KDE Upgrade Problem

mageia 1: Latest update
1 installation transactions failed

There was a problem during the installation:

file /usr/share/locale/en_US/entry.desktop from install of kdelibs4-core-2:4.6.5-1.1.mga1.i586 conflicts with file from package kde-l10n-en_US-2:4.6.2-0.mga1.i586

Did you install from a pre release of Mageia 1? KDE 4.6.2-0 is earlier than the release of Mageia 1

kde-l10n-en_US-2:4.6.2-0.mga1.i586 is an empty package that requires kdelibs4-core You could try removing it doing the upgrade and then re adding it.

Code: Select all

rpm -e --nodeps kde-l10n-en_US-2:4.6.2-0.mga1.i586
urpmi --auto-update
urpmi kde-l10n-en_US

Thank you for the response. You are correct about using an earlier version I have never re installed mageia, just updated from the original alpha. I took care of this problem but what I don't understand is that the version of kde that was running was 4.6.3-0.mga1, why did rpmdrake dredge up 4.6.2? As a lazy user using auto update this is the first problem I have encountered.
