[opensuse] GNOME:Stable:3.4 on openSUSE 12.2
For a while the evolution app in openSUSE 12.1 has been failing. I have used other readers while waiting for a fix. I decided that perhaps a better solution was to add GNOME:/STABLE:/3.4/ and see what that evolution does. Perhaps not one of my better solutions. Aside from evolution still not starting (for apparently different reasons), things like ConsoleKit are now failing. I get a popup message when logging in to KDE about this. So, networking and other things are now broken. I see that a common complaint is that there are undefined symbols. For example, one of the libraries that was updated is: /usr/lib/libpolkit-gobject-1.so.0 and it complains that g_mutex_lock is not defined. This file comes from libpolkit0, which was built July 2. So I would think some other person would have experienced any obvious problem. Other libs make other complaints. But the common thing is that the undefined functions all start with 'g_'. So I am guessing some GNOME library did not get updated. There were no errors when I did the update. So whatever was installed was considered consistent by zypper. Perhaps there is a missing dependency. I also have GNOME:Apps enabled. My KDE is from KDE:Release:48. Perhaps there is some dependency interaction? I do not have any Factory repos. Anyone else been there done that? Roger Oberholtzer OPQ Systems / Ramböll RST Ramböll Sverige AB Kapellgränd 7 P.O.

The symbol comes from glib2. In 12.1 you have glib 2.30, in STABLE:/3.4 there is 2.32 and it appears to be needed Specifically libglib-2_0-0-2.32 And if you update glib you most likely have to update gtk too. I'm surprised this wasn't dealt with automatically by dependencies. Did you force the installation somehow? If not, it's a definite bug Anders -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

This was the issue. I had to update it by hand. Seems there was an issue with gio-branding. If I elected to ignore that, then glib and a few others got installed. Things seem to be better. It is odd that the rest installed without the required glib version. I only did a 'zypper up'. Nothing was forced or ignored. Thanks for the help. I am back on line. -- Roger -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
