Hmm, I thought the new way (4.3.0) was the correct way with all the libs being compiled with -fPIC, or is there something more to it? I seem to recall someone mentioning that upstream decided to finally use -fPIC on all libraries due to that even i386 couldn't prelink the libs if they weren't -fPIC (Seems upstream only cares about i386). While 4.2.1 is still in sid KDE has to be compiled against xlibs-pic so that it works on all archs. Thanks, Chris -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
