I'll walk you through this the long way round: |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
This is the clue: "libFLAC.so.7: cannot open shared object file: No such |
| 15 |
file" |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
I also have no such file as libFLAC.so.7, but locate libFLAC.so found |
| 18 |
libFLAC.so.8, and 'equery belongs' tells me it belongs to |
| 19 |
media-libs/flac. 'genlop -t' declares this package was upgraded on my |
| 20 |
box from 1.1.2-r8 to 1.1.4 on 17 July. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
So obviously playsound was built against the old version, and |
| 23 |
revdep-rebuild can't find the old one so doesn't know what to do about |
| 24 |
it. And wisely does nothing about it... |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
emerge flac |
| 27 |
revdep-rebuild -X |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
will see you right. |
