Description

Not _exactly_ sure what the right resolution here is, but I'm inclined to say nothing. The libglade package doesn't require the newer version of gnome-libs, it requires the version it specifies and libdb.so.2. (With the dependency on libdb.so.2 being only because it uses gnome-libs) We shipped libdb.so.2 in a separate package for years; it got moved into gnome-libs for 8.0, since nothing else used it. If you install another package on the system that provides this library, all sorts of things are going to go wrong. There are all sorts of ways one could break a system by installing a package that provides a spurious incorrect library version; don't think there is anything special about this one. |
