Greetings everyone, I have something going on here with what seems to be a discrepancy
between what my "Install software" and "Remove software" programs are telling me. :-/
I have found several packages that are showing as installed in 'Remove software", but
in "Install software" there is an update showing as available from "source:Update".
These packages have identical id's and changelogs, but the files and sizes don't
match. The packages shown as being required contain generally a lot of patches.
When I run "Mandrake update", no packages are showing as required, and I am told that
my system is up to date. I am completely baffled as to what is going on here.
These are the packages for which I have noted this apparent discrepancy:
devfsd-1.3.25-19.3mdk
arts-1.0.3-7.1mdk
kdelibs-3.0.3-30.1mdk
kdegraphics-3.0.3-11.1mdk
I expect there are others too.
I hope I have described my situation clearly enough. Is anyone else showing this
discrepancy?
Any feedback on this would be appreciated.
TIA.
