Description Duarte Santos 2003-09-08 02:51:31 UTC 
After install ati.drivers 3.2.5 i runned "opengl-update ati" as is in the how to, but  
when i ranned ldconfig it gave errors about "/usr/lib/libGL.so" and  
"/usr/lib/libmesaGL.so" that were links to "/usr/lib/opengl/ati/lib"  
The problem is that "opengl-update" made the links the the directory  
"/usr/lib/opengl/ati/lib" and not to the files "libGL.so" and "libMesaGL.so" inside the  
directory "/usr/lib/opengl/ati/lib"  

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge ati-drivers 
2.opengl-update ati 
3.ldconfig 
Actual Results:  
ldconfig:  
failled to mmap /usr/libGL.so and usr/libMesaGL.so  

Expected Results:  
ln -s /usr/lib/opengl/ati/lib/libGL.so /usr/lib/libGL.so 
ln -s /usr/lib/opengl/ati/lib/libMesaGL.so /usr/lib/libMesaGL.so
Comment 1 Donnie Berkholz (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-04-21 18:16:31 UTC 
This is no longer an issue, as current ati-drivers and opengl-update both link the libs directly.
