Installing Hamachi on OpenSUSE 11.1 - Where do I get strip?

Question

I tried to install Hamachi this morning. However, when running "make install", I got the error: "install: cannot run strip: No such file or directory" Where do I get the strip binary? It's not in any of the repositories I have on my system.

Should be part of the GNU binutils package.

Having a look at the rpm contents on rpm.pbone.net, strip is part of binutils as stated by TCampbell but you might need libc6 or libc6-dev installed also

pbone is a nice site for finding rpm's, it can be found here

hope that helps

A good way of finding out required dependencies is zypper. For instance

$ zypper what-provides /usr/bin/strip
Loading repository data...
Reading installed packages...
S | Name     | Type    | Version  | Arch | Repository       
--+----------+---------+----------+------+------------------
i | binutils | package | 2.19-9.3 | i586 | openSUSE-11.1-Oss

Admittedly you needed to know that it's /usr/bin/strip and not strip, but that can be guessed.
