Description Barry Jackson 2014-12-18 13:10:03 CET
Description of problem:
After clean vm install from mga5b2 live kde dvd I ran urpme --auto-orphans which removed 40 packages, with no apparent ill-effects, testing FF, LibreOffice, Dolphin.
I did not check mcc at this point.
I then updated from current repos and then tried to use rpmdrake. It opens to a black screen.
Running in a terminal:

[baz@localhost ~]$ mcc
"/usr/sbin/drakmenustyle" is not executable [Menus] at /usr/libexec/drakconf line 831.
"/usr/sbin/drakbackup" is not executable [Backups] at /usr/libexec/drakconf line 831.
"/usr/sbin/tomoyo-gui" is not executable [Tomoyo Policy] at /usr/libexec/drakconf line 831.
Subroutine Gtk3::main redefined at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.20.1/Gtk3.pm line 296.
getting exclusive lock on urpmi

I will re-test later without running auto-orphans.

Black screen is unrelated to auto-orphans or update.

In clean VM install from live DVD without update rpmdrake has black screen.

Not sure if it is related, but I have always got DrakConf & rpmdrake black and mostly unusable screen after Mageia Cauldron minimal install with X. Workaround is to install oxygen-gtk3...

Not helping here. I have it installed and still get the black screen when launched via mcc. Works fine if I launch rpmdrake from the command line.

Since no one else complained about it, I assumed it was my fault for running with vendor files instead of Mageia VirtualBox packages in a guest. No problems running in the host.

Package oxygen-gtk3-1.4.1-2.mga5.x86_64 is already installed in my VM and this persists.
