I wanted to install XFCE 3.44 on my SuSE 6.3 system. The RPM required libjpeg.so.62, so, I installed the rpm from 6.4 directory on the ftp site. XFCE installed and works fine except when trying to display a jpeg, when an error is returned stating: Wrong JPEG library version: library is 62, caller expects 61 Any help is greatly appreciated!

Bad move -- installing a 6.4 rpm on a 6.3 system. The two systems are built on different library versions, so incompatibilities must show up. You could: 1) Update your whole system to 6.4, or 2) Build Xwindows from source, using libjpeg.so.62. -- Never trust a man in a suit -- cll -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/support/faq

Yeah, I fugred that it wasn't the sharpest move. :) I reinstalled the original library and built a synlink to it for libjpeg.so.62 and XFCE seems to fall for it. This will keep me running until 7.0 hits the shelves.

I have run into this problem as well, but the solution is not totally clear to me. I should reinstall the old libjpeg rpm, right? And then maek a symlink. I am not clear enough on doing this yet. I can read the command for doing this, but i am not sure which one comes first and which last in the command. Could someone give me the comand, and tell me why it works as it should? My problem is kfm and a few other programs failing with the message, wrong library, caller expected 6.t and found 6.2, as best I remember it. -- Bob Rea Freedom is only privilege extended unless enjoyed by one and all --Billy Bragg rear@sirius.com rrea@askjeeves.com http://www.sirius.com/~rear -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/support/faq
I went into yast and marked libjpeg for removel, then chose Install and it reinstalled the old package. Don't know if that is the right way but it worked. Then, as root, switch to /usr/lib then do ln -s libjpeg.so.6.0.1 libjpeg.so.62 That made everything work here. I even updated XFCE to the latest 3.5 version and it runs great.
