Compilation works after adding needed files
(In reply to comment #0) > I found these files by googling and had to adjust them to my system and now > compilation works. Meh, that for sure isn't a valid fix. :-) Also, you seem to have some weird symlining in /usr...
You tried revdep-rebuild already?
Sure it's not a valid fix, that's why I'm posting ;-) But I can't spend mor time on the topic right now. If you need more info, please tell me. I didn't change any of my symlinking in /usr/lib in first place, but then I was trying some things... ;-) It seems to me the script is looking for the .la files in both paths even if there are no symlinks. But, really - I don't know shit about this problem. I'm just happy to have transcode now.... Thanks for your incredibly quick reply! revdep-rebuild isr running right now, thanks for the hint. Alain
(In reply to comment #4) > revdep-rebuild isr running right now, thanks for the hint. Well, for revdep-rebuild to have a chance to spot and fix this, you'll need to remove the googled .la files you did put there first. :)
Created attachment 87636 [details] .revdep-rebuild.3_rebuild here's part of the ouptut of revdep-rebuild. But nothing about libdpstk
ok, I'll remove the googled files...
ok, so I ran >revdep-rebuild -X A lot of broken libs were there, but no ebuilds were rebuilt. I'm using this script for the first time, so I don't know what's supposed to happen. Here's the end of my output: Cleaning list of packages to rebuild... done. (/home/brenzi/.revdep-rebuild.4_packages) Assigning packages to ebuilds... done. (/home/brenzi/.revdep-rebuild.4_ebuilds) Evaluating package order... done. (/home/brenzi/.revdep-rebuild.5_order) Dynamic linking on your system is consistent... All done.
I think I probably ran into the same bug today. This was as a result of doing a revdep-rebuild operation. I decided to get rid of a few ~x86 packages while cleaning up.

I'm sure it's obvious but emerging with -quicktime is an intermediate work around until someone finds the real root cause and pushes it out to the servers. Cheers
Two entirely different bugs in this report. To the first bug: These files look to be old and stale files/symlinks hanging around from an earlier version of Xorg. This is a problem with portage and some apps. where the *.la lib-archive files are left untracked. Perhaps because they are sometimes created by a process external to portage (ldconfig ?) Suggest cleaning your system using the following: emerge --sync emerge gentoolkit emerge portage-utils Using a combination of: find /lib /usr/lib -type f -name "*.la*" -print0 | xargs -0 qfile -o | xargs ls -lh AND find /lib /usr/lib -type f -name "*.so*" -print0 | xargs -0 qfile -o | xargs ls -lh Delete old and stale libs carefully. Any libs installed external to portage (eg. one's you have compiled manually yourself), will also show in this list. Look at the file's creation date and double check a file's need with: equery b <lib_name> When finished, run an `env-update` and `revdep-rebuild -X`. To the second bug: Cannot reproduce the bug. Are you still getting the problem ? Does re-emerging media-libs/libquicktime fix the problem ? What version of media-libs/libquicktime are you using ? Please post the full configure output. Particularly intereseted in the lines: checking whether libquicktime support is requested... yes checking for pkgconfig support for libquicktime... yes checking for lqt-config... /usr/bin/lqt-config checking how to determine LIBQUICKTIME_CFLAGS... pkg-config checking quicktime.h usability... yes checking quicktime.h presence... yes checking for quicktime.h... yes checking how to determine LIBQUICKTIME_LIBS... pkg-config checking for quicktime_open in -lquicktime... yes checking for lqt_encode_video in -lquicktime... yes Does the file /usr/include/lqt/quicktime.h exist ? If so, what does `lqt-config --clfags ` and `pkg-config libquicktime --cflags` say?
I'm sorry. This bug was posted 5 months ago and has been fixed by subsequent updates. Nothing to look at at this time. Thanks
Well, this in not a transcode bug, you simply need to delete orphaned stale .la files and fix your symlinks, transcode compiles perfectly fine with modular X. Closing.
