problems with kdelibs3

2001-04-18 Thread Michael Sullivan
I currently am running Libranet 1.90, based on Debian Potato

It comes with KDE2.1, and I wanted to upgrade to 2.1.1, but ran into 
difficulty...

With apt-get update and apt-get upgrade, I consistently have a large number 
of KDE packages held back.  So I tried to install them using apt-get install


I tried to install kdebase-libs
it wanted kdelibs3, which I tried to install :

manjushri:/home/michael# apt-get install kdelibs3

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
 
Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
 
Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
  kdelibs3: Depends: libssl096 but it is not installable
E: Sorry, broken packages



So, i tried to apt-get install libssl096- this is what happened:

Package libssl096 has no available version, but exists in the database.
This typically means that the package was mentioned in a dependency and
never uploaded, has been obsoleted or is not available with the contents
of sources.list
E: Package libssl096 has no installation candidate


I'm a Debian newbie...
Does this mean there is a problem with the build of a package - perhaps a 
typo or something?  When I check the database of all Debian packages for 
libssl*  I see:

Are you sure about that?  I'm using the 0.97 drivers and I *think* I have
anti-aliasing working.  At least $QT_XFT = 1 and the fonts seem to look
somewhat better then they did before to my untrained eye.

Well, that 'fixes' MY problem... =(

When you say next, could you be more specific? I'm using 0.9-796 right now...

Thx!

Logout Script

2001-04-18 Thread Burkhard Perkens-Golomb
How can I start a script to read any input before KDE exits?

Before KDE 2.1 I had this in .xsession:

,
| 
| # Now start KDE
| startkde
| # KDE has finished, start a xterm with a logout script
| xterm -e path_to_logout_script
`

When I quit KDE the xterm opens and starts the logout script. This
script can start a backup and reads user input with the "read"
command. Worked quite well in KDE 2.0 but not in 2.1: Now the xterm
pops up but I can't enter any letters, no input in this xterm
possible.

Is there a clean way to start a logout script when I exit KDE?

TIA,

Burkhard

I understand the desire to help the developers out more..however I use this
as my desktop and speed is important to me. :)The current builds of
2.2alpha have the basic debugging turned on and when there are problems that
require anything beyond that it doesn't take me long to rebuild a package 
with --enable-debug...however running my desktop with that would be crazy.
