Hi,
Anyone tried to build mpm on OpenSuse 11?
First I had problems with pthreads library, then It somehow fixed but
during "make" I still got several errors - it looks like bad sources.
Any experiences,remarks from you?

No luck here as well. I asked on the MiKTeX mailing list, this is the
answer I got:
news://news.gmane.org:119/22af238a0807031529w22f...@mail.gmail.com

I gave up and am doing it by hand again, until Christian Schenk deems it
necessary to work on MPM again. Maybe it will help if you do a MicroPledge.

Which is a duplicate of http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=231663
and contains a proper patch. (The other one is the wrong way round.)

It worked for me.

As soon as I get home I will try to workaround this
and let you know if it helped.

The patch didnt work.
compilation passed but in the result when using initexmf -U or any
other command I got:

initexmf: error while loading shared libraries: libMiKTeX207-
packagemanager.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or
directory

Hello,

This is probably a new problem. Either that library is not properly
installed, or you have not done the steps necessary to make a new
shared libraries available. Some of the possible actual problems are
cured by a reboot, to present something simple to try. Otherwise
Everything exact knowledge what files have been installed where is
required. It is a lot too much to write about all cases here, but you
might find the answers in the archives of other newsgroups dedicated to
your OS.

I had the same problems as you described, on OpenSuse 11, and a
restart did work in my case.

or performed restart and then building miktex-tools?

My workflow was: Download MikTex Tools -> patch -> build -> Restart ->
initexmf

With a lot of non-working rebuilding/initexmf'ing between build en
Restart of course.

After installing new shared libraries, you need to run (as root) ldconfig
to update symbolic links and the cache. You may also need to add the
library directory to /etc/ld.so.conf. Rebooting may cause the cache to be
rebuilt, but is overkill.
