I do compile my system with the debug use flag; last night, I went from ~amd64 gstreamer (10.9-ish) to amd64 gstreamer (10.4-ish), as I was cleaning out my package.keywords list from Gnome 2.14. So I recompiled all my gstreamer and gst-plugins packages. When I rebooted this morning, gnome-settings-daemon refused to start (with the same __gst_debug_min error I get with the ebuild). So I figured I'd recompile anything that required gstreamer. And now gnome-applets isn't compiling. x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -march=k8 -O2 -pipe -ggdb -o mixer_applet2 applet.o dock.o load.o preferences.o -Wl,--export-dynamic -pthread -pthread -pthread /usr/lib64/libgstreamer-0.10.so /usr/lib64/libgstinterfaces-0.10.so /usr/lib64/libgstaudio-0.10.so /usr/lib64/libpanel-applet-2.so /usr/lib64/libgnome-desktop-2.so /usr/lib64/libgnomeui-2.so /usr/lib64/libSM.so /usr/lib64/libICE.so /usr/lib64/libstartup-notification-1.so /usr/lib64/libbonoboui-2.so /usr/lib64/libgnome-keyring.so /usr/lib64/libxml2.so -lz /usr/lib64/libgnomecanvas-2.so /usr/lib64/libgnome-2.so /usr/lib64/libpopt.so /usr/lib64/libart_lgpl_2.so /usr/lib64/libpangoft2-1.0.so /usr/lib64/libgtk-x11-2.0.so /usr/lib64/libgdk-x11-2.0.so /usr/lib64/libatk-1.0.so /usr/lib64/libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.so /usr/lib64/libpangocairo-1.0.so /usr/lib64/libpango-1.0.so /usr/lib64/libcairo.so /usr/lib64/libgnomevfs-2.so /usr/lib64/libbonobo-2.so /usr/lib64/libgconf-2.so /usr/lib64/libgobject-2.0.so /usr/lib64/libbonobo-activation.so /usr/lib64/libORBit-2.so -lm /usr/lib64/libgmodule-2.0.so -ldl /usr/lib64/libgthread-2.0.so /usr/lib64/libglib-2.0.so /usr/lib64/libgstinterfaces-0.10.so: undefined reference to `__gst_debug_min' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[3]: *** [mixer_applet2] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/gnome-applets-2.14.2/work/gnome-applets-2.14.2/mixer' make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/gnome-applets-2.14.2/work/gnome-applets-2.14.2/mixer' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/gnome-applets-2.14.2/work/gnome-applets-2.14.2' make: *** [all] Error 2 StubbornAesthetics ~ #

when you recompiled gstreamer and its plugins, did you use the debug flag again? If not, try compiling gstreamer +debug, or you can recompile gst-plugins-base -debug. Report back with results, thanks.
Yeah; these were the ones I re-did after going down to stable amd64: StubbornAesthetics ~ # emerge -pv gstreamer gst-plugins-alsa gst-plugins-oss gst-plugins-xvideo gst-plugins-x gst-plugins-esd gst-plugins-ogg gst-plugins-vorbis gst-plugins-gnomevfs gst-plugins-cdparanoia gst-plugins-pango These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done! [ebuild R ] media-libs/gstreamer-0.10.8 0 kB [ebuild R ] media-plugins/gst-plugins-alsa-0.10.4 0 kB [ebuild R ] media-plugins/gst-plugins-oss-0.10.2 0 kB [ebuild R ] media-plugins/gst-plugins-xvideo-0.10.4-r1 0 kB [ebuild R ] media-plugins/gst-plugins-x-0.10.4 0 kB [ebuild R ] media-plugins/gst-plugins-esd-0.10.2 0 kB [ebuild R ] media-plugins/gst-plugins-ogg-0.10.4 0 kB [ebuild R ] media-plugins/gst-plugins-vorbis-0.10.4 0 kB [ebuild R ] media-plugins/gst-plugins-gnomevfs-0.10.4 0 kB [ebuild R ] media-plugins/gst-plugins-cdparanoia-0.10.4 0 kB [ebuild R ] media-plugins/gst-plugins-pango-0.10.4 0 kB All of those were compiled with -ggdb in the CFLAGS, so debug info was added to them. They don't seem to have a "debug" use flag. ~~ Andrew D.
Going back up to the latest ~amd64 components, (gstreamer-0.10.9, gst-plugins-base-0.10.9, and the plugins' latest versions) solved the issue. I'll just wait for those (or a newer version) to go stable before trying to play with them again, I guess.
For the record, sounds like you needed a revdep-rebuild after downgrading your gstreamer packages.
(In reply to comment #4) > For the record, sounds like you needed a revdep-rebuild after downgrading your > gstreamer packages. > I should probably explain the entire situation from start to finish. 1) Wanted to get rid of some lines in packages.keywords, considering that gstreamer 0.10 has hit stable (for the most part). 2) Downgraded to the versions in comment #2. 3) Could not start any program (including gnome-settings-daemon) that used gstreamer. 4) Ran a revdep-rebuild. It listed nothing. 5) I used ecatmur's dep script to find the packages that depended on gstreamer. They were: gnome-applets gnome-media banshee sound-juicer 6) Tried to re-emerge those. They all failed (but I only posted this one bug, as they were all related). 7) Re-upgraded to what I had. Recompiled the apps above. Everything works. So... I did do a revdep-rebuild, as well as manually ran an emerge for the dependencies. Thanks for the suggestion anyway. ~~ Andrew D.
