K - it's mux.
I'm having serious issues with Redhat right now - we really aren't
liking each other much. Out of sheer frustration, I just reinstalled
from scratch.
My story. Work says "Hey, you know linux, come to R&D!". I love
this idea - linux at work is a Good Thing. Downfall - I'm not allowed
to use anything but RedHat 5.0. So, being a longtime slackware user, I
immediately grabbed the ImageMagick bin tar.gz's, plugins, etc,
installed them. Somehow this gargled with my libraries - hacking around
it and changing a LOT of symlinks by hand finally got me into E long
enough to impress my co-workers and whiten my teeth - but then it
pooched itself.
It seemed for a while that it was only dying when I ran ldconfig -
figured that one out, I had a load of mispointed libs etc.
Then, finally, it ceased to work. I don't remember the specifics of
why, but it was officially toasted, so I just decided to reinstall -
nothing important that wasn't backed up on my box at work anyway.
So, here I am with a vanilla RH5 box. I've installed libtiff,
libpng, libjpeg, libz, libgif and imlib 1.3 from RPM's. Enlightenment
wouldn't compile until I did the Makefile fix and added the -lImlib etc
by hand (btw - imlib installed itself but couldn't find itself until I
linked libImlib.so to libImlib.so.1.3.0 by hand). Now, it compiles, but
segfaults with a "Th-Th-Th-Th-Tha-That's Me Going (*insert obscene sound
here*) Folks!".
Any ideas on this one? I haven't heard of a generic fix, but then
again, for the amount of time I've had to IRC lately, that's not saying
much. I dislike Redhat thoroughly.
Cheers,
- mux.
