Viber and WhatsApp are getting popular any ideas about those?

  • Viber
    You can install it from here https://www.viber.com/products/linux/
    Unfortunately Viber license does not allow to redistribute it by others, so it cannot be added to OpenMandriva repositories. Second Viber does not provide source code.

  • WhatsApp
    Does not have any linux client. You can use web client https://web.whatsapp.com/

Well it’s not urpmi fault. Blame VIber, whos not allow anyone to redistribute it.
Can you please post output here ?

This means viber.rpm is compiled against old Qt5 framework. We can not do much except talk to viber release its sources.
