realplayer-10.0.7 is installed in /opt/RealPlayer. the realplay.bin file has a dependency on libstdc++.so.5 which is in the libstdc++-v3-3.3.4 ebuild. revdep-rebuild misses this. Might be useful to add a file for its search dirs in /etc/revdep-rebuild. Or, just add /opt to the list of default search dirs. I know it can be added to make.conf, but thought I would add this suggestion.
/opt is third party software, (effectively) always binaries released from others. Being binary, means can't compile them from src; RealPlayer being a damn good example of it, the thing is a fricking rpm...
yes, but you accomodate openoffice-bin and include it's search dirs (it used to be in opt). peter@mars ~ $ ls /etc/revdep-rebuild 50-openoffice-bin 50-qt3-revdep 99revdep-rebuild
(In reply to comment #2) > yes, but you accomodate openoffice-bin and include it's search dirs That's no reason to add more junk (OO.org bin can't be in /opt, it will break stuff). And we don't accommodate it, we exclude it from SEARCH_DIRS.
If you really want /opt searched, then add SEARCH_DIRS="/opt" to your /etc/make.conf file I will not be adding this as a default since most things that are placed in /opt are binary packages that will not benefit from being reinstalled.
