I updated to net-analyzer/wireshark-1.11.0 on a few different systems and they all ended with old libraries linked. Re-emerging it solved the problem. ... <<< dir /usr/share/doc/wireshark-1.10.2 <<< dir /usr/lib/wireshark/plugins/1.10.2 >>> Regenerating /etc/ld.so.cache... >>> Original instance of package unmerged safely. * NOTE: To run wireshark as normal user you have to add yourself to * the wireshark group.

Created attachment 361796 [details, diff] wireshark-1.11.0-oldlibs.patch Could you please test this patch: 1a) Either wait an hour or so and re-sync the portage tree (I added epatch_user to the ebuilds) and save this patch in </etc/portage/patches/net-analyzer/wireshark-1.11.0>. 1b) Apply the attached patch yourself in the ebuild. 2) Downgrade to net-analyzer/wireshark-1.10.2 3) Again upgrade to net-analyzer/wireshark-1.11.0
Hmm, I just tried, saw the patch being applied in epatch_user, but got the same final result (i.e. linked to the old libraries it seems)... or ... Actually looking at that output, I start wondering if it is not a bug in portage. How can I make sure that those libraries are from the old package? Because: ... !!! existing preserved libs: >>> package: net-analyzer/wireshark-1.11.0 * - /usr/lib64/libwsutil.so.3 * - /usr/lib64/libwsutil.so.3.0.0 * - /usr/lib64/libwiretap.so.3 * - /usr/lib64/libwiretap.so.3.0.2 * used by /usr/lib64/libwireshark.so.0.0.0 (net-analyzer/wireshark-1.11.0) Use emerge @preserved-rebuild to rebuild packages using these libraries $ equery b /usr/lib64/libwsutil.so.3.0.0 * Searching for /usr/lib64/libwsutil.so.3.0.0 ... net-analyzer/wireshark-1.11.0 (/usr/lib64/libwsutil.so.3.0.0) $ equery b /usr/lib64/libwiretap.so.3.0.2 * Searching for /usr/lib64/libwiretap.so.3.0.2 ... net-analyzer/wireshark-1.11.0 (/usr/lib64/libwiretap.so.3.0.2) $ equery k wireshark * Checking net-analyzer/wireshark-1.11.0 ... 1006 out of 1006 files passed So it seems like portage is mistakingly thinking those are preserved libraries?

Sorry, it was me being sloppy/tired :-| I emerged it a few times to realize I had the patch in the wrong directory and it wasn't applied. I moved it and repeated the test 1.10.2 -> 1.11.0 and all is fine now. Not sure if this is to go upstream or not, but may be it is not Gentoo specific. Thanks for the quick fix!
