Re: [Cooker] Why the fuck are the ftp sites so FUCKED?
And now they took off read/execute permissions on the Mandrake-devel directory. I don't mean to sound like an asshole and sorry about the language, but what gives? I'm not really looking for the ISO, I want a working FTP mirror that I can mirror to our FTP servers so that we can test out network installs. It's just frustrating at this point. Anyone have a working FTP mirror (not ISOs)? Any idea of when the sunsite.uio.no main mirror will be back up?

I decided to wait for the 7.2beta to see if it fixed the problem, but it didn't, so here goes: My card is supported by XFree 4.0.1 with acceleration (2d, and 3d I think.) This is specified on the driver status pages: http://www.xfree86.org/4.0.1/Status6.html#6 When I install it asks, "Do you want to keep X 3.3" and I always click on "no". In the packages section, I always pick the 4.x version of XFree86-server. Yet, despite this, it always winds up automatically installing XFree86-server-common-3.3.6 and XFree86-Mach64-3.3.6 without asking me. There could be a bug in the installer about 3D configuration because Mach64 is only accelerated (3D) with XFree 3.3. I take a look on this issue, thanks for the report. François.

[Cooker] WindowMaker-0.62.1-17mdk - icons stop showing
Just a "feature" not a bug. Several of the standard icons for WindowMaker are missing on the screen when one _updates_ to build 17. The problem seems due to the fact that icons were relocated from /usr/share/WindowMaker/Icons to /usr/X11R6/share/WindowMaker/Icons. Unfortunately old user settings ignore completely the /usr/X11R6 path. Meanwhile the restoring of settings through "wmaker.inst" (well it's the standard installation tool isn't it?) delivers them to correct settings but it restores the old "traditional" WindowMaker menu. This may be good or bad, depending on how users know something more than a click on a bitmap. I have users here that look horrified to a black screen with a flashing underscore. Their reaction is worse than a earthquake victim. For such people, this menu change can be nuclear for their brains... Ektanoor

[Cooker] ImageMagick-5.2.3-1 rebuild requires ImageMagick-devel???
One more package requiring its own compiled libraries/includes on /usr. This looks more and more like a plague... People please note these things in a more careful way. This is the worst error Mandrake may carry. Right now it may be not so sensitive in a 90% Lintel environment with a very fresh distro. But a small change on processor architecture, a devel package of a previous version/build. And trouble will come. Presently I'm building packages for a PII Kalamath, for this I use a dual-Celleron machine. And I have to use a Pentium devel package to build this stuff... Now imagine a relation like: Athlon-Itanium-Pentium (yeah, it's a "stupid" relation but think about the meaning)... If we proceed this path that will break possible cross-compiling chances. More than building the package from one strike. The libraries are already there, right? On that same package that you are building right now. So why they should be "previously" located on /usr/lib???. And what if I use an old package? Well maybe I have 500 tons of binaries that depend on this old pack... Isn't it possible? What if I do need that old package still on my station? Why I do need to "upgrade" before rebuilding? Why do i need to downlod _both_ the source and the binaries of one and the same package? What if I don't note that versions/builds differ? In this particular case that is what happens... ImageMagick-5.2.3-1 requires only "ImageMagick-devel"... So no wonder if compiles/builds will fail. Or we get some schizo binaries and get wondering about what went wrong... What if I don't need this library on this machine? Why I should install it? Maybe I need to build it for something else. To study the stuff, to install on other machine, to make a later install... No, you first must install it... Doesn't this slightly remind something to you? Ektanoor

[Cooker] current cooker hd install broken
the current cooker hd install will not install several packages that were updated yesterday...the critical package seems to be setup, but several others deliver the same "problem with installing" message...with setup, it appears that install is looking for setup-2.1.9-15mdk.noarch.rpm, but the package is now setup-2.1.9-16mdk.noarch.rpm... i suspect that this install problem would be the same for other than hd installs... frank -
