Hi Lists, I have a situation where I somehow have both KDE 2.2.1 and KDE 2.2.2 run ning on my box. I am using SuSE 7.3 Pro and have updated KDE only using SuSE's rpms. I am having trouble with Kapital installing due apparently to being confused about the two KDE's. What is the safest way, without reinstalling SuSE, to remove and reinstall KDE and bring it back to 2.2.2, without losing all of my links to apps and ending up with a hosed box? I am willing to just back up everything and reinstall if that is necessary. I need to clean up this as it is my production box. I think my troubles started when KDE hung and locked up whiledoing a clean install of SuSE 7.3 Pro. If there is a 7.4 soon, maybe I'll just wait. Any help appreciated. The box is very usable for everything except Kapital. TIA, Keith B.
Are you familiar with the rpm-command? Try rpm -e --allmatches <the packages you want to uninstall> This will uninstall all versions of the packages. Then try rpm -Uvh <the packages you want to install> or simply just yast --mask install for uninstallation and reinstallation. Good luck torsdagen den 7 februari 2002 12.11 skrev du:
