The current version of KDE for SUSE 10.1 that is available for upgrade via smart is KDE 3.5.5. This version is much newer than the version of KDE that was provided on 10.1 DVD - KDE 3.5.1a. 10.1 (re-mastered, but I believe it was the same for the original 10.1 on the boxed DVD) includes libexpat.so.1.5.? as part of the widely used expat package, and has links to it, pretending to be libexpat.so.1. The links appear to satisfy other installed packages/applications that need the older version. Smart says it can't install 3.5.5 because "... no package provides libexpat.so.1" One does not wish to replace the existing libexpat.so.1.5 with an earlier version and break several dozen installed programs. But smart doesn't seem to be fooled by the links that are good enough for the programs that were installed with the 10.1 (re-mastered) installation. So, what does one do now? How to satisfy the KDE 3.5.5 packager's requirement for an earlier library than the installed one? Or how to fool smart into seeing and accepting a link as the real thing? I did perform an rpm database rebuild. No change. Thank you.
