[Dean@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (Dean Michael Dorman)]

I have been having a heck of a time upgrading from the gtk+ and glib that
comes with suse 5.3 to the newest versions.  I need to so that I can compile
*most* of the new gtk based apps.  I can compile and install but every
compilation fails the gtk app test.  I guess that means that old libs are
laying around and being found instead of the new one.  I tried rpm -e to get
rid of the packages to no avail.  How in the world can I cleanly upgrade? I
think it is nice that suse supports rpm but if it doesn't support the same
directory structure as RH then you end up getting bit on some rpm
installs....(my 2 cents).
