Bugzilla Bug 67465

Trying to emerge vim on am64. Calculated dependencies are:

  app-editors/vim-core-6.3-rs
  app-editors/vim-6.3-1

during compilation get the following error

msgfmt: error while loading shared libraries: libgettextlib-0.14.1.so: cannot op en shared object file: No such file or directory

I have sys-devel/gettext-0.12.1-r2 installed, but looking throught portage 0.14 is not yet available for this platform.

Are the dependencies listed for vim correct?

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge vim
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
msgfmt: error while loading shared libraries: libgettextlib-0.14.1.so: cannot op
en shared object file: No such file or directory

Expected Results:  
installed

Tried running ldconfig as root?

Ran ldconfig as advised

No difference, same error

Hm. Could you attach a complete build log please? I have a vague idea of what
possibly could be wrong, assuming it's not an amd64 specific screwup :)

Created an attachment (id=41768) [details]
complete output of attempted vim emerge

Complete build output as requested

ciaranm, dont think this is an amd-specific thing ; I get the same exact thing
with txt2regex, which kinda makes me think this is more of a gettext problem. 
Wasn't there a recent problem with gettext?

Yeah, that's definitely a gettext bug, not a vim bug. msgfmt is h0rked. What
does 'ldd /usr/bin/msgfmt' say?

Although, there is a vim nls bug which I just spotted, but it's not related to
this...

        libgettextsrc-0.12.1.so => /usr/lib/libgettextsrc-0.12.1.so
(0x0000002a95658000)
        libgettextlib-0.12.1.so => /usr/lib/libgettextlib-0.12.1.so
(0x0000002a9577c000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x0000002a9588d000)
        /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 => /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2
(0x0000002a95556000)
        libgettextlib-0.14.1.so => not found

You need to reemerge whatever provides /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 .

I'm new to gentoo, and portage. Is there an option for this on emerge? or do I
have to go a hunting?

yeah, emerge gentoolkit then qpkg -f /whatever/the/file/is

the command

  qpkg -f /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2

returns no packages

amd64 people -- heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp!

/lib64/ld-linux-x86_64.so is the amd64 equivalent to /lib/ld-linux.so; thus
provided by sys-libs/glibc.

No point it re-merging that :-)

Mark: Try instead to remerge "sys-devel/gettext".

Ciaran: I had this very problem myself. It could be fixed by a remerge of
gettext. /usr/bin/msgfmt seems to explictily link version 0.12* though 0.14*
has been installed. But i'm too tired to have a look at this now. :-/

This to say at last: This is definitely no vim problem.

Ok, where the heck did I get /lib64/ld-linux-x86_64.so from? I think someone
must've put water in my caffeine...

Re-emerging gettext solved the problem on my end.  Mark?

Sorry the for delay.

Yep solve the problem for me too. Re-emerged gettext and then vim

Thanks

Ok, cool. I'll leave this open for now to remind me to fix that other gettext +
vim bug I noticed...

The postgresql (postgresql-7.4.5-r2) ebuild suffers from this exact problem
too.
Reemerging gettext fixes it.

Ciaran: Mind to make this a duplicate of #66449 ?
