Yeah, I tried that one once. Installs fine, but I get this when I try to
launch it:
pixie: relocation error: /usr/lib/pixie.so: undefined symbol:
_ZN11KMainWindow4showEv
Do you think this might be due to the RPM being a build for Cooker,
rather than for 9.2? Or might be related to the nonstandard KDE
directory structure in Mandrake that the app's developer complains about?
Nah, this is because of the different KDE libraries in 9.2 and 10.0. I thought it
might be like that, but hey, it's always worth trying ;)
Do you think there's any chance that installing from the
pixieplus-0.5.4-6mdk _source_ RPM would make any difference (and if so,
where does that source end up when I install the RPM)?
If you do grab the source RPM, you should run the following command on it:
rpm --rebuild pixieplus-0.5.4-6mdk.src.rpm
This will build the pixieplus binary RPM for your system. I think the default RPM
configuration will drop it into /usr/src/RPM/RPMS/i586.
(If you run 'rpm -ivh' on a source RPM, it extracts the sources to the
/usr/src/RPM/{SOURCES,SPECS} directories)
If you really hit a brick wall on this one, I can always build the RPM for you on the
MDK9.2 system we have here at home and magick it to you. :)

I configured, made, and installed from what rpm --rebuild gave me in
/usr/src/RPMS/BUILD-- though there was also a .tar.gz in
/usr/src/RPM/SOURCES after the rpm rebuild. Should I have unpacked
_that_ and used it? Or does it make a difference? And why doesn't

GQview has a slideshow option also. And otherwise you can use qiv. Run qiv -itsfru dirname for a slideshow of all images in dirname and its subdirectories. Remove the 'r' in the options to prevent images from showing randomly, and the 's' to prevent qiv from following the directory tree downwards. :-) Paul Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?
