    Hi,
    I am dumb to Linpux. I tried to install Picasa on my A one and got the following errors. Please help.

    [root@localhost user]# rpm -Uvh /home/user/Downloads/picasa-2.7.3736-15.i386.rpm
    warning: /home/user/Downloads/picasa-2.7.3736-15.i386.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 7fac5991
    error: Failed dependencies:

    From Google's Fedora install instructions you should do the following (tested by me, and worked ok, but I think F-Spot works better then Picasa under Linux):

    I just downloaded the .rpm, opened it from firefox's list of downloaded items and had the gui package manager handle the installation. Then from terminal or run command prompt I ran "picasa", and the program set itself up.
