Bug 381149 – x11-libs/gdk-pixbuf-2.24.0 failed (compile phase) because of lack of libffi.so.6

• Status: RESOLVED INVALID
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Amadeusz Żołnowski (RETIRED) 2011-08-30 11:05:20 UTC]

dev-libs/libffi-3.0.10_rc8 installs libffi.so.6, 
dev-libs/libffi-3.0.10 installs libffi.so.5 and no *.6, gdk-pixbuf-2.24.0 expects libffi.so.6.

Well, no.
gdk-pixbuf expects revdep-rebuild after emerging 3.0.10.

Frankly, upstream git qualifies into "messy as hell" category, but the log entries suggest ABI change that was present in rc8 was reverted for ARM Fedora release.

Nice of the upstream, ain't it ? 

Well, at least glib 2.30 (which will depend on libffi) isn't released ATM.

Right, after revdep-rebuild all compiles fine.
