I'd just completely remove KDE and reinstall it!
|
|

To check your kde version:
Code:
%pkg_info | grep kde Code:
#pkg_delete kde_version Code:
#cd /usr/ports/x11/kde3 && make deinstall clean

7.0 Install problems
I tried doing a base install of FreeBSD 7.0 onto a machine that had been running 6.0.
It got most of the way through the install and then it failed on a dependency of libgl7.0. The basic OS excluding X seems to have installed okay. It's pretty disappointing that in 2008 a normal install onto known working and relatively modern hardware fails to successfully install the window manager. Using sysinstall to try to install Xorg (after the fact) also fails with odd dependency issues (dependent package fails to install), with the cryptic "check debug screen," which I can't since I'm at work and alt F2 only works on the system console. I've been using FreeBSD for 10 years, and it really annoys me when the basic installation, including X11 & KDE doesn't work. I can deal with the ugly installer, but it needs to work. The Linux camp seems have pretty decisevely solved the install process, FreeBSD really needs to work on it. I guess I'll give FreeBSD 6.3 a try and see if it installs. Is anyone else having issues installing Xorg and/or KDE? Stephen |

I did remove KDE with pkg_deinstall -rv /var/db/pkg/kde*
Install seemed to go quite ok until the problem i posted on another topic with same issue. http://www.daemonforums.org/showthread.php?t=257 |

You will need to recompile *all* ports, not just KDE, you can use portupgrade:
# portupgrade -af

An OS installer should install the OS, configure it enough to get it to boot, and nothing more, IMO. |

hmm, then why is KDE linked against FreeBSD 6 libs...
Can you post the ouput from: # ldconfig -r | grep stdc Also, did you run # make delete-old delete-old-libs in /usr/src after upgrading?You can also try installing misc/compat6x as a quick fix, which may or may not work, in any case the problem will remain (and you will run into problems later).

bsdkone# ldconfig -r | grep stdc
87:-lstdc++.6 => /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6 767:-lstdc++.4 => /usr/local/lib/compat/libstdc++.so.4 794:-lstdc++.3 => /usr/local/lib/compat/libstdc++.so.3 bsdkone# And nope did not run make delete old in /usr/src (just followed the so easy rules of upgrading from 6.3 to 7.0) :-) EDIT: Just in case, the problem is now the Mutex unlock while compiling KDE as i linked to another topic with same problem above.

Now i have done make delete-old delete-old-libs in /usr/src
Removed /usr/ports and fetch/extract it again etc etc. Mutex ulnock is still here Code:
/usr/local/bin/moc kdcopview.h -o kdcopview.moc rm -f kdcopview.cpp echo '#include <kdialog.h>' > kdcopview.cpp echo '#include <klocale.h>' >> kdcopview.cpp /usr/local/bin/uic -L /usr/local/lib/kde3/plugins/designer -nounload -tr tr2i18n -i kdcopview.h ./kdcopview.ui > kdcopview.cpp.temp ; ret=$?; \ /usr/local/bin/perl -pe "s,tr2i18n( \"\" ),QString::null,g" kdcopview.cpp.temp | /usr/local/bin/perl -pe "s,tr2i18n( \"\"\, \"\" ),QString::null,g" | /usr/local/bin/perl -pe "s,image([0-9][0-9]*)_data,img\$1_kdcopview,g" | /usr/local/bin/perl -pe "s,: QWizard\(,: KWizard(,g" >> kdcopview.cpp ;\ rm -f kdcopview.cpp.temp ;\ if test "$ret" = 0; then echo '#include "kdcopview.moc"' >> kdcopview.cpp; else rm -f kdcopview.cpp ; exit $ret ; fi Mutex unlock failure: Operation not permitted |

freebsd-update.sh :-)
http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/howto-f...rver-upgrades/ I have started from scratch now with fresh 7.0 install on another partition tho and everything should work. |
|

upgrades don't work in most cases. I have learned my lesson in the past. Personally i always do a virgin install and compile everything from source when a new release is out and go on from there. It is a time consuming method but less troublesome...
Good luck |
