Description James Cloos 2012-08-19 19:43:00 UTC
libmpc.so.2 was a dependency of the internal gcc binaries:

:; readelf -d /usr/libexec/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/4.7.1/cc1 | egrep NEEDED
 0x0000000000000001 (NEEDED)             Shared library: [libmpc.so.2]

but when portage updated dev-libs/mpc (due to dev-libs/mpc-1.0 landing in the sage-on-gentoo overlay), /usr/lib64/libmpc.so.2 was not preserved.

Portage should check the internal gcc libs and binaries for lib dependecies, just as it does /usr/bin/*, et al.
Comment 1 James Cloos 2012-08-19 19:45:19 UTC
(Incidently, the only way I can see to fix such a damaged system is to:

:; ln -s libmpc.so.3 /usr/lib64/libmpc.so.2

before re-compiling.)

That's a pretty bad idea, there. Try 

http://tinderbox.dev.gentoo.org/default-linux/amd64/dev-libs/mpc-0.8.2.tbz2

next time.
Comment 3 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2012-08-20 02:41:12 UTC
i have no idea what this "sage-on-gentoo" business is, but it has nothing to do with the toolchain.  mpc-0.9 is in the main tree.
Comment 4 Ryan Hill (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-08-20 15:56:32 UTC
yes when mpc-1.0 is added it'll preserve libmpc.so.2.
Comment 5 James Cloos 2012-08-20 22:23:52 UTC
This is not invalid.

How exaclty could portage ever preserve a library version just because the ebuild is in the primary tree and not in an overlay.

The replies here make no sense.
Comment 6 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2012-08-20 22:25:19 UTC
portage already has FEATURES=preserve-libs
Comment 7 James Cloos 2012-08-20 22:25:51 UTC
Also, this is not a toolchain bug, nor did I write anything to suggest that it were.

It is a sys-devel/portage bug, as I specified.
Comment 8 James Cloos 2012-08-20 22:26:58 UTC
Yes, and I obviously have FEATURES=preserve-libs enabled or I wouldn’t have reported the damned bug.

Please don’t interfere if you don’t understand the bug or the report.
Comment 9 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2012-08-20 22:32:33 UTC
(In reply to comment #8)

you might want to adjust your attitude considering the OP (you) mis-reported it in the first place
Comment 10 James Cloos 2012-08-20 22:47:37 UTC
OK.  I see.  Portage is a product, not a component.

My browser history link is to the G-L product, so appologies for that confusion.

But the prose in the opening report still should be obvious; I don’t see any ambiguity in it....
Comment 11 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2012-08-21 00:17:30 UTC
ambiguity: you need to post `emerge --info` in all bug reports.  nowhere did you say you used FEATURES=preserve-libs, and most non-devs don't unmask the latest portage let alone know about that feature.  so assuming anything there isn't really feasible.

the original subject line you used was more accurate and probably should have been touched up rather than rewritten, but too late now.

now that we're all on the same page, we can focus on the bug at hand.

my understanding is that FEATURES=preserve-libs doesn't focus on specific paths but relies on the NEEDED database in /var/db/pkg to determine when something is still needed.  i don't know what debugging information Zac could use here though to trace things down so he'll have to request.
Comment 12 Ryan Hill (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-08-21 00:24:34 UTC
I know for a fact that preserved-libs covers gcc libs already.  Also the dev-libs/mpc-1.0 bump I forgot to commit in my overlay does indeed cause libmpc.so.2 to be preserved with preserve-libs so I'm not sure what the problem you're running into could be.
Comment 13 James Cloos 2012-08-21 13:41:52 UTC
I don’t know, but it certainly did not preserve it here.

I use portage-9999, but I haven’t updated it in a couple of weeks.  Perhaps a bug already fixed?  Or one only in the master branch?

Please post the output of emerge --version (it reports the version relative to the closed tag).

> Perhaps a bug already fixed?  Or one only in the master branch?

The most recently fixed preserve-libs bug in the master branch was bug 406837, and it's already been released since portage-2.2.0_alpha90.

It accounts for the NEEDED fields of all installed ELF binaries. Please attach /var/db/pkg/sys-devel/4.7.1/NEEDED.ELF.2 which contains the data that preserve-libs uses.

I’ve already updated portage; the build log shows:

Comment 18 Fabian Groffen gentoo-dev 2012-08-22 15:18:47 UTC
now try grep -F libmpc.so.2 /var/db/pkg/*/CONTENTS

if that matches (multiple times), there's the problem
Comment 19 Fabian Groffen gentoo-dev 2012-08-22 15:19:24 UTC
sorry, that needs to be

grep -F libmpc.so.2 /var/db/pkg/*/*/CONTENTS
Comment 20 François Bissey 2012-08-22 22:31:20 UTC
I should take responsibility for putting it in the overlay without opening a bug for it in bugzilla. I fixed the ebuild in the sage-on-gentoo overlay to preserve the old library.
I didn't know about preserving old libraries for portage 2.1.
Comment 21 James Cloos 2012-08-22 23:06:23 UTC
The grep(1) (the correction was obvious) for libmpc.so.2 in the CONTENTS files returned no matches.

So, this bug has nothing to do with FEATURES=preserve-libs then?
Comment 23 James Cloos 2012-08-22 23:12:54 UTC
> So, this bug has nothing to do with FEATURES=preserve-libs then?

As stated earlier, I do have FEATURES=preserve-libs set.

Everything else is preserved w/o adding preserve_old_lib calls in pkg_preinst() and pkg_postinst() functions.

If mpc-1.0 needs it, then wouldn’t *every* ebuild which installs a library need it, too?
Comment 24 Zac Medico gentoo-dev 2012-08-22 23:17:13 UTC
If you have FEATURES=preserve-libs enabled, and your installed portage supports it, then preserve_old_lib is entirely irrelevant.
Comment 25 Lukas Zavodny 2012-09-08 14:14:42 UTC
Well I am not sure if this is right bug, so correct me if I am wrong, but after update mpc to version 1.0, portage cries after every install that  libmpc.so.2 is missing and needed by gcc. Gcc itself works, however this messages still presist after reemerging gcc.
Comment 26 Ben Longbons 2012-09-14 22:55:27 UTC
Do you have USE=multislot? In that case this would be the same as bug 434536

(This is the kind of thing following the instructions about emerge --info helps with)
Comment 27 James Cloos 2012-09-15 16:38:14 UTC
No, I do not USE multislot.
Comment 28 James Cloos 2012-09-15 16:42:52 UTC
From eix -e sys-devel/gcc:

4.6.3 and 4.7.1: cxx doc fortran gcj go graphite gtk mudflap multilib nls nptl objc objc++ objc-gc openmp

4.4.7 and 4.5.4: the same except for go.
Comment 29 aditsu 2013-04-10 17:27:46 UTC
I think I encountered a similar problem, although I'm not using preserve-libs: I upgraded mpc, manually ran a revdep-rebuild which said "Dynamic linking on your system is consistent... All done.", then deleted libmpc.so.2 and gcc stopped working: "/usr/libexec/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/4.5.4/cc1: error while loading shared libraries: libmpc.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"

emerge --info (after switching to gcc 4.4.5 which still works):

Correction: the first time I ran "revdep-rebuild --library '/usr/lib64/libmpc.so.2' -- -av" which said "There are no dynamic links to /usr/lib64/libmpc.so.2... All done."

After deleting libmpc.so.2 (and seeing gcc stop working) I ran "revdep-rebuild -i -- -av" which said "Dynamic linking on your system is consistent... All done."

That could be a bug in revdep-rebuild, which is different from preserve-libs. Please file a new bug.
