I installed Colgate this weekend, and it went well. Almost everything
worked well, and I am very impressed with it. It's not nearly as buggy as
people seem to say. But when you upgrade sooo many packages, you can
expect some errors and incomaptibilities. Here are three of mine:
~~~~~~~~~~~
when i try and run tkman i get the follwoing error:
[root@getontheb bin]# tkman
can't read "0": no such variable
while executing
"exec /usr/bin/wish $0..."
(file "/usr/bin/tkman" line 4)
I tried taking out the $0 and also running tkman on a man page "tkman
bash" but neither worked. Does anyone have a fix for this?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
the new version of ppd, when installed, deleted my existing options,
ppp-on and ppp-off files, and only replaced the options file. This was
kind of a pain. There was an options.rpmsave, but no ppp-on and ppp-off. I
guess I should have not installed the new ppd, but I wanted to upgrade
everything.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Unfortunately, I mistakenly installed gpm on my system and I don't want
it. But when I
[root@getontheb bin]# rpm -e gpm-1.10-5
removing these packages would break dependencies:
libgpm.so.1 is needed by jed-0.97.14-2
libgpm.so.1 is needed by mc-3.2.10-1
Can I keep those libraries and kick the gpm?
thanks in advance
david
