--- Comment #9 from Cristian Rodríguez
(In reply to comment #5) I just tryed to rebuild kdepim3 from updates and found the problem, so unfortunately I can't tell how many more packages are affected. The xorg packages I have installed are those from opensuse 11.1 OBS repository. The xorg-x11-libs devel packages which had needed "la" files were xorg-x11 -devel, -libs-devel, -libSM-devel, -libX11-devel, -libxcb-dev el, libXext-devel, -libXfixes-devel and -libXrender-devel
So, you are manually rebuilding instead of using the OBS ?
(they are just tiny text files and won't take any noticeable space)
Space is just one very secondary issue, la files has been removed distro-wide in order to stop (better said, workaround) a very insane libtool behavior, that links everything recursively, a trap from which is almost impossible to get out without getting rid of that files. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
