Subject:   KDEInit could not launch 'kmail'
Message-ID:  <4124BAAE.6020308@gonwanda.com>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
I've installed KDE 3.23 on a machine running 5.21-release-p9 which has 
x116.7 from X.ORG installed.

I try to start kmail and get a message window of:
"KDEInit could not launch 'kmail'"

If I copy the command properties of the kmail icon and run it from the 
command line:

kmail -caption "%c" %i %m

I get the reply:

/libexec/ld-elf.so1: Shared object "libkhtml.so.5" not found

Ditto when trying to run "kedit"
from the command like I get:
/libexec/ld-elf.so1: Shared object "libkdeprint.so.5" not found

Everything on the machine has been installed from "ports".

I've tried to do portupgrades and pkgdb -uf and portsdb-Uu but apart 
from seeing that some packages are ignores, some are skipped and one 
fails I'm none the wiser.

I've reinstalled kde to see if I've managed to do some harm whilst using 
   pkgdb -F.  I "may" have wrongly answered some questions about "stale 
dependencies" when using it.

Help?

Thanks in anticipation.

Owen

P.S. I've searched the freebsd mail archives to no avail.
