Bug 396587 – dev-libs/stfl-0.21 does not install SONAME symlink

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Petr Šabata 2011-12-31 11:12:55 UTC]

I've just installed newsbeuter on my system and it fails to start due to the following:

newsbeuter: error while loading shared libraries: libstfl.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

libstfl is a dependency and it's installed.  The problem is newsbeuter should use libstfl.so.0.21:

/usr/lib64/libstfl.so -> libstfl.so.0.21
/usr/lib64/libstfl.so.0.21



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge newsbeuter
2. newsbeuter
Actual Results:  
newsbeuter: error while loading shared libraries: libstfl.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Expected Results:  
newsbeuter runs

I forgot to mention the versions:

dev-libs/stfl-0.21
net-news/newsbeuter-2.4

[Comment 2 Agostino Sarubbo 2011-12-31 11:15:46 UTC]

emerge -1 libstfl changes anything?

[Comment 3 Petr Šabata 2011-12-31 12:22:39 UTC]

(In reply to comment #2)
> emerge -1 libstfl changes anything?

Nope, it just reinstalls libstfl.so.0.21 and libstfl.so symlink to it.  Nothing magical.  It could possibly install libstfl.so.0 symlink (which solves the problem here) but I think this should be fixed in newsbeuter.

[Comment 4 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) 2011-12-31 17:23:06 UTC]

Looks like version 0.22 does it right. Time to stabilise?

[Comment 5 Tim Harder 2012-01-15 16:54:36 UTC]

Should be fixed in 0.22.
