Description of problem: Installing quadkonsole does not bring in kdebase. quadkonsole fails to start because libkonsolepart.la is missing. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Very Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install gnome desktop 2. yum install quadkonsole Actual results: quadkonsole fails to start here is some output from strace [pid 3276] lstat64("/root", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0750, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 [pid 3276] lstat64("/root/.kde", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0700, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 [pid 3276] lstat64("/root/.kde/lib", 0xbf97fc4c) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) [pid 3276] lstat64("/usr", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 [pid 3276] lstat64("/usr/lib", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=45056, ...}) = 0 [pid 3276] lstat64("/usr/lib/kde3", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 [pid 3276] access("/usr/lib/kde3", F_OK) = 0 [pid 3276] lstat64("/usr/lib/kde3", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 [pid 3276] access("/root/.kde/lib/kde3/libkonsolepart.la", R_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) [pid 3276] access("/usr/lib/kde3/libkonsolepart.la", R_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) [pid 3276] lstat64("/root", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0750, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 [pid 3276] lstat64("/root/.kde", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0700, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 [pid 3276] lstat64("/root/.kde/lib", 0xbf97fc4c) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) [pid 3276] lstat64("/usr", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 [pid 3276] lstat64("/usr/lib", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=45056, ...}) = 0 [pid 3276] access("/usr/lib", F_OK) = 0 [pid 3276] lstat64("/usr/lib", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=45056, ...}) = 0 [pid 3276] access("/root/.kde/lib/libkonsolepart.la", R_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) [pid 3276] access("/usr/lib/libkonsolepart.la", R_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) [pid 3276] rt_sigprocmask(SIG_UNBLOCK, [ABRT], NULL, 8) = 0 [pid 3276] tgkill(3276, 3276, SIGABRT) = 0 [pid 3276] --- SIGABRT (Aborted) @ 0 (0) --- [pid 3276] rt_sigaction(SIGALRM, {SIG_DFL}, {SIG_DFL}, 8) = 0 [pid 3276] alarm(3) = 0 [pid 3276] getrlimit(RLIMIT_NOFILE, {rlim_cur=1024, rlim_max=1024}) = 0 [pid 3276] close(3) = 0 [pid 3276] close(4) = 0 [pid 3276] close(5) = 0 [pid 3276] close(6) = 0 [pid 3276] close(7) = 0 [pid 3276] close(8) = 0 Expected results: quadkonsole should require kdebase as it provides libkonsolepart.la allowing quadkonsole to run.
