Well, how come when I uninstall all the Ximian stuff and remove the Gnome directories and shared files..Gnome software will still puke on itself and not give a valid reason like " error in directory <blah> with config <blah>."
This is the one thing about PC's that make this crap such a pain. One of things I wish developers would do is make error messages that one can understand.
I got rid of Ximian completely and installed the SuSE RPM's and deleted all the config files. I let it restart itself and I get the same error. This is just goofy.
I'm not saying Ximian is great, I gave up on that POC when I got circular, unresolvable (short of manually tampering with the rpm db) dependencies. And I also have no clue as to what your problem is, I don't use gnome myself. KDE (or afterstep, if I'm on an older comp) is better AFAIAC. I was just replying to dep and his conspiracy theories. I don't think that the problems you're seeing are in any way connected with any forking of the linux distributions. You're seeing a bug, not the death of linux. That's all I meant :) //Anders -- I swear I do declare - how did you get that there?
