I wanted to install an updated version of Imlib2 (see 'Python help' thread).
At first, I built it, made a checkinstall RPM, did an rpm -Uvh <new Imlib2>, and
it installed okay.
Then I realized I had built it without using --prefix=/usr (bangs head against
table, table breaks).
So, I uninstalled it with 'rpm -e --nodeps', intending to rebuild imlib2
properly and reinstall. However, now:
rpm -Uvh /usr/src/RPM/RPMS/i586/imlib2-1.1.2-1mdk.i586.

...so, I thought what I would do is reinstall the *old* imlib2, but no go:
urpmi libimlib2_1
medium "contrib" uses an invalid list file:
mirror is probably not up-to-date, trying to use alternate method
Everything already installed
even though it is clearly no longer installed:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~>$rpm -qa | grep imlib
imlib-1.9.14-8mdk
libimlib2_1-loaders-1.0.6-4.1.92mdk
libimlib1-devel-1.9.14-8mdk
libimlib2_1-filters-1.0.6-4.1.92mdk
libimlib2_1-1.0.6-4.1.92mdk
libimlib1-1.9.14-8mdk
libimlib2_1-devel-1.0.6-4.1.92mdk
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~>$
So far nothing is *broken*, ie. I can install the newest imlib2 with just 'make
install' and everything appears to work OK, however I would like to have it
installed as an RPM so that MDK doesn't think it's missing at some point in the
future.
Thanks all!
