Several applications will no longer install with above errors. So far, these programs have failed: hal, kipi-plugins, gimp-2.6, digikam, kdiff3, krecipes, amarok, kpowersave, kid3, kflickr, tellico, libxcb, gnome-doc-utils, ktraynetworker, and gwenview. May be others. More descriptive outline of problem in supplied url. I have re-emerged libxml2 and libxslt, python, ran python-updater, tried emerge -e system and got through most of it before I gave up with all the above failed emerges. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge -av1 <package> 2. 3.

Expected Results: successful install Now I cannot run revdep-rebuild successfully because it fails on some of these packages. Other packages I wish to use are not installable.
1) Please post your `emerge --info' too. 2) You will need to finish a `revdep-rebuild -i' somehow. 3) This still doesn't look like one specific bug to me.

Vmware-vix is the culprit and it leaked its libxml2, an older version than was installed in the proper library directory. I uninstalled vmware-vix and things are back to working normally. Should this bug be marked invalid of just fixed? Here is what told the story (pardon the line-wrapping if it happens): qfile -v `locate libxml2.so` app-emulation/vmware-vix-1.6.0.116503 (/opt/vmware/server/lib/vmware-vix/lib/libxml2.so.2.6.26) app-emulation/vmware-vix-1.6.0.116503 (/opt/vmware/server/lib/vmware-vix/lib/libxml2.so.2) app-emulation/vmware-vix-1.6.0.116503 (/opt/vmware/server/lib/vmware-vix/lib/VIServer-2.0.0/32bit/libxml2.so.2.6.26) app-emulation/vmware-vix-1.6.0.116503 (/opt/vmware/server/lib/vmware-vix/lib/VIServer-2.0.0/32bit/libxml2.so.2) app-emulation/vmware-vix-1.6.0.116503 (/opt/vmware/server/lib/vmware-vix/lib/libxml2.so)
Should be marked invalid, really. :)
