Installing GHEX help requested
Hello friends.
I am a novice user but needed the stability of RHEL6 for the new hardware so I am trying to learn how RHEL6 works and my questions are probably rather simplistic given the situation. Nonetheless I must ask.
libgnomeprintui22.x86_64 is a dependancy that is required to install GHEX
Below is the transaction report for the attempt. I am not used to Yum failing to install things and I am also unsure as what to do to be correct and safe as the admin of my wonderful RHEL6 system so it is wise to ask first and hack later.

um install ghex

You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

I asked about this on LinuxQuestions,org and it has been suggested I ask about what package installs the needed files.
This is the reply I recieved.

It's about the package "libgnomeprintui22.x86_64".
Probably ask Redhat how to activate the Redhat repo with libgnomeprintui22.

I would rather appear ignorant than mess up my system. I am an end user who is counting on the professional version that RHEL6 is.
