| I have just installed mandrake 9 and all is well, however, when I try to
install amsn (MSN for linux) I get the following error.
error: failed dependencies:
tcl is needed by amsn-0.60-1
tk is needed by amsn-0.60-1
/usr/bin/wish is needed by amsn-0.60-1
RESULT=1
I gather that these are some kind of librarys, can anyone point me in the
right direction
Regards
Jason

Yeah they are dependence programs that work to render, and run the MSN
client. To install them open up 'rpmdrake' click on the install new
software section and search for
--tcl
--tk
--wish
Once you have them selected click the install button and walk away for a
while, when you come back try running amsn again.
