I tried to install the rpm of nevernote (nixnote) and I get a strange error:

Code:

[~ Downloads]$ yum install nixnote-1.4-2.i386.rpm
Loaded plugins: langpacks, presto, refresh-packagekit

Error Summary

I really wanted to figure this out and finally got it working. If you're have the same problem check out the nevernote forum thread I did and maybe it will help you.

On a FedUp upgrade to F18 nevernote worked. However, nevernote 1.2 was installed so I tried to use yum to update with the nixnote-1.4-2.i386.rpm and I got the same error list above. So I use yum to remove the old nixnote rpm and then extracted the 1.4-2 rpm it with:

Code:

mkdir test && cd test
rpm2cpio <PATH TO>/nixnote-1.4-2.i386.rpm.rpm | cpio -idmv

Then I copied the ./usr directory contents over to /usr. Then I stopped the current running nevernote and made sure it wasnt running (ps -ef|grep java will show it if it is). Then I clicked the gnome3 application icon for nixnote. It started up but wanted me to re-enter my evernote creds and reauthorize. Once I did that it was up and running.

I wish NeverNote or NixNote would friggen pick a name and live with it. It seems that on sourceforge they want to call it nevernote...

OH and I did notice that the F18 FedUp upgrade system had a zeroed out .ICEauthority file. So maybe that is all I had to do on the fresh install system. So I put a new file in place with:

Code:

touch ~/.ICEauthority
chmod 600 ~/.ICEauthority

it was already owned.group by me...
