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 cmodper@mobile.compumod.com.au
