Re: [X2Go-User] x2goserver Requires: base64 - x2go-user

      Thanks, Mike,
I already had the executable so the "yum update --skip-broken" it proposed did the trick but I was flagging it as a possible package dependency issue.  I've never done package building but for folks who build the x2go rpms, changing the dependency from it needing the "base64" package to it needing the "coreutils" package would resolve the:
...
x2goserver-4.1.0.4-0.0x2go1.0.git20210418.1930.heuler.el7.x86_64
(x2go-nightly-epel)
Requires: base64
resulting in a smoother install.
Cheers!
Scott

Hi folks,

repo file installed.  I disabled the default and enabled the nightly
and gave it the old "yum update "x2go*"

You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
There is no package in standard repos that I could find names
base64.  Any tips?
Cheers!
I encountered the same with the DEB packages. The base64 executable
normally is available in one of the distro's core packages (in
general, there might be exceptions).
