Fedora 11 + Google Picasa
I use google picasa for my photos and the odd one I upload, but when i came to install it on a Fedora 11 install it wouldn’t let me login to the web galleries. Heres what i did to fix it.
If you’ve not already done so then install Wine. Now all you have to do is copy the wininet.dll.so file from /usr/lib/wine/ to /opt/google/picasa/3.0/wine/lib/wine/ overwriting the one that’s there.
It should now allow you to log in
Or you can just: yum install openssl-devel
that will fix it.
Thanks Paul,
During FUDCON-Latam, I tried to set up Picasa to upload the pictures.
Since that failed(I couldn’t login, just as you mentioned), I ended up using Conduit, which I found somewhat easier to use, as all I had to do was drop all pictures on a folder, and click on “sync” on conduit.
Thanx. works great!.
Needed both x86_64 and i586 in FC11 64
