RE: [expert] What is LPRO?
I've read a number of articles on that issue. Seems the consensus is that i686 can cause problems. I thought that designation was originally made when the pentium pros came out. But if have athlons, etc, you need to stay with i586. Also seen that if you change the .LPR0 to LPRO or change to .glbl .LPR0 in the code you can avoid the .LPR0 issue.

Re: [expert] What is LPRO?
AH! Thank you! An answer, perhaps. I wonder if the problem would go away if I used egcs instead of gcc? This problem is new. I never had these problems prior to 7.1/7.2beta. Whatever changed to break things appears to have occured around those releases, more towards the 7.2beta side than the 7.1, though. This all began when I tried to upgrade my glibc, building it myself. Previous goes with glibc PRIOR to that in 7.2beta did not produce a bunch of errors. I could and did build kde without problems before. Thanks again. I may yet be able to avoid a reinstall of 7.0 followed by a long and torturous process of upgrading. I'll find out this evening. praedor Bill Piety wrote: I've read a number of articles on that issue. Seems the consensus is that i686 can cause problems.

Re: [expert] What is LPRO?
hmm. I'm not a coder or anything, but it seems to me like something is not properly linked, or some library or whatever is not installed on your system. As I said, I'm not a coder, but it looks to me like it's some variable name that's used in the program, and which is never initialized.

Re: [expert] What is LPRO?
This typically sound like your shared library is not properly installed. never heard of LPRO (is that O or zero) but if it cannot load /usr/lib/libkdecore.so.2 then this should be fixed. maybe check to which package /usr/lib/libkdecore.so.2 belongs to. (command: rpm -qfv /usr/lib/libkdecore.so.2) then verify if it is installed correct with rpm -V packagename (e.g. rpm -V kdelibs). You can alwasys try to install it again by doing the command: rpm -ivh --force packagename. Maybe a goos idea is to check if all your dependencies of the packages are working ok. If this does not help I am out of suggestions for now.

Wait for further input, but you'll probably have to go with all pre-builts or find out why your kdebase won't build. The primary message I get with these failed builds is about kde not being able to link a program, and that I should make sure that I compile qt with the same compiler that I am using for trying to build kdebase. Needless to say, the compiler is identical. I have tried recompiling and installing qt-1.44, there are no errors, but the result is the same for kdebase-1.1.2-61mdk and for kdeutils. kdelibs and kdesupport compile fine IF I first install their src rpms and then run "rpm -bb appropriate spec". If I try to run "rpm --rebuild .." on the same src rpm, it fails with the same message about failing to link a program, compile qt with the same compiler, etc. This does NOT work with kdebase. No matter how I try it, it fails with that same message. I am now looking at reinstalling 7.0 and upgrading from there again. It keeps appearing to me that some small subtle problem exists on my system since trying to upgrade MOST of it to 7.2beta, and that it could prove almost impossible to find that problem. I cannot compile gcc either, glibc compiling produces a HUGE list of "invalid character 45..." messages, but does produce installable glibc i686 rpms. Most other src rpms have built and installed fine. KDE is really proving to be a problem. I considered just going ahead and trying to build and install kde-1.95 but I cannot get qt2 to compile. IT gives me errors that seem to indicate that it cannot find files that IT supplies. That's as it stands now. It doesn't seem appropriate to submit a bug report about my kde problems because those src rpms are from Mandrake 7.1 while the rest of my system is, essentially, mandrake 7.2beta. praedor Keep in touch with http://mandrakeforum.com: Subscribe the "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" mailing list.
