FAILED to INSTALL PRINCE in CENTOS

deb_butan
Hi,

My Linux machine details are as below :

Linux i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux

I am tried to install below rpm
prince-8.0-1.centos52.i386.rpm

command I used to install the rpm : rpm2cpio prince-8.0-1.centos52.i386.rpm | cpio -idmv
But unfortunately when I am just trying to execute the prince its failing with below error :
execute command : prince contact.html -o contact.pdf

ERROR :
/usr/local/lib/prince/bin/prince: /usr/lib/libcurl.so.4: no version information available (required by /usr/local/lib/prince/bin/prince)

Can you guys please guide me what to do here ?

Which Linux distribution are you running? What do you get when you run this:
cat /etc/redhat-release
deb_butan
cat /etc/redhat-release

result is :
CentOS release 5.5 (Final)

Does anything show up if you run "rpm -qa | grep curl"? If not, you will need to install curl.

Executed command : rpm -qa | grep curl

Hi Mike, can you please reply little faster.

To fix the "no available fonts" message you need to install some fonts, ideally the msttcorefonts package or the DejaVu fonts. I'm still not sure what is causing the libcurl error.

Hi Mike,

Thanks for your support. Finally the PRINCE is working fine for me.

For me, this worked on centos just fine:

yum install deja*

I post this as much for my future reference as well as others having problems with centos reporting:

prince: internal error: no available fonts
