Hello,
I thank you both for this information, but I'm not getting anything out of this package. the rpm --rebuild gives:
error: kdeutils-3.2.3-28.3.101mdk.src.rpm cannot be installed
the same happens with rpmbuild --rebuild (both as root and otherwise).
I assume that the package is at fault and will look for another source. Another question I have, is why I urpmi --install-src yield nothing.
--install-src looks to me like this would try an install the src.rpm. You really don't wanna do that
Thanks,
JHM
# rpm --rebuild kdeutils-3.3.2-20mdk.src.rpm

That was mostly for my own curiousity, specially since Greg an Mikkel have some misgiving about usin 'rpm --rebuild'
All I can say is "Works for Me" an always has
As you can see the src.rpm created more than two dozen kdeutils packages. More than I have with a normal install. This is why I cited 'rpm -Fvh' which would then only update the packages I'm usin.
Now, James, when you installed the system did you select "Development" ? Without those additions to your system you probly can't compile anything.
Other questions: are you just doin all this as an exercise? an why don't you just use Mandrakes' pre-compiled packages for kdeutils? IOW's, what are you tryin to accomplish?
