Learned in the past weeks that it is necessary to run SuSEconfig after using Smart. During my DOS days I would have made a batfile where Smart would be followed by SuSEconfig. Could that be done easily in Suse 10.1?
What wonders me is the instruction in one of the email's to use "ldconfig && SuSEconfig" From the short timespan I used Red Hat (RH 5.2) I remember ldconfig but since my happy Suse years I can't remember using ldconfig. What is the background of the combined instruction? Ldconfig does not do anything visual on my system. SuSEconfig does ;).
Hi Constant, ldconfig is sort of 'masked' behind the GUI... it says something like "preparing linker cache"... but ldconfig and SuSEconfig are run every single time packages or updates are installed with YaST/YOU. regards, Carl
