Hello all,

My machine recently have Gnome SlackBuild upgraded to version 3.2. Before, it had GSB 2.x, over a Slackware 13.37 baseline.

When I try to log in selecting GNOME, I got an error which could be traced to seahorse-agent. The .xsession-error shows a broken dependency related to that executable.

Now, my surprise is to check seahorse-agent dependencies:

I double-checked the MANIFEST.bz2 file from Slackware 13.37 and from GSB 3.2 and found nothing like libcryptui.so. I haven't tried to search for libnotify.so, which is also missing. My question is if someone has seen this sort of thing before, and how to proceed? Of course I could check slackbuilds.org and other resources, but IMHO things are not supposed to work this way.

Thanks,

Luiz Ramos

libnotify is included as a default package in Slackware

Oops!

Some hours ago I realized that seahorse-agent could be some kind of "legacy" from older installations. And bingo, it was! There were a package, seahorse-agent, which is related to GSB 2.x and not to GSB 3.x, and was not removed from the machine.

The reason for not having it removed could be investigated as well - I ran slapt-get -c <conffile> --remove-obsolete --upgrade for upgrading GSB, which is supposed to remove older packages - but for now I'm satisfied that the problem reported in this thread is not happening anymore.

To be fair, I still can't see GNOME running, but it seems there is some other easy trick to be found.

For willysr, my sincere thanks for your reply. I suppose the dependency problem related to libnotify.so could be about their versions, but as seahorse-agent is not here anymore, this question has gone as well.

I'll turn this thread into "solved" very soon, I hope.

Thanks,

Luiz Ramos
