The following ERRATA for SL 30rolling i386 are now available from:
ftp://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/30rolling/i386/errata/SL/RPMS/
gtk2-2.2.4-15.SL.1.i386.rpm
gtk2-devel-2.2.4-15.SL.1.i386.rpm
librsvg2-2.2.3-6.SL.4.i386.rpm
librsvg2-devel-2.2.3-6.SL.4.i386.rpm
Because of the strangeness that has ensued with the interaction of the
newer gtk2 and librsvg2, the following errata had the following fixes
put in place.
gtk2
checks to see what arch you have, and if necessary, whether you have
the 64 bit or 32 bit version of gtk2 installed. It then makes a link to
/usr/bin/gdk-pixpuf-query-loaders from
/usr/bin/gdk-pixpuf-query-loaders(-32) or (-64), depending on the
situation, if a link is not already there.
librsvg2
checks to see what arch you have, and if necessary, whether you have
the 64 bit or 32 bit version of gtk2 installed. It then makes a link to
/usr/bin/gdk-pixpuf-query-loaders from
/usr/bin/gdk-pixpuf-query-loaders(-32) or (-64), depending on the
situation, if a link is not already there.
(We realize this might be a little overkill. These two rpm's tend to
not be updated alot. So we figured we'd put this fix in both of them,
so that if one of them was updated, the other would still pass on this fix.)
It now checks to see if /usr/bin/update-gdk-pixbuf-loaders is there
before running it's scripts, just incase it get's updated before the
gtk2 does.
For both rpm's we have modified the .rpmmacros so that they have the
proper arch. By doing this both gtk2 and librsvg2 will be pointing
their stuff at the proper i386-redhat-linux-gnu, instead of each
pointing to something different. (They are using two totally different
variables to point at the same directory, which caused some problems.)
Since we made this change in the .rpmmacros build file for the errata
area, this change will be continued with further errata.
If people could test these rpm's we would appreciate it. I have put
them through many tests of updates and installs and they all seems to
work ok.
If no problems are found, we will put them in the errata area next week.
