Hello, all. I upgraded on of our Debian Squeeze
systems today from TDE
3.5.12 to 3.5.13.1 however I receive a could not start kdeinit error
message. I did search for the error and see a thread which says to
check the libqt3-mt library version but I believe I have the correct
one:
ii libqt3-mt 3:3.3.8d-1ubuntu0+ax1~squeeze
There were no errors I saw on the apt-get install the second time. I
did have a problem the first time. I ran apt-get dist-upgrade from
within TDE. Suddenly, my Windows Manager vanished. I let the upgrade
proceed but then it asked for input and I was unable to provide the
input so I exited the GUI and killed the apt-get process. A dpkg
--configure a seemed to complete the installation correctly.
Yes, qt version is correct. Try:
dpkg --configure -a
aptitude dist-upgrade

Thank you both, Slavek and Tim. I had tried re-running apt-get update
and then apt-get dist-upgrade but that did not help. I just followed
Slavek's advice and was surprised to see that packages were removed
rather than upgraded:
root@denise:~# dpkg --configure -a
root@denise:~# aptitude dist-upgrade
The following packages will be REMOVED:
gs{u} kdesdk-scripts-trinity{u} kpilot-trinity{u} libavahi-compat-libdnssd1{u}
libavahi-qt3-dev{u} libdbus-qt-1-1c2{u} libkjsembed1-trinity{u} libogg-dev-la{u}
libpisock9{u} libpoppler-qt2{u} libsensors3{u} libxxf86misc1{u}
However, it has not fixed the problem. The TDE splash screen appears
stuck on starting system services and, behind it, is an error message
about could not start kdeinit :( What next? Thanks - John
