the gcompris compiles and installs cleanly, but it doesn't work at all. If I try to rum it, it fails with an error. I tried to compile the newer gcompris-package for myself, but this also fails to start (not to compile) . I think this could be an issue for the underlying software (python, sqlite, sdl). I also tried to install gcompris as an klik package, which starts. ** Message: gcompris_set_locale '' ** (gcompris:23161): WARNING **: Requested locale '' got 'de_DE@euro' Opened audio at 44100 Hz 16 bit stereo, 2048 bytes audio buffer Fatal signal: Segmentation Fault (SDL Parachute Deployed) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
Same for me. It used to work before I upgraded my system. I supposed it stopped running because "emerge --deep --update world) upgraded to python 2.4. I recompiled gcompris without python (USE="-python" emerge gcompris), and runs fine again.
disabling python support works around the crash for now.
