Just to keep people up-to-date, it will be a few hours before Branden is ready to upload a fixed, so please either downgrade or wait for the new package to be built, tested and uploaded. === xrender (0.8.3-2) unstable; urgency=medium * Urgency medium because the problem fixed by this release bites a lot of KDE users who are using XFree86 4.2.0 or 4.2.1 Debian packages. * Add new diversion of the actual old libXrender shared object (as opposed to diverting only the symlinks). This is necessary because ldconfig will recreate the libXrender.so.1 symbolic link in /usr/X11R6/ lib, which causes major confusion (and possibly errors from the dynamic loader) for anything that searches /usr/X11R6/lib before /usr/lib. / usr/X11R6/lib/libXrender.so.1.1 is now being diverted to /usr/X11R6/ lib/xlibs.libXrender-1.1.so.1.1. The diversion's name has to have "xlibs." preprended because ldconfig will attempt to operate on any plain file matching "lib*.so*". - debian/libxrender1.preinst - debian/libxrender1.postrm * Under duress, ship a symlink from /usr/X11R6/lib/libXrender.la to / usr/lib/libXrender.la. There appears to be a bug in libtool that that compels it to place absolute paths to .la files in other .la files. This symlink should allow a transition to a non-broken libtool (or the eventual recompilation of all libraries that transitively depend on libXrender, which is a lot of them) and will be removed in the future. - debian/libxrender-dev.links -- Branden Robinson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Wed, 8 Oct 2003 19:17:31 - -0500 === Thanks, and goodnight.

I'm pretty sure this is unrelated to the wrong accented characters, because I have no libXrender libraries in /usr/X11R6/lib/ in any of my machines. -- ricardo galli GPG id C8114D34 http://mnm.uib.es/~gallir/

I have to run XFree 4.3 so haven't seen this problem myself. I am working with Branden Robinson to help resolve this issue now. BTW think of LD_BIND_NOW as: LD_BIND_NOW="yes" kdeinit +kcminit +knotify it is passing the variable to kdeinit not being misquoted. That is the reason doing LD_BIND_NOW="yes kdeinit +kcminit +knotify" would be incorrect. Thanks, Chris signature.asc Description: Digital signature

If that works for you also check to see what the If you refer to adding: LD_BIND_NOW="true kdeinit +kcminit +knotify" This is wrong, because without the quotes it assigns true to LD_BIND_NOW and the execute kdeinit. By adding the quotes you assign to full string to the variable. That means that kdeinit isn't started there (and probably LD_BIND_NOW is tested as "true"). But kdeinit is still started later on, so I wonder the what's doing exactly that line there. > following points to: > > ls -al /bin/sh > lrwxrwxrwx1 root root4 2003-09-18 17:12 /bin/sh -> > bash > > I think not having the quotes is wrong but that bash doesnÂt care(?).
