after emerging net-im/slack-bin, running `$ slack` from the command line fails to launch the program, producing the following error: slack: error while loading shared libraries: libXss.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory `$ ls -l /usr/lib64/libXs*` produces no results. to solve this issue i emerged x11-libs/libXScrnSaver, which results in no errors and successfully launches the program when running `$ slack` from the command line. and `$ ls -l /usr/lib64/libXs*` produces the following results: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 Dec 20 15:03 /usr/lib64/libXss.so -> libXss.so.1.0.0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 Dec 20 15:03 /usr/lib64/libXss.so.1 -> libXss.so.1.0.0 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 14376 Dec 20 15:03 /usr/lib64/libXss.so.1.0.0 separately, until this is fixed, is there a better way to get libXss.so.1 on my system than emerging x11-libs/libXScrnSaver?
