download manager "Kget" not working after i removed some pkgs
Hello all,
from the Package manager (KPackage) i was removing some packages which i thought of useless for me. But now when i'm starting the Kget.....its generating the following error Quote:
how am i suppose to know that which package it requires ??? otherwise i could post the list of packages i removed. regards |
Try
Code:
$ ldd $(which kget) You should be able to figure out what packages you need to reinstall. |

the name is KGet.....but i was trying to find its name there in package manager ( i hope i'm supposed to use that name as the filename in "ldd" command )......but didn't found any thing like download manager.... So what should i do now ? regards |
Sorry for being vague. (I gotta learn to be more specific).
NOTE: I'm just guessing on a solution but I'm 99% sure this will help you get it working again. Maybe, possibly, I don't know. :) Run the ldd command on the actual executable file your having problems with, e.g.: Code:
ldd /opt/kde/bin/kget That file lists every thing slackware installs by directory path and package name. ). It'll spit something like this out: Code:
ldd /usr/bin/amixer If a library is missing it'll say so. Look for a library package name similar to what might be listed as missing. If you don't see something, grep for the actual library name in that MANIFEST.bz2 file: Code:
bunzip MANIFEST.bz2 Code:
installpkg packagename Okay, I've erred on the side of detail this time; hope I've not been too much of a Pedantic Ass(TM). |
My kget working fine.
Here's my output: Code:
ldd /opt/kde/bin/kget This is from Slackware 10.2 fresh install |
Ahh the "beauty" of "simplicity" at it's finest! You have everything that the binary kget depends on installed.
You're going to want to install all of the kde packages(except i18n) and then see if it will run. If it still doesn't run, then i would just install everything that you uninstalled, and then uninstall the packages one at a time and test kget after every uninstall to see which package you need. |
I didn't really look at them...Heck of alot of 'em.
The only thing I've done is installed a wireless pcmcia card and recompiled a few times |
This is the situation that I wish Pat would at least list the things a particular package requires to run.
I don't care about an automated dependency check but a note in the package.txt file listing dependent packages would be nice. |
