<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Objet : [kde] Problem upgrading to KDE 3.0 from KDE 2.1</FONT>
</P>
<BR>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>Howzit;</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>I'm trying to upgrade from KDE 2.x to KDE 3.0 First thing which I did,</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>was glibc upgrade and XFree upgrade. I'm running RedHat 7.0 on i686.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Upgrade for glibc been done by rpm packages. I need to use --force but</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>system now running fine and containing following glibc packages:</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>glibc-common-2.2.4-18</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>glibc-2.2.4-18</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>glibc-devel-2.2.4-18</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>These packages been recommended by RedHat to upgrade from old 7.0</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>distro. This packages also been necessary to install new XFree server. I</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>installed over old one from binary tarballs and now I'm running version</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>4.2.0 with previous config files. Up to this point everything going</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>good. System is up and running with old KDE 2.x, new XFree 4.2.0 and new</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>glibc 2.2.4</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>I downloaded RedHat rpms for KDE 3.0 from Austria mirror site</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2><A HREF="ftp://download.au.kde.org/" TARGET="_blank">ftp://download.au.kde.org/</A> According to rpms first is necessary to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>install CUPS packages because they're needed by Qt 3.0.3 package. I've</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>CUPS installed from sources some time ago. My version is 1.1.10 rpms</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>offer version 1.1.14 Here is first problem. Packages require libs:</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>libcrypto.so.2</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>libssl.so.2</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>I try to search at <A HREF="http://www.rpmfind.net/" TARGET="_blank">http://www.rpmfind.net/</A> for them, but no luck. I also</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>download upgrade package for OpenSSL from RedHat version 0.9.6-9 but</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>this one offer only those libs as so.1 I cannot move any further in</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>upgrade because all packages require this libs. I also tried to make</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>symlinks for so.2 but does not help.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>Another problem is that Qt rpm require objects named:</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>libXft.so.1</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>libXrendered.so.1</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>They're on my system in directory /usr/X11R6/lib Directory is listed in</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>ld.so.conf file and I ran ldconfig, but rpm still reporting them as a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>missing components. Do you have any suggestions for me?</FONT>
</P>
