Ok, I'll do that. > > you do have some build failures in there right now with the inability to > > find the exo version in some packages). > > AFAICS these are because of missing dependencies (e.g. > ristretto), I'll fix them soon. > > I wasn't aware you're using unversioned links into the > development packages, wouldn't it be better to link to the > Factory packages or to at least use versioned symlinks to known > good versions? I am using links, I just blindly accepted this change without checking to see what it was, it was my fault, normally I test stuff in openSUSE:Tumbleweed:Testing first, but that is being used for the big KDE 4.8 update at the moment, and I thought this was a minor bugfix. Again, it's really my fault, but in the end, I need to know the Prefer: line anyway :) > I'm also planning to make libxfce4ui, libxfce4util, and > libxfcegui4 conform to the shared library policy so some more > issues like this may come up. Ok, if I run into further problems like this, I'll watch the project configuration to see if that's the needed resolution. thanks, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] To contact the owner, e-mail: [email protected]
