Bug 166518 – net-libs/gnutls-1.4.4-r1 - broken libgnutls-extra.la (libopencdk.la)

• Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Jan 2007-02-12 16:14:42 UTC]

On my system, revdep-rebuild keeps on emerging net-libs/gnutls-1.4.4-r1 every time:

--
# revdep-rebuild -p
Configuring search environment for revdep-rebuild

Checking reverse dependencies...

Packages containing binaries and libraries broken by a package update
will be emerged.

Collecting system binaries and libraries... done.
  (/root/.revdep-rebuild.1_files)

Collecting complete LD_LIBRARY_PATH... done.
  (/root/.revdep-rebuild.2_ldpath)

Checking dynamic linking consistency...
  broken /usr/lib/libgnutls-extra.la (requires /var/tmp/portage/opencdk-0.5.5/image/usr/lib/libopencdk.la)
 done.
  (/root/.revdep-rebuild.3_rebuild)

Assigning files to ebuilds... done.
  (/root/.revdep-rebuild.4_ebuilds)

Evaluating package order... done.
  (/root/.revdep-rebuild.5_order)

All prepared. Starting rebuild...
emerge --oneshot -p =net-libs/gnutls-1.4.4-r1 

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild   R   ] net-libs/gnutls-1.4.4-r1  
Now you can remove -p (or --pretend) from arguments and re-run revdep-rebuild.

It looks like libgnutls-extra was build against libopencdk in a temporary directory. Re-emerging only gnutls does not resolve this problem.

To resolve this, re-emerge app-crypt/opencdk before re-emering gnutls does.

I really wonder how this broken linking could happen.

Versions:
app-crypt/opencdk-0.5.5
net-libs/gnutls-1.4.4-r1

Tried to reproduce this... And could not.
Can you?
Is there anything strange happened to your system before?

[Comment 2 Jan 2007-02-19 21:34:15 UTC]

No. I definitely did not compile gnutls or opencdk myself in the portage tree, this broke without my influence. But even re-emerging older versions of opencdk, then updating to the current version (without letting portage delete the tmp files) and then emerging gnutls does not reproduce the bug on my system. However, this is the only way I could imagine things happened (having old version of opencdk - updating without removing tmp files - installing gnutls). When closing this bug (I would not close it as "FIXED" but I don't see a better choice either) we should keep in mind portage caused linking to a temporary file here, just in case it happens again to somebody else. 

[Comment 3 Alon Bar-Lev (RETIRED) 2007-02-20 06:21:32 UTC]

Yes.
I also tried this sequence... But could not reproduce.
so I am closing this for now... Hopping that will not happen to anyone else...
