I was trying to install the latest sources of Glade, and found that it needed a newer version of GTK+ v2 than the mdk9.0 default install provides. This involves compiling glib, atk, pango and gtk+. I can compile and install glib, but one of the others detects that I have two copies of glib installed and refuses to continue.
If I try to uninstall GTK+ v2 dpmdrake tells me (understandably) that it will have to uninstall a huge number of applications. I am sure there is a simple way to do this, but in this case learning by trial and error is likely to involve trashing a lot of functionality. So - How do I upgrade a shared library under the noses of dozens of apps that are dependent on it? And what is this likely to do to rpmdrake's database? -- Richard Urwin
