(note: I did rpm -e --nodeps > package to remove the 32 bit ones) bad idea (nodeps)... you should probably reinstall them and then either leave them, or remove whatever depends on them. Otherwise chances are whatever depends on them will be broken on your system. It's not related to your current problem, but maybe to one of your next posts to the list ;-) > I then did: > bonobo-slay > > Can not open directory /usr/lib/bonobo/servers > No such file or directory > > Does it still think its 32 bit based on the directory given? > What might the next step be? /usr/bin/bonobo-slay is a perl script, clearly buggy wrt 64-bit (that path is hard-coded). I have no idea what it does, bonobo is a monkey to me, but you could try fixing that script. You might also consider filing a bug somewhere. Whether fixing the script would solve your problem is another question... But it may be worth a try.
