Description Andrea Sterbini 2000-04-12 20:49:44 UTC
When I start kpackage I get the message:

[root@marvin /root]# kpackage
kpackage: Symbol `rpmHeaderFormats' has different size in shared object,
consider
re-linking

Seeing the message mentioned, and being very accustomed to building my own
RPM's, I took the provided SRPM and rebuilt using "rpm -ba kpackage.spec". This
eliminates the loader message, but causes a strange behavior. To replicate,
follow these steps: 1)Rebuild the package. 2)Load a RPM which attempting to
install would generate errors (duplicate files, etc.) into kpackage via a
single-click on the package. 3)Do a test install (which generates error
dialogs). 4) Cancel the install. 5)Viola. An errant error dialog results, and
above the RPM section is now an erroneous KISS section. I am going to attempt to
attach xwd files which illustrate the errors.

The problem is your kpackage was linked against either a newer or older
version of kde-libs and thus the problems.  Recompiling from SRPMS should
fix it though I suggest updating any older components that may be the
culprate as there is usually a reason a newer version came out ;)
