[PlanetCCRMA] Error Installing The 'Core' CD Image under FedoraCore-1

Hello!!!

Thnaks for your input it worked without problems. The fact is that I just
downloaded the first Image CD trying to install and fine-tune all the
"core" parts (kernel, alsa, etc) and then install the aplications. Maybe
I just must play more and organize less! ;)

But in the process of exploring the applications there were troubles
installing two packages:

1- SWAMI
   =====

"
[root@localhost kasti]# apt-get install swami libswami libswami-devel
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
 
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  swami: Obsoletes: libswami (< 0.9.2) but 0.9.1a-3.rhfc1.ccrma is to be
  installed
         Obsoletes: libswami-devel (< 0.9.2) but 0.9.1a-3.rhfc1.ccrma is
         to be installed
E: Broken packages
"


2- OPENMUSIC
   =========

"
[root@localhost kasti]# apt-get install omlinux
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
E: Couldn't find package omlinux
"

Again I must say ĦĦĦThank you!!! for this great effort.

Means you don't have alsa installed (I thought there may be a conflict
with a previously installed version).

Ok, this is it. You should have at least two cdroms, one for the Core
(kernel and alsa) and another for the applications. You should feed both
to "apt-cdrom add" before starting the install. Alsa-tools needs fltk,
which is on the other cdrom. If you installed Fedora from the
"planetized" Fedora Core cdroms then you should feed those to "apt-cdrom
add" as well before starting, otherwise you will also get missing
dependencies unless you have done a full install of Fedora Core
(installed all packages).
