For some problems, it is difficult to pinpoint who may have responsibility. For kpackage problems, is it Mandrake for some mod they made to it? Or is it a problem introduced into the original source from KDE.org? The same actually goes for my problems with XFree86. It is maddening to me because, presumably, the source rpms that I have downloaded and tried to build are the very ones used by RedHat and Mandrake to produce their i586 rpms. The Mandrake source rpm build dies on me with simply: ... Processing files: XFree86-server-4.0.1-24mdk Finding Provides: (using /usr/lib/rpm/find-provides)... Finding Requires: (using /usr/lib/rpm/find-requires)... Provides: gamma_dri.so i810_dri.so mga_dri.so r128_dri.so Requires: XFree86 ld-linux.so.2 libc.so.6 libdl.so.2 libm.so.6 libGL.so.1 libICE.so.6 libSM.so.6 libvga.so.1 libX11.so.6 libXext.so.6 libXi.so.6 libXmu.so.6 libXt.so.6 libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.0) libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.1) libdl.so.2(GLIBC_2.0) libdl.so.2(GLIBC_2.1) libm.so.6(GLIBC_2.0) Obsoletes: xserver-wrapper Processing files: XFree86-glide-module-4.0.1-24mdk File not found: /var/tmp/XFree86-root/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/glide_drv.o Requires: XFree86-server = 4.0.1-24mdk Processing files: XFree86-xfs-4.0.1-24mdk Finding Provides: (using /usr/lib/rpm/find-provides)...

I do have initscripts >= 5.27-28mdk on my system, and this message isn't really telling me I am missing it, just that that module/subset of XFree86 requires that initscripts. No error messages. The Redhat source rpm dies similarly, but at a slightly different point in the build process. No error messages. I am left wondering if there is a problem with the source rpm, with the rpm 3.0.5, or some subtle problem elsewhere in my system...which is actually nothing unusual or bizarre. Basically a 7.1 installation with updates. It doesn't help that I cannot locate anything like a config.log in any of the XFree86-4.x directories. praedor root wrote: > > How do you expect them to fix that problem when they can't even make > kpackage work > > mikey > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > user #83815 > > Praedor Tempus wrote: > > > > I really don't get this.

There are no error messages anywhere that I can find yet [...]
