>ksplash: error while loading shared libraries: libqt-mt.so.3: cannot
>open shared object file: No such file or directory
could you please check if the file /etc/ld.so.conf contains the line
/usr/lib/qt-3.0.5/lib ?
if not, please add this line in /etc/ld.so.conf and restart
ldconfig as root. it should work again.
>Add /usr/lib/qt-3.0.5/lib to /etc/ld.so.conf and run ldconfig
Yes, this fixed it. I assume its absence is down to a problem somewhere in a
KDE package install script.
it's a problem in qt scriptlet in RHL 7.1, which is fixed in new qt in RHL 8/9 |
Description of problem: Installed all KDE packages from RHSA-2003-002, RHSA-2003-235 and RHSA-2003-269. On X login to KDE it reports failure to start kdeinit and ksmserver and returns to the X login screen. Examining .xsession-errors after failure to login shows that loading kdeinit and ksmserver both report failure to load shared library libqt-mt.so.3. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): All KDE components in RHSA-2003-002, RHSA-2003-235 and RHSA-2003-269, but the specific problem component seems to be kdelibs-3.0.5a-5.i386.rpm How reproducible: Every time you try to login to KDE. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Upgrade to KDE packages from RHSA-2003-002, RHSA-2003-235 and RHSA-2003-269, 2. Login to X-Windows specifying KDE desktop. 3. Additional info: Based on guesswork because it was a library load failure decided to forcibly revert to kdelibs-3.0.3-8.3.i386.rpm from RHSA-2002-220. This breaks dependencies so forcing by rpm -U --nodeps --force kdelibs-3.0.3-8.3.i386.rpm is necessary. kdelibs-3.0.5a-4.i386.rpm from RHSA-2003-002 shows the same problem as kdelibs-3.0.5a-5.i386.rpm. This allowed KDE to load. However kppp aborts right after establishing a connection, so forcibly reverted this as well to kppp-3.0.3-3.2.i386.rpm from RHSA-2002-220. Enough now works to be usable, but I don't know if this forced dependency mis-match has broken anything else. The following qt packages are installed on the system rpm -qa |fgrep qt qt-3.0.5-17 qt-designer-3.0.5-17 qt2-2.3.1-8 qt-devel-3.0.5-17 The following messages appear in .xsession-errors. The ones beginning ksplash: and Q are presumably KDE problems. ksplash: error while loading shared libraries: libqt-mt.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory DCOPServer up and running.

Further available patches including a lot of KDE patches were applied in Mar 2003. The latest available patches were applied 18 Sep 2003, which introduced this problem.
