[Cooker] Re: netscape 4.70-6mdk-CookerMail

2000-01-13 Thread WH Bouterse

Okay I'll quit struggling and ask:

Cannot install the latest netscape 4.70-6mdkrpm
on L-M7.0b-5? To my knowledge All lib-rpms 
are installed from 7.0b.

I read about this problem somewhere else ?
It's the ol-compat-glib 5.3-2.0.7.4 needed and not found.
Have not had this kind of problem with netscape installs
since the REALLY buggy 4.5x versions.

I have been upgrading my test L-M6.1 machine

The latest rpms have given me more trouble than any others
for some reason? It is still working but continue to get
many of the older errors I was getting from 
a couple of weeks ago.

I  continue to have VERY ERRATIC behavior with Cooker-Mail
and Cooker Announcements. Some Days I get mail, others it stops 
completely or stalls to a dribble, half of my questions or error 
reports disappear into the VOID. I have had to resubscribe
several times in the last several weeks?
What is Happening? Am I going Nuts or is something really
Wrong with the paticular mail-list system being used?
I have not changed my mail-headers, etc.

This am Ak Time the Archive List is down too?
Hopefully a temporary glitch?

Please test this Linux-Mandrake7.0 a little more before
formally releasing it to the PUBLIC.

Hi,

What is the error messages?


 
 I read about this problem somewhere else ?
 It's the ol-compat-glib 5.3-2.0.7.4 needed and not found.

In 7.0, compat-glibc-5.3-2.0.7.5mdk and compat-libs-5.3-4mdk are
required.

If these packages are installed, check them (rpm -V package).

Please also check that you run Netscape by "/usr/bin/netscape" and not
"/usr/bin/netscape-communicator" or "/usr/bin/netscape-navigator".


Regards,

# rpm -Uvh compat-glibc-5.3-2.0.7.5mdk.i586.rpm
# compat-glibcunpacking of archive failed 
on file /usr/i386-glibc20-linux:

'rpm --force --nodeps -Uvh compat-glibc-5.3-2.0.7.5mdk.i586.rpm'
had the same results. Also 'ivh' no luck

I got the rpms from two different sites.

What next? 

Actually Mozilla M12 is not too bad these days!;/)

It's strange really, here are many people having great
difficulty getting OFF the List and I have 
GREAT DIFFICULTY staying ON the List !!???

Ah well, thats Linux for ya, always something new
lurking in the tundra.
