Beginner's question on dependencies (scribus)

[tinca]

I' m a new user of Fedora 2 and I tried downloaded scribus-1.2.1-1.i386.rpm and tried to install it, but I got a message
of this type:
warning: scribus-1.2.1-1.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 3ff87d98
error: Failed dependencies:
liblcms.so.1 is needed by scribus-1.2.1-1
libpython2.3.so.1.0 is needed by scribus-1.2.1-1
libstdc++.so.6 is needed by scribus-1.2.1-1
libstdc++.so.6(CXXABI_1.3) is needed by scribus-1.2.1-1
libstdc++.so.6(GLIBCXX_3.4) is needed by scribus-1.2.1-1
tkinter is needed by scribus-1.2.1-1
What do I have to do now to add these missing part (libraries?) ?
Is this a problem I'll often have installing new software?
I also tried using Synaptic, but unfortunatly I haven't found scribus or some other programms I was looking for with Synaptic.
Thanks for any kind of suggestion,
Tinca

Well you can try using YUM. Type into a shell yum # install scribus; or you can goto http://rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/ and type the names of the dependencies manually in to get them and download them as rpms.... the first is easy but the second will do the trick as well... just more clicking and installing.

tinca, I use Scribus 1.0.1 on FC1 and am in the process of setting up 1.2.1 on FC3. In both cases I installed the OS from disk as I cannot download. The files and libs needed for Scribus were on the install disk but did not install automatically. I had to select 'custom install' and then select the publishing options. (all of them). 1.2.1 will not install on FC1 without more work than I am cabable of. Not a command line master....I use Gimp and Scribus for work. You know the sweat a lot get paid a little stuff! Scribus will install perfectly on FC3 providing the options are selected as describled. Quit possibly this information is of little use to you but I thought I would pass it along anyhow. Hang in there with Scribus! Just might be the best free app in the world.

It looks like you are trying to install a version of scribus that was compiled for FC3. Installing this version, with it's dependencies, will take a lot of work. You can get a copy of scribus that was compiled for FC2 at the following web site:
