Hi,
Recently, I installed Mycroft on my main Mageia machine. The installation appears OK and Mycroft starts when commanded, but there seem to be some files missing from my machine:
pygobject3-devel
mpg123-plugins-pulseaudio
fann-devel
redhat-rpm-config
As Mageia is based upon Red Hat, it is entirely possible that RH RPMs could be installed as substitutes. However, inspection shows that there is a pygobject3-devel and a lib64fann-devel present.
Not sure what to do next. Any suggestions?

It sounds like you’ve installed Mycroft-core. That’s abandonware, but there is a maintained option. You’ve met this community at a very unusual time.
Here’s some more information. Please feel free to follow up! I think you’d be the new crew’s first Mageia user.
If push absolutely comes to shove, we can fix you up with a Dockerized assistant.
