Problem faced during the installation of newly released fluka in fedora 33

Dear Fluka expert,

Recently I created a FEDORA 33 system and tried to install new fluka version along with flair. While installing flair, these dependencies are shown (see the attached figure) which I am unable to solve. Can you please suggest how to solve this ?

Regards,
Riya

Dear Riya,

first install try to install pydicom

dnf install python3-pydicom

then flair and flair-geoviewer at the same time:

rpm -ivh flair-3.1-6.noarch.rpm flair-geoviewer-3.1-6.x86_64.rpm

Cheers,
David

Thank you David, it is installed now. Whenever a new fluka version is available, do we have to remove the older one first (by rpm -e (package name)) or is there any automatic update option available ??

Thanks,

Dear Riya,

you can use the command:

rpm -Uvh <package>

to update an already installed package, but there is nothing wrong with removing the old one first and then installing the new one.

For Flair there is the option to add the repository. Then the system update will install the latest Flair version automatically. But, this option is not available for FLUKA.

Cheers,
David
