Here is a problem I have been experiencing for many weeks (see below),
waiting for perhaps a bug fix or newer version of one of the update
applications. I have tried to resolve this with apt-get, yum, and smart
-- none have worked for me. I can't see why the new packages require
python 2.3 when I have python 2.4 installed -- is there no backward
compatibility built into python24?
I am also getting errors when trying to update freetype: it indicates
that while a newer version is available, it conflicts with the old
version and so any newer applications which need freetype = (something I
can't get) the update/install will fail for those as well. Is there any
way to force the new freetype, ignoring conflicts, or is that just a bad
idea? Anyway, here's the yumex error related to freetype:
/nTransaction Check Error: file /usr/lib/libttf.so.2.3.0 from install
of freetype-2.1.9-4.el4 conflicts with file from package
libttf2-2.1.9-1_4.el4.at
file /usr/lib/libfreetype.so.6.3.7 from install of
freetype-2.1.9-4.el4 conflicts with file from package
libfreetype6-2.1.9-1_4.el4.at
(Also note the error in the text message that yumex provides: there
should not be a "/n" in the beginning, where it appears that the author
intended to tell some C compiler to begin a new line, but somehow was
taken as actual text. This appears on every debug message I get from
yumex, which is no big deal but would be nicer without it).
Thanks!
