STOP PRESS - Thanks to Howard Mann I now have the ecgs packages - Thanks
Howard! Assume this fixes the problem (they were to be found at
http://rufus.w3.org/Linux/RPM). I still don't know why the libc6 rpm
packages weren't "complete" but if there is no follow up to this, assume
it's all AOK now!

[what follows is what I wrote before checking email!!]

Thanks, but according to the rpm tool, I already have libs, base, and
support already loaded. These packages came as follows:

kdebase-1.0-1.i386.rpm
kdelibs-@VERSION@-1.i386.rpm
kdesupport-1.0-7rh51.i386.rpm

Now I have to admit to a bit of suspicion about  "
kdelibs-@VERSION@-1.i386.rpm" - ie. the naming system had a couple of
hickups, but the query info has the following to say:

Libraries for the K Desktop Environment.

Included with this package are:

jscript: KDE javascript library
kdecore: KDE core library
kdeui: KDE user interface library
kfmlib: KDE file manager library
khtmlw: KDE HTML widget
mediatool: KDE mediatool library

This doesn't seem to include any egcs stuff anyway. Anyone think of anything
else I should be checking?

Again, many thanks in advance,

Ron
