My server runs Centos 7, and I would like to add JRiver as a media server. I have tried to use alien to convert the Deb file to an rpm, but my skills are meager. Naturally, the Fedora script won't create an rpm that CentOS can use, as the packages aren't as current on CentOS.

I would appreciate some guidance or assistance.

Thank you.

Here is a list of the dependencies:

Code: [Select]

dpkg rpm-build libnotify librtmp lame vorbis-tools alsa-lib
libX11 libX11-common libxcb libXau libXdmcp libuuid
gtk2 gtk2-engines mesa-libGL gnutls gtk2 lame
You will probably need to install the EPEL repos and possibly hunt some of the dependencies down individually.

First, thank you for your response.

This is the output I get:

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

It appears that library is provided by the nettle package in the EPEL.

[aeshva]

Since I have the EPEL repo active, shouldn't it just pull it and install it?

[BryanC]

I'm not familiar with alien but my hunch is that it has not been tested extensively with CentOS and thus cannot resolve all of the dependencies automatically.
