Hello, I did delete the kde/pics directory...I didn't save it, I rpm -e'd and/or deleted EVERYTHING that had to do with kde or qt and then reinstalled the rpms. This time kdebase did install but, like you, nothing ran. As for a dependency, the errors I am seeing relate to kdelibs one way or another. The error I get when trying to run any kde app is tied to an error with libkdecore.so.3 (supplied by kdelibs). The error I get when trying to build the kdebase source is tied to /usr/bin/dcopidl2cpp, also supplied by kdelibs. I did upgrade my pam rpms but the problems remain, so it cannot be that, in this case at least. I don't know...I may try to rebuild the kdelibs src.rpm (using the --target=i586 to avoid any i686-related problems - which defeats the point of my building the src in the first place) and then the kdebase source again. For now, I am running Gnome/enlightenment without problems. praedor james wrote: > > Praedor, > (Hope I spelled that correctly) How I got the base to install correctly is > by removing the file /usr/share/apps/kdm/pics to pics.old then and only then > did kde2base istall........ however........ it still didn't run.
