That's odd, did you (or tried) to install SELinux? SELinux is Secure Linux, a kernel add-on provided by the NSA (yeah, that's the National Securtiy Agency of the USA). You can try to find the selinux library (usually a file beginning with libselinux), and include the directory in which this file resides in the library path. > Suspiosions: > The problem is mostlikey with 'fedora core 2' Thinks so too. Of course Kile does not need SELinux (unless you want to write top secret LaTeX documents...). best, Jeroen

This would seem to be the core of the problem. NSA is using 'fedora core 2' as the base for their SE linux and as such there are a components that come with fedora. It is also worth noting that the 2.6.X kernel is also designed to suport SE linux.
The problem is dew to updateing an existing Redhat /Fedora version, when updating there seems to be issues with linking and coping all the source.
It would seem best not to update from an older version to 'fedora core 2', but to reinstall from scrach. This seem to solve this issue an a few others.
Its not long time I start to use this suse 9.1 and I found it very interesting, unfortunately, I have got a problem with the editor kile. when I launche first it starts seraching and then nothing happen, could any one help me, please. merci |
