Hello all, Back in time I switched from -release to -current, but I'm installing from snapshots. I saw the announce about uvideo stuff and I am very interested about this that's why I installed the most recent snapshot for testing. The date of the snapshot is 19-June, I also proceeded to install some packages to test the video camera. One package people speak about is ekiga. And here is the surprise: a lot of unexpected errors on install using pkg_add: "Can't install <package...>: Can't resolve <lib...>. Of course ekiga is highly dependent of gnome stuff, so you get a lot of install. First errors are encountered on cairo and pongo stuff, related to gnome.
I tried to install gnome-session all together, but the errors are present. Don't bother to tell about relation from kernel and glibc , I waited for the packages to be close to the kernel compilation date. IT should work. I don't complain, but what I can do. I am not sure about a diagnose, I think The packages are broken. But I'm not an expert and I don't want to make stupid appreciation on others people great work. I can send the exact errors. It will be copy by hand, since my OBSD computer is almost not installed, without X. Please send and idea, am I doing something wrong ? The other way will be to use anonymous cvs and compile everything from scratch, but I'm not sure about this. Is the snapshot a reliable stuff or not ? Thanks
