Subject: [gentoo-user] Problems upgrading X

1 Hello,
2 I don't know if this was asked previously or someone had the
3 same problem I'm about to talk about. If that is the case, please
4 redirect me to some place where I can find the answer.
5
6 I tried to upgrade to modular X religiously following the "Migrating to
7 Modular X HOWTO". I removed the old X and installed the new one.
8 Everything was fine until I rebooted and tried to open my favourite
9 terminal (uxterm), but it wouldn't. It gave the following error:
10
11 "xterm: error while loading shared libraries: libXaw.so.8: cannot open
12 shared object file: No such file or directory"
13
14 That's when I recalled I had to do a revdep-rebuild before complaining
15 :), but it failed while doing a certain emerge (last lines):
16
17 In file included from main.c:21:
18 menu.h:28:23: error: menu-tree.h: No such file or directory
19 make[3]: *** [main.o] Error 1
20 make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
21 make[3]: Leaving directory
22 `/var/tmp/portage/gnome-panel-2.10.2/work/gnome-panel-2.10.2/gnome-panel'
23 make[2]: *** [all] Error 2
24 make[2]: Leaving directory
25 `/var/tmp/portage/gnome-panel-2.10.2/work/gnome-panel-2.10.2/gnome-panel'
26 make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
27 make[1]: Leaving directory
28 `/var/tmp/portage/gnome-panel-2.10.2/work/gnome-panel-2.10.2'
29 make: *** [all] Error 2
30
31 !!! ERROR: gnome-base/gnome-panel-2.10.2 failed.
32 Call stack:
33 ebuild.sh, line 1539: Called dyn_compile
34 ebuild.sh, line 939: Called src_compile
35 gnome-panel-2.10.2.ebuild, line 50: Called die
36
37 Thus, it wasn't able to continue with the next emerges. The questions
38 are: First, how can I fix this? Second, does all this have something to
39 do with my not being able to run uxterm?
40
41 Last, but not least, scrolling down in firefox works abnormally slow for
42 some reason. Does this -again- have something to do with all the other
43 problems?
44
45 Thanks in advance.
