ezquake-bin requires glib-1.2 but does not pull it in as dependancy. I needed to manually install it and now it works. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. On a system having no glib-1.2 installed, install ezquake-bin 2. Try to start it - dynamic linker fails to find libglib-1.2.so Actual Results: Does not start. Expected Results: Should start... ;-) Probably other dependancies are needed - like opengl stuff. As far as I realized, absolutely no dep is specified in the ezquake ebuild.
> Probably other dependencies are needed - like opengl stuff. opengl is specified in RDEPEND. It's not in DEPEND because it's not needed, to *install* a pre-compiled binary. It's only needed at runtime.
Yes you are right. RDEPEND has all obvious deps (I was a little tired ;-)). But glib-1.2 is missing. Maybe RDEPEND="$RDEPEND <dev-libs/glib-1.3" is enough. That's the atom I installed to resolve the issue.
added glib dep. thanks for the bug report.
