They're only painful to a few people. > Just wanted to pay attention that the libraries are actually different > (at least the files libmad.so.0.2.1 in two packages have different > sizes). So it's good that Smart complained. YaST installed amarok and The different size is probably because they didn't strip the binaries. This happens automatically on SUSE >= 9.3 when you build a -debuginfo package (where debugging symbols are stripped out and stored into the - -debuginfo package, where the stripping out means a significant downsizing of the package). > just replaced the previously installed library without warning.

For the amarok package, it would be pretty much the same as it doesn't explicitly require the "mad" package but instead requires "libmad.so.X" My amarok builds are an exception because they explicitly require the package "mad" -- although it is bad practice, I chose to do so in this case because it makes it easier to just install my amarok RPMs and everything that's needed for complete codec support is pulled from my repository and from Packman. cheers - -- -o) Pascal Bleser http://linux01.gwdg.de/~pbleser/ /\\ <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _\_v The more things change, the more they stay insane. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFFm77Sr3NMWliFcXcRAptxAJ0SwmtqYUR0fB34PeN64LC/U7uabQCeJHmQ sMhEyUgCQk4NAn0eVMtP5Mo= =VCa3 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
