming.

But you may have been referring to apt-get installs or Xandros Networks and left with dependency issues.
So, read this How To
