librsvg can't be upgraded

Post by juliusse »

Hi,
Doing the update/upgrade today, I've noticed that librsvg has been excluded.
Trying to upgrade it with

Code: Select all

sudo slapt-get -i librsvg
It appears that it cannot be upgraded because of a missing dependency, librsvg-2.48.8

The slackware changelog talk about librsvg-2.50
If you have time to drop an eye in this.

Have a nice day

Julien

Thanks.
It is really strange librsvg-2.48.8-upgraded was not removed from system while librsvg-2.50 was installed. I removed it and recreated the dep file.
Try again after a sudo slapt-get -u

Hi, the fact is that librsvg 2.50 was not installed, the package was simply excluded from the upgrade due to the missing dependency.
(For info this have occurred on 3 different machines, 2 openbox and 1 KDE).
I will try tomorrow and keep you informed.

I was talking for my system which is the first that be upgrade. Of course librsvg-2.50 cannot be installed in yours or other systems :-)
Problems always first happen to my original slackel system used for developing.
Then i upload whatever needed on repository.

I noticed the same "problem" a few days ago, librsvg was excluded for some reason. I assumed it was a matter of repository synchronization, and let it go for a while, planning to report it if the problem persist. But it didn't last long. :D

The problem happened to my system were new librsvg installed, created the dep file and i did not understand that for some reason old version was not uninstalled and also added as a dep to new dep file.
So, every problem users notice have to report it immediately. :-)
