When I run tovid, I get: $ tovid Found 2 installations of tovid on your system! I won't run until there is only one of me :) Installed versions: /usr/bin/tovid /usr/X11R6/bin/tovid Exiting... Presumably due to the /usr/X11R6 -> /usr symlink. Removing it fixes the problem, but I don't know if that's safe to do on a permanent basis.
Please, report this upstream... (and no, killing the symlink is not a solution) http://tovid.wikia.com/wiki/Report_a_bug
Just for posterity, looks like it's already fixed in their SVN: http://www.createphpbb.com/tovid/viewtopic.php?t=605&mforum=tovid
Thanks. I guess we could use the patch until they release a new version.
This is what I get Found 3 installations of tovid on your system! I won't run until there is only one of me :) Installed versions: /usr/bin/tovid /usr/bin/tovid /usr/bin/tovid Exiting... I just emerged tovid on my machine and two others, I only get this error on my machine for some reason.
Strange, I emerged the same version and I don't have it, it runs just fine here!

Check $PATH - do you have /usr/bin in there 3 times? (In reply to comment #5) > Strange, I emerged the same version and I don't have it, it runs just fine > here! Probably you don't have /usr/X11R6/bin in your path.
After the last ebuild update (the addition of the ffmpeg-fix) i encountered the above mentioned problem again. So i decided that it's time to look into it. I downloaded the current svn-revision, created a patch for the file that was responsible for the bug (tovid-init) and updated the ebuild. Both files are attached to this bug.
Created attachment 118151 [details] tovid-0.30-r1.ebuild Updated ebuild for tovid version 0.30. It applies both the ffmpeg and the new tovid-init patches
Created attachment 118152 [details, diff] tovid-0.30-tovid-init.patch Patch for the multiple versions installed bug of tovid.
Sorry for the extra noise but somehow my firefox seemed to get confused and thus both files ended up being attached to the wrong bug...
patched in -r2 ebuild, thanks!
