The recent SUSE Security Announcement: kdelibs (SuSE-SA:2004:014) has only an update for version kdelibs3-3.0.5-54. and not the version kdelibs3-3.0.3-68 that was initially installed under SUSE 8.1.
If the current patch update is attempted on SUSE 8.1, the following message is displayed: error: failed dependencies: libstdc++.so.5(GLIBCPP_3.2.2) is needed by kdelibs3-3.0.5-54 [...] I could do an install/upgrade using the nodeps option, however I would be fearful that I would break something. How can I avoid the above problems and install a fix for kdelibs under SUSE 8.1 that has currently kdelibs3-3.0.3-68 installed?
Download the source RPM and compile it: rpm --rebuild kdelibs*.src.rpm And please send a bugreport to http://www.suse.de/feedback so that SuSE can fix the problem. According to your problem description, it seems that they have compiled it with a wrong version of libstdc++ installed. Gruß Christian Boltz -- Linux - Life is too short for reboots
