Subject: [gentoo-user] trouble with libxcb (and others)
Date: Tue, 26 Apr 2011 18:12:46
Message-Id: yu9oc3slw7d.fsf@nyu.edu
1 Starting last night several builds and programs are crashing due to
2 problems in libxcb and others.
3
4 My system is ~amd64.
5
6 For example evolution fails to start and says
7
8 gottlieb@ajglap ~ $ evolution
9 evolution: error while loading shared libraries: libxcb-aux.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
10 gottlieb@ajglap ~ $
11
12 There is no libxcb-aux now on my system nor is there an libxcb-atom,
13 which revdep rebuild mentioned.
14
15 openoffice (picked up by revdep-rebuild) fails to build saying
16
17 checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config
18 checking for libwpd-0.8 ... Package libwpd-0.8 was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libwpd-0.8.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package 'libwpd-0.8' found
19 configure: error: Library requirements (libwpd-0.8 ) not met; consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if your libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find them.
20
21 I looked (using locate) and I have libwpd-0.9.1 now. Should I downgrade
22 to lib0.8.14?
23
24 Another problem, perhaps not related, but occurring at the same time is
25 that xlsclients-1.1.1 (also picked up by revdep-rebuild) fails to
26 build with
27 >>> Source configured.
28 >>> Compiling source in /var/tmp/portage/x11-apps/xlsclients-1.1.1/work/xlsclients-1.1.1 ...
29 >>> Working in BUILD_DIR: "/var/tmp/portage/x11-apps/xlsclients-1.1.1/work/xlsclients-1.1.1_build"
30 make --jobs --load-average=5
31 make all-am
32 make[1]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/x11-apps/xlsclients-1.1.1/work/xlsclients-1.1.1_build'

38
39 Something must have gone quite wrong in my last update world.
40
41 Advice would be appreciated.

43 thanks,
