Hey all, |

So far, I've noticed on all my Solaris prefixes that the upgrade of zlib |
| 4 |
breaks your system, as in: Python doesn't work any more due to a missing |
| 5 |
$EPREFIX/lib/libz.so. |
| 6 |
This is caused by a missing soname in libz-1.2.3 and below on Solaris. |
| 7 |
The simplest way to get your system going again is to create a symlink |
| 8 |
for the missing libz.so: |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
% cd $EPREFIX/lib |
| 11 |
% ln -s libz.so.1.2.4 libz.so |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
Since this is only a workaround, you best recompile all applications |
| 14 |
that use libz (a lot :(). Regardless of whether you feel like doing |
| 15 |
that or not, I strongly advise you to fix your python right away, by |
| 16 |
simply reemerging it: |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
% emerge -1 python:2.6 |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
After this you can remove the symlink again, and re-emerge applications |
| 21 |
as you find them broken. |
