[Pythoncard-users] RPM problem with libsdl

[Al <pal...@ya...>]

Sorry, this is not quite directly relevant to PythonCard as program, but is a 
problem with trying to get it installed.  I'm on Mandrake 10.2.  

Trying to install WXPython, to use PythonCard.  Blocked by missing libsdl.    
Download and try to install, it says it already is installed.  Do rpm 
-replace, and it says file missing cannot be opened.  Consider removing and 
replacing, but this will take out a whole lot of other stuff like Amarok.    
Do rpm rebuilddb, and situation doesn't change.    Do rpm -qa --last and find 
that it is indeed there, and was installed during my recent upgrade to 10.2.  
Do find, and it comes up with file not found.  Inspect /lib in the file 
manager and it does indeed seem not to be there.  But using the Mandrake rpm 
wizard, remove, it can see it well enough to offer to remove it.

WXP on the other hand obviously can't see it well enough to install.  What 
next?

Suggestions gratefully received,

Al
