This rpm puts files in funny placesl kdevelop can't find some of its files such as Welcome/index.html and its tips database. I thought for a while I must have downloaded an rpm for some other distribution. I can see that RHS has released two RPMs with the same name: [summer@possum data]$ ftpi kdevelop-1.0beta2-1.i386.rpm kdevelop-1.0beta2-1.i386.rpm ftp://ftp.labs.redhat.com/rawhide/powertool s/i386/kdevelop-1.0beta2-1.i386.rpm 2587456 0 Sep 10 10:51 kdevelop-1.0beta2-1.i386.rpm ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/powertools/ 6.1/i386/kdevelop-1.0beta2-1.i386.rpm 2587704 0 Sep 23 12:57 kdevelop-1.0beta2-1.i386.rpm ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/distributio ns/redhat/powertools/6.1/i386/kdevelop-1.0beta2-1.i386.rpm 2587704 0 Sep 23 16:57 [summer@possum data]$ ls `rsh emu locate kdevelop-1.0beta2-1.i386.rpm | grep rpm` -rw-rw-r-- 1 summer 2587704 Oct 24 12:19 /u02/summer/incoming/kdevelop -1.0beta2-1.i386.rpm [summer@possum data]$ As you can see I have the one from powertools but not rawhide.
