[Visualpython-users] VPython RPM wants an older libgtkgl than mine.

[Kevin C. <kj...@gr...>]

Hi,

I've been using Python (1.5.2) and wxPython (2.3.1-1) for a little over
a year now, and recently heard about VPython.

I just downloaded the VPython RPM and learned that it depends on
libgtkgl.so.4.  Mine's libgtkgl.so.5 (provided by gtkglarea-1.2.2-5).
Should I just tell it to ignore the dependencies?  Or will it be
compiled soon with the newer library?

I see that the VPython RPM was converted from a Debian package.  So I
guess there's no native source RPM to compile from...  Is there a source
deb?  (I don't work with the debs much, but am willing to give it a go.)

Thanks.
