Kopete missing files

I am new to Linux. I have Suse 8.2

Kopete came with my distribution but it crashes everytime I load MSN. I have not tried any other chat programs.
I found what I believe is a new patch for it kopete 7.4.1 which was the MSN fix.
I downloaded the RPM and tried to use Yast to install it. During the installation it says it requires
libcrypto.so.o.9.7
libGLcore.so.1
libssi.so.0.9.7
I checked through my distribution disks and could not find these files. Could you tell me how to get them.

Ha ha!
Simple solution! I feel dumb! Thankyou!

Ok so I download the rpm from www.rpmseek.com and once download is completed I clicked "install with yast" and yast loads up and then shuts down. Then I download the same from another site and yast does the same thing.


There are so many choices for these rpms I check them over to make sure I have the right ones. Well for a person like me, when the rpm have different names then the files I am supposed to be downloading, I get confused. Why do they do that?

I have downloaded 3 rpms now. All these downloads were for the suse distrubution. but yast will not install it. Any suggestions?
