After I update "media-libs/flac" to the latest version available (1.1.2-r3) Amarok couldn't be launched anylonger. The message was the following : $> amarok amaroK: [Loader] Starting amarokapp.. amaroK: [Loader] Don't run gdb, valgrind, etc. against this binary! Use amarokapp. amarokapp: error while loading shared libraries: libFLAC.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory The file libFLAC.so.6 doesn't exists anylonger. But there is a symling named "libFLAC.so" which points to "libFLAC.so.7". I have created a symlink from "libFLAC.so.6" to "libFLAC.so" : $> ln -s libFLAC.so libFLAC.so.6 And now I can launch amarok, and listen to FLAC files. It's my first bug report here. Maybe I should contact the amarok developpers ?

Run revdep-rebuild... Creating the symlink allowed me to launch amarok, so I though there was a configuration issue. I have used Gentoo for one month. No one told me a thing, I'm trying to take part of the project for my first time. Could you be more tolerant ? I though "emerge --update" would manage this kind of dependencies. I will read revdep-rebuild doc. Thank you for this tool.
