Using this glibc/mplayer/Use-Flag combo lets mplayer segfault. compiling mplayer without that USE-Flag magically let it not segfault. ^^ Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. USE="sdl" emerge mplayer 2. USE="-sdl" emerge mplayer Actual Results: 1. mplayer segfaults 2. mplayer works Expected Results: that: 'USE="sdl" emerge mplayer' works again anomalie ~ # emerge -pv mplayer These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies ...done!

add: it worked with glibc-2.3.4.20041006!
same problem here. however i've noticed that it segfaults only with -ao arts. works fine with -ao oss. this is second problem with arts-sdl-mplayer. first one is still unresolved (see #64192)
i use alsa and it segfaults. but even mplayer --help segfaults because it just does not get the sdl libs. may be this is more a glibc dev problem rather than mplayer? "if" its a problem because bleeding edge glibc. ^^ may be the glibc-compat stuff did it... it got dropped in glibc 1021... but better this stuff stays droppped and mplayer segfaults with sdl... ;)
to that other bug, libsdl was compiled with gcc-3.4.2 long time ago and worked fine until glibc upgrade.
While having same issues with neverball, i solved it by recompiling neverball with GCC 3.3.
If you're upgrading gcc, and have a problem with a library, the solution may be to simply re-compile it. Please check and see if this works.
chris, btw, did u update the mplayer ebuild? ;) if you talk to me, i didnt upgrade gcc... like i said GLIBC upgrade did it :) if it was not for me ignore this ^^
er... yah, glibc. But still, when doing a glibc upgrade and things don't work, the solution is often to re-compile the bad library. I'd try re-compiling sdl, then re-compiling MPlayer.
sorry not to mention. i did it and no luck. gcc-3.4.3 and glibc-1102 are out ill may check sdl/mplayer again soon. ill report
it is still. libsdl and mplayer re-compiled. since glibc-compat stuff got cut it is or glibc does sth other bad. ill stay with -sdl. have phun! :)
ok i found out the problem. please mark this as duplicate of bug #52732 and resolved thanks!
