Jeff/Moe had some problems with the missing libraries a while ago, and I didn't see any replies to it so here goes: For me this ment that no texts would be displayed during the installation so I used some time to investigate this problem, and found the following patch would fix the problem: --- anaconda-8.0/scripts/upd-instroot 2002-08-30 07:52:44.000000000 +0300 +++ anaconda-8.0-cardinal/scripts/upd-instroot 2002-11-01 00:32:13.000000000 +0200 @@ -738,6 +738,8 @@ REALPATH=`(cd $DESTGR; /bin/pwd | sed 's,/md1/,/,g')` runroot $COMPONENT --onlyone --arch $ARCH "LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/X11R6/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/sbin/chroot $REALPATH /usr/bin/pango-querymodules 2> $REALPATH/etc/pango/pango.modules" else + export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/X11R6/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH + export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6.2 /usr/sbin/chroot $DESTGR /usr/bin/pango-querymodules > $DESTGR/etc/pango/pango.modules fi rm -f $DESTGR/usr/bin/pango-querymodules @@ -749,6 +751,8 @@ REALPATH=`(cd $DESTGR; /bin/pwd | sed 's,/md1/,/,g')` runroot $COMPONENT --onlyone --arch $ARCH "LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/X11R6/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/sbin/chroot $REALPATH /usr/bin/gtk-query-immodules-2.0 2> $REALPATH/etc/gtk-2.0/gtk.immodules" else + export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/X11R6/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH + export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/X11R6/lib/libXi.so.6.0 /usr/sbin/chroot $DESTGR /usr/bin/gtk-query-immodules-2.0 > $DESTGR/etc/gtk-2.0/gtk.immodules fi rm -f $DESTGR/usr/bin/gtk-query-immodules-2.0 The LD_LIBRARY_PATH is not actually needed, but a extra hit never hurts :) I would guess that people at Red Hat have used remote hosts to succesfully build the packages (with the help of the runroot-script). Urgh, need sleep.
