Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: kde-window-manager
Following upgrade from interpid to jaunty kwin would not run because
/usr/lib/kde4/kwin3_oxygen.so could not be loaded. I investigated and
found that kwin-kde4 package was installed. I notice that kwin-kde4 and
both supply this library ... my kwin-kde4 was obviously outdated
(version 4:4.0.3-0ubuntu2) so I purged it and reinstalled kde-window-
manager, this resolved issue.
I have 3 lines in /etc/apt/sources.list they are as follows:
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jaunty main restricted multiverse universe
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jaunty-security main restricted multiverse universe
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jaunty-updates main restricted multiverse universe
I upgrade with "apt-get dist-upgrade". My system has been upgraded
through several ubuntu releases and I have few (in fact I think no) non-
ubuntu packges installed.
Further my system crashed (power failure) during upgrade so I'm not sure
if that may have impacted ... still though I did have "apt-get dist-
upgrade" reporting cleanly and all packages configured (dpkg --configure
-a) while this issue was occurring.
So ... I'm not sure why kwin-kde4 was not automatically removed (I had
also done several "apt-get autoremove" to get rid of non-required
items).
