RE: [Cooker] kdelibs
Not messed up, just not installed. Kdelibs fails to install for some reason (perhaps because kcmclock does not create "default" subdirectory as a symbolic link???). Anyway to fix: (DEFAULT here refers to /usr/share/doc/HTML/default) 1. Rename DEFAULT to anything you want. 2. Install kdelibs with "rpm -ivh kdelibs1.1.2-8mdk". This will create a new DEFAULT implemented as a symbolic link. 3. Copy the contents of the old DEFAULT to the new one. 4. Delete the old DEFAULT. 5. Enjoy things working properly with kdelibs installed now... > -Original Message- > > The kdelibs rpm package seems to be messed up. As a result all my > toolbar icons are messed up.

[Cooker] kdelibs
The kdelibs rpm package seems to be messed up. As a result all my toolbar icons are messed up. Clicking on the >xmp icons gives me an error message about pixmap is empty, perhaps some missing file. This is the rpm error message. warning: /usr/share/config/kdebug.areas saved as /usr/share/config/kdebug.areas.rpmorig kdelibs ##unpacking of archive failed on file /usr/share/doc/HTML/default: cpio: unlink failed - Is a directory William
Re: [Cooker] alpha architecture..
I am the systems administrator for a University and have an Alpha machine which I can use to test your builds. I will setup an FTP for the binaries and host them for others on my server.

OSF/1. :) yes it's a well-known "feature" :) But I'm afraid that we can't compile much packages with this compiler (AFAIK it's an old fashion, ansi-C only compiler, but maybe it's better since the time I was trying to recompile KDE packages under OSF/1) -- < Gael DUVAL - [EMAIL PROTECTED] > < +33-661 957 028 FAX: +1-435 304 1806 >

But that won't be until payday :) Continuing the Mandrake tradition of using modern compilers and settings, I would suggest trying to get Mandrake going with the Compaq C compiler (http://www.compaq.com/linux -- then click on Software in the left-hand column) This produces MUCH better code for AXP processors, as it is descended from the Tru64 compiler currently being used on Compaq Tru64 a.k.a. Digital UNIX a.k.a. OSF/1. :) Also look at the license and see if Mandrake can actually bundle it up and distribute it with the operating system. That would be a BIG plus to the Alpha port.

[Cooker] alpha architecture..
Hi, I've continued my quest compiling packages on my alpha... ;-) Now... where can I upload them to share them with you all?? I think it's pretty anti-social if I bomb all of it up to the /incoming directory on ftp.linux-mandrake.com. (I don't have the bandwidth or space to host them myself, I'm sorry). _IS_ there anybody who will use / test the packages?? Greetings, Stefan

You're right, most Canadian sites seem to have a problem with speed (and if you look at a traceroute it's no wonder). sunsite.ualberta.ca seems to provide good speeds for me both at work and at home, as SunSites are funded by Sun and get good machines and lots of bandwidth (160Kbytes/sec right now). metalab.unc.edu used to be sunsite.unc.edu (at U of NC) and is a very popular mirror site. Besides, more mirrors can't hurt, right? All of the non-North American sites don't do me much good, but they are useful for some people. These mirrors will be useful to some people.

[Cooker] various versions of netscape localization files
Kaixo!
I built netscape-castellano and netscape-walon for netscape 4.7
and David Baudens will issue a netscape-francais for netscape 4.7 too.
But not everybody wants to upgrade their netscape binary, so it would be
nice to keep, for the netscape-* only, the various different versions
(versions not releases). Does the automation scripts already handle that
or should I do something special ? I fear that if I simply upload to
.../upload/{S,}RPMS/ that the old versions will be lost...

Full install goes great. The setup detects my initio scsi card and loads the drivers. On restart though, no scsi devices are detected and the system halts with error messages about faile to load /sbin/modprobe try passing the init= to kernel Any ideas? Thanks, William Harwell
