Cheers Anders Well if you are using the 9.0 or later GTK2 then you must rebuild from source each blessed package (put them all in one dedicated directory and rpm --rebuild * from within that directory) CAUSE-- 9.0 and later is done with a significanlty different compiler and glibc versin and is binary incompatible with previous versions... And BSD's port system will do nothing about that. Civileme Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

RE: [newbie] Updating GTK
is there a simple way to update GTK to version 2 on a Mandrake 8.2-system, the thing is that I do not wish to do it package by package, although timewise I would have the time to fix that. This is a thing where I find the RPM-system inferior to for example FreeBSD's portsystem. OMG, someone has not read our posts about urpmi try using urmpi to update everything, it will check for dependencies and everything... Rob Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?
