Doesn't look promising. I just tried it, and I get this bug: |

Theoretically...maybe. There is a bit of an open debate right now on |
19 |
how binary compatible 3.4.x and 4.x are. |

You can certainly merge 3.4.6-r1, and use gcc-config to select that as |
22 |
your compiler for building klibido. And I am reasonably sure it will |
23 |
_compile_. |
24 |
|
25 |
But it is maybe a bit dangerous, as you have kdelibs built with 4.1, |
26 |
so linked against that version of libstdc++.so. When you build |
27 |
klibido with 3.4.x, it will get linked with that version of |
28 |
libstdc++.so. Since the .so version is the same, the system should |
29 |
load one and only one copy of libstdc++.so (whichever one shows up |
30 |
first in ldconfig). And it should work...*in theory*. However there |
31 |
have been some issues posted with running such mixed-environment |
32 |
programs, so it seems not so simple. |
33 |
|
34 |
I would suggest to either use 3.4.x and rebuild all C++ programs with |
35 |
that (using revdep-rebuild --library=libstdc++.so.6), or wait for the |
36 |
above bug to get fixed. Rebuilding all C++ programs could include |
37 |
openoffice.org, mozilla, and other long-compiling packages... |

I haven't tried it, but maybe it will work with wine? If you decide |
44 |
to try wine, make sure you merge the latest 0.9.x version, not a |
45 |
-2005XXXX version. |
