Bug 21739 – libgtop 2.0.2-r1 breaks gnome-system-monitor

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Cletus Lichte 2003-05-26 19:18:53 UTC]

After updating my system with emerge -u world, Portage updated libgtop and now
gnome-system-monitor displays the following error:

gnome-system-monitor: error while loading shared libraries:
libgtop_common-2.0.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I'm using the newest Gnome.

Here is my Portage info:

[Comment 1 Mike Gardiner (RETIRED) 2003-05-27 02:17:10 UTC]

i've tested libgtop-2.0.2-r1 with gnome-system-monitor versions: 2.0.2, 2.0.3, 2.0.4, 2.0.4-r1, and 2.3.0 and cannot confirm this error with any of these versions.

the libgtop-2.0.2-r1 package does not contain that library link, but it could be made with:

cd /usr/lib
ln -s libgtop_common-2.0.so.0.0.2 libgtop_common-2.0.so.1

[Comment 2 Cletus Lichte 2003-05-27 02:56:05 UTC]

I tried the link solution and it just says there is another library that it can't find. How many links will I have to set to get it to work again?

[Comment 3 John Youells 2003-05-29 20:10:00 UTC]

I eperience the same error with gcc 2.95.3 on a ~x86 1.2 gentoo. Made the 
ln -s libgtop_common-2.0.so.0.0.2 libgtop_common-2.0.so.1  link and also made a 
ln -s libgtop_sysdeps-2.0.so.0.0.2 libgtop_sysdeps-2.0.so.1   ... then system-monitor ran but thru this error: 
(gnome-system-monitor:355): Gtk-CRITICAL **: file gtktreeviewcolumn.c: line 1558 (gtk_tree_view_column_set_visible): assertion `GTK_IS_TREE_VIEW_COLUMN (tree_column)' failed
 
this error was repeated 6 times and then the app ran. 
heres my emerge info:

I notice that Cletus is running a VIA Samuel 2 and I'm running K6-III+ ....

a fix should be in portage for this, emerge libgtop-2.0.2-r1 and you should hopefully be fine.

[Comment 5 Cletus Lichte 2003-06-12 03:52:17 UTC]

I've re-merged libgtop and gnome-system-monitor is working again.  Thanks!

[Comment 6 foser (RETIRED) 2003-06-12 04:09:26 UTC]

confirmed working fix, closing
