I meant to mention this in my first post. I downloaded the new koffice debs overnight, but did not install them until later in the morning. ~$ locate /usr/lib/libkformula /usr/lib/libkformula.so.3 /usr/lib/libkformula.so.3.0.0 ~$ ls -l /usr/lib/libkformula.* ls: /usr/lib/libkformula.*: No such file or directory I interpret that to mean that the lib was there when dlocatedb was updated early this morning, but has since been removed, presumably when I installed the new koffice debs. To answer your question: ~$ ls -l /usr/lib/libkformula.so.3 ls: /usr/lib/libkformula.so.3: No such file or directory ~$ ls -lL /usr/lib/libkformula.so.3 ls: /usr/lib/libkformula.so.3: No such file or directory ~$ A little further digging led me to this: ~$ dpkg -L koffice-libs |grep libkformula /usr/lib/libkformulalib.so.3.0.0 /usr/lib/libkformulalib.so.3 ~$ ls -l /usr/lib/libkformula* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 Nov 20 14:48 /usr/lib/libkformulalib.so.3 -> libkformulalib.so.3.0.0 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 658728 Nov 19 19:03 /usr/lib/libkformulalib.so.3.0.0 ~$ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libkformulalib.so.3 /usr/lib/libkformula.so.3 ~$ ~$ ~$ ~$ kword koffice (lib kofficecore): WARNING: libkospell.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory ~$ ~$ dlocate libkospell koffice-libs: /usr/lib/libkospell.so.4.1.0 koffice-libs: /usr/lib/libkospell.so.4 ~$ ls -l /usr/lib/libkospell* ls: /usr/lib/libkospell*: No such file or directory ~$ ~$ locate libkospell /usr/lib/libkospell.so.4 /usr/lib/libkospell.so.4.1.0 ~$ I interpret that to mean that, like libkformula, libkospell was there until I installed the new koffice debs. Am I reading that correctly? And BTW, I mean no offense to Isaac. He has gone to some trouble to upload the debs and I do not mean to disparage his work. I'm just trying to figure out what's going on. -- Bud Rogers <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> KD5SZ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
