Help with LICQ

[ThunderVamp9]

I see LICQ in the Start menu already, but when I click on it to run it, nothing happens, it starts to load and then just disappears, without actually running the prog. SO I figured I'd download and install it.

 

Trying to install LICQ on my system, using Mandrake 9, and getting this error:

 

<ome/thundervamp9/tmp/licq-kde-gui-1.2.0a-2.i386.rpm;echo RESULT=$?

error: failed dependencies:

libpng.so.2 is needed by licq-kde-gui-1.2.0a-2

RESULT=1

 

Anyone know what these files are, where to get them, or how to make LICQ work?

 

I'm new to Linux, and would like to start using it regularly, but there are some apps I just HAVE to have, and ICQ is one of them.

 

Also, what's a good CD Burning prog, and DVD prog?

 

Thanks!

To solve your LICQ problem, I would suggest using EveryBuddy. It should have been installed with Mandrake 9.0 as well. It allows you to see all your contacts from MSN, AIM, Yahoo, ICQ, Jabber using one program. And since you use all these IM services, it may fit more with what you want.

...and last but not least, ALL licq-packages are on the distro-iso's, so do a search for "licq" in your software installer.

You should try :

 

urpmi licq-kde

Under root of course (gain root access though
