hi, system : gnome 64 bits Description of problem: After install picasa for share my photos, the program can't connect openssl connection Message : Warning : Many online features of Picasa will not work. Until you install a 32-bit version of OpenSSL. If you skip this step, you can perform it later by running : /opt/google/picasa/3.0/bin/repackage32.sh openssl*For additional assistance, please visit: http://groups.google.com/group/Google-Labs-Picasa-for-Linux Would you like install 32-bits OpenSSL now ? If i click Yes : Don't know how to install openssl on Mageia. after program launch but i can't send picture Steps to Reproduce: 1.download rpm : http://picasa.google.com/linux/download.html#picasa30 2. install rpm 3. launch picasa thank you, Arnaud
As a temporary solution try ... - uninstall picassa - urpmi openssl - rm -f /etc/mandrake-release - urpmi ./picassa... - cd /etc - ln -s mageia-release mandrake-release Note that I only have a 32 bit system, so I'm not sure if you have enable the 32 bit repository first, or specifically select the 32 bit version of openssl. In /opt/google/picasa/3.0/bin/common.sh it's using the DISTRIB_ID from the file /etc/lsb-release to determine which distribution is being used. Not much mageia can do about that. The script should be trying to figure out if it's a .deb or .rpm based release, rather then looking at the distribution id, in my opinion, but that's up to google. In the rpm package install/uninstall scriplets, it's checking for the existence of /etc/mandrake-release to determine if it's a Mandriva release, and then parsing the contents to see what year the release is from. Since /etc/magiea-release doesn't have a year (or the string "Mandriva Linux release"), it's assuming a pre 2007 version of Mandriva, which may mess up the menu/icon installation. Temporarily removing the symlink should allow the rpm package to install properly. My question is whether or not the symlinks /etc/mandrake-release and /etc/mandriva-release should be included? Would removing them break anything?

Picasa isn't in the official Mageia repos, we have no control on how it's packaged, so this report in INVALID. You can of course open a topic at https://forums.mageia.org FWIW, the 32bit openssl lib package is libopenssl-1.0.0, which is in the Core 32bit Release repository (which is set up by default when adding the official repos).
