Well, you might be able to use the parted package, then you'll just have to build the nparted front end.

I vaguely remember the discussion. My guess is that it is a fluke with the GUI package management tool. 'up2date -u krb5', should have been able to work out the deps and install the needed package. > [root@localhost root]# up2date -u gcc [snip] > Installing > 1:gcc > 2:glibc-devel > 3.glibc-kernheader > 4.binutils [snip] > Unless I'm missing something, we appear error free do we not? Your > comments, observations at this point? Yes, looks like you now have the basic development packages installed. You may find you need a few more tools before many things will build properly. Off the top of my head: $ whichcd -v 8.0 flex bison glib- cpp gtk+-dev XFree86-dev ncurses-dev Searching for flex... CD-1:flex-2.5.4a-26.i386.rpm Searching for bison... CD-1:bison-1.35-4.i386.rpm Searching for glib-... CD-1:glib-1.2.10-8.i386.rpm CD-2:glib-devel-1.2.10-8.i386.rpm Searching for cpp... CD-1:cpp-3.2-7.i386.rpm Searching for gtk+-dev...

CD-1:ncurses-devel-5.2-28.i386.rpm Some may already be installed, or depending on what programs your going to try to build, you may not need all of them. Again, up2date is your friend if you run into a dependency nightmare. If the build process for your apps fails, post the output, and we'll see if we can't figure out what's missing. - -- - -Michael pgp key: http://www.tuxfan.homeip.net:8080/gpgkey.txt Red Hat Linux 7.{2,3}|8.0 in 8M of RAM: http://www.rule-project.org/ - -- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE+F7wjn/07WoAb/SsRAh5TAJ9ge4Xg3+DJ7+5xxJxIvKD2rICK+QCgnUYM 4b8DeK9jp6AUg9QvqGJVI1Y= =mstE -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
