I find Notecase Pro indispensable and it is one of the first things I install when setting up a new Fedora Linux system. I just installed Fedora-20 and Centos-6.5 on another computer and in both cases the rpm [notecase_pro-3.8.7-1.fc20.x86_64.rpm] would not run due to dependency problems. Yum install insists on providing the i686 version which is not appropriate for the 64 bit computer and 64 bit Notecase Pro. I had to Google for and install the right one in both Fedora and Centos.

Am I missing something?
Yes. Why do you install an i686 library package manually like that? If you want the x86_64 lib, you need to specify it correctly.
Why don't you use "yum localinstall …" when installing the notecase package, which would let Yum resolve the dependencies for you?
