Hi Keith,
sorry, maybe your mail was not delivered or went unnoticed (and then forgotten...). I looked that up on the ML archive
and I don't recall reading the original mail.

Can you provide some more info, for example are you able to run the script, capture the output and attach it as a
file? I will try to help you, although you will probably need to bear with me for a while since I am under an extra
heavy workload schedule and somedays I don't even time to read my emails :-(
Also, where is the r14-xdg-update-validation-test9.txt coming from? I did a quick search in the tde repo and in my
user folder and this file did not come up.

Cheers
Michele

Re: previous email

Such is life in the fast lane... <grin>

I think all of the output of the script (error messages) is sent to this file:

/var/tmp/tdecache-$USER/r14-xdg-update-validation-test9.txt

There are three dialog boxes that sequentially popup with three different messages. Because they are hard wired to prohibit copy operations (given where they appear in the boot sequence copy might not work anyway) I would have to write them out from reading the screen. I can do that if you need it. Basically they say; the update did not work, contact the nearest administrator, and where to find the above mentioned error file.

The errors were all in updating *.desktop files--since I don't use those desktop files I don't care. What I do care about is having to click on three different itty bitty buttons that appear in three different locations on the screen, one after another, with my shaky 71 year old hands... If it keeps up much longer I am going to turn into a grumpy old man... <grin>

If I just knew where the script was, I could fix the popup dialog problem. It is possible that just creating empty *.desktop files could solve the update problem, but the script does not tell where it expects to find the files--so I don't know where to put them. My first post has lots of details about the *.desktop files that failed.

I attached the daily error message file, mentioned above.

Thanks

Keith
