Jamin builds fine but then complains when it runs in a terminal. I suspect that the swh-plugins stuff is a bit out of date. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Just run it 2. 3.

Mark, what version of swh-plugins do you have installed? I noticed that different releases of the swh-plugins come with different plugins, mostly upgrades but having a different 'id'. I can think of reasons why Steve would do it this way, but on the other hand removing the old obsolete plugins seems to break applications and compositions that rely on the old plugins. I suspect that you're try to un an 'unlucky' combination of swh-plugins and jamin here.
Mark, perhaps it makes you feel better knowing that the 'lookahead_limiter_const_1906.so' bug did also bite the Planet CCRMA and Debian distributions. Downgrading to an older swh-plugins might work for you, or just wait a bit for me to complete testing on the newer swh-plugins-0.4.7 and jamin-0.9 releases (in progress).
Frank - here's what's installed. If I'm not mistaken this is what was installed by me just doing an emerge of Jamin, so it looked like the Jamin ebuild wasn't correctly making sure the plugins were up to date. root@flash ~ # emerge -pv swh-plugins These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies ...done! [ebuild R ] media-plugins/swh-plugins-0.4.3-r1 0 kB Total size of downloads: 0 kB root@flash ~ # I'm in absolutely no rush. I was only reporting this to get the ball rolling and an update out one of these days so others don't run into the same problem later. Thanks for looking after this!
Mark, I committed an update to both jamin and swh-plugins to portage. Since the new ebuilds are keyworded as testing they won't immediately show up for your (stable) system. If you feel lucky you might want to install the new ebuild: ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge --pretend jamin and run without the --pretend option if you're happy with the selected set of ebuilds to-be-installed.
Frank, The ebuilds were fine and the problem is gone. no error messages. thanks! - Mark
