Damn, this is fun.  

I have tried to BUILD the src.rpms, to no avail.  I have tried to
install the precompiled i586 rpms, get all of them installed except
one.  I cannot install kdebase.  I first tried kdebase-1.94.  Then,
overnight, the kde rpms were upgraded to 1.99.  I downloaded all of
them and tried to install THEM.  They all install except for kdebase.

Every time I try to install kdebase, I get this:

kdebase                     ################################unpacking of
archive failed on file /usr/share/apps/kdm/pics/users: cpio: unlink

Huh?  What the fu...?

I sure would like to once again be able to run kde and various and
sundry kde apps, but I
cannot.  I tried to run one or two apps, hoping I would get a partially
useful system
as is but when I try, I get this:

Trying to start konsole from an xterm (Gnome works fine, other wm work
fine):

konsole: error in loading shared libraries: /usr/lib/libkdecore.so.3:
undefined symbol: getButtonShift__14QPlatinumStyleRiT1

Great.  libkdecore is supplied by kdelibs.  I downloaded and installed
the kdelibs and kdelibs-devel precompiled binaries, yet kde doesn't 
like its own rpms!  It doesn't like what is IN its own rpms.

Can anyone shed light here?  I am getting close to going to RedHat
again.  I want and need a working or even semi-working system.
