seems to be necessary for this particular upgrade to kde-redhat (KDE to
3.5.1) as I was bit by the same thing. I guess if nothing else, it's a
good clue as to who is using the kde-redhat repo

I vaguely remember the command being

$kbuildsycoca
and not
$kbuildsyscoca

note     ^   shouldn't be there...Rex said the same to me so he
evidently has syscoca on the brain and not sycoca

;-)
