Pending such sage advice, I installed a fresh cooker from this am, cuz
when I tried to reboot into my LM8.0 which I had --forced into
compliance, I couldn't get a working x.
I was able using mc and lynx to find and install the missing dep for the
new arts I installed (duh-libarts..) but the rest of the kdefiles I
installed are not as forthcoming about any unsatisfied
dependencies...since they either say that they aren't installed (when I
try to group uninstall them) or that they are already installed (when I
individually select and try to install/upgrade them). Suggestions?
