I noticed that spellchecking didn't work in Gaim so I tried this: gaim -d | grep spell plugins: probing /usr/lib/gaim/spellchk.so plugins: probing /usr/lib/gaim/spellchk.la g_log: Module error: /usr/lib/enchant/libenchant_ispell.so: undefined symbol: _ZNSs4_Rep20_S_empty_rep_storageE g_log: Module error: /usr/lib/enchant/libenchant_myspell.so: undefined symbol: _ZNSs4_Rep20_S_empty_rep_storageE gtkspell: Failed to setup GtkSpell: enchant error for language: sv_SE.utf8 Remerging enchant didn't help. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
Steps to reproduce: You have to actually open a converstion window before you see the errors. Googling tells me this could be gcc 3.4 related?
do you have ispell installed ? do you have aspell or ispell dicts installed for your locale ? where is your 'emerge info' like one should always provive in a bugreport & the form tells you to ? 'remerging enchant didn't help' -> no surprise there, it's not windows.
'remerging enchant didn't help' -> no surprise there, it's not windows. Ok, so tell me what revdep-rebuild is for? I just downgraded from glib 2.5 to 2.4, and guess what? libwnck and gail both had missing symbols, and remerging them did help.

"Ok, so tell me what revdep-rebuild is for? I just downgraded from glib 2.5 to 2.4, and guess what? libwnck and gail both had missing symbols, and remerging them did help." That you don't understand what you're doing doesn't mean it is the same thing. glib is only backwards compatible, not forward. As such revdep-rebuild is mostly used by ppl who downgrade or where upstream devs fail to have a safe libtool versioning scheme, in theory it shouldn't be needed. Afaic this bugreport can be closed, becuase you obviously have a tendency to 'experiment' with base libs, that really makes it a system i can't say a sane thing about.
Sorry for opening the bug early (before I'm done debugging), so others would find it if they had the same problem. Sorry for trying to get involved in Gentoo and testing and developing new ebuilds. Sorry for not providing emerge info in the first run. But is it a fscking bug, and it's fixed in enchant 1.1.5, just tested this. It's there with enchant 1.1.3 compiled with CFLAGS="", and it works with enchant 1.1.5 with my normal cflags. Now, when people opened a request for abiword 2.2 you got really annoyed with them so now that you know that enchant 1.1.5 is out maybe I shouldn't open a request for that. It's a pretty clean ebuild, renaming works great. "As such revdep-rebuild is mostly used by ppl who downgrade" So, maybe something had been downgraded without me really thinking about it? Why not try remerging it? Don't be so aggressive.
I'm sorry for your seemingly dishonest sorry's, it doesn't help one bit. As a matter of fact i am aware of 1.1.5's existance for almost a week now. As I was aware of abiwords state all along when someone for the 3rd time commented on it, it's better to get spam than pointless bugmail like that : spam I can filter. Define your bug ? the undefined symbols are of no influence on enchants functioning. That 1.1.5 works has probably more todo with the recompile vs aspell than anything else. I bet the ispell backend at least is still not working with your 1.1.5 enchant. What does the downgrade have todo with agressiveness ? I think you reflect your feelings about me wanting to close this bug on me as a person. I want to close it because your sys is obviously not clean & as such I don't want to waste time looking into something which may not even be because of Gentoo ebuilds, I hope you can respect that decision.
>That 1.1.5 works has probably more todo with the recompile vs aspell than anything else. No, I tried switching back and forth between 1.1.5 and 1.1.3 many times, it's allways there with 1.1.3 and not with 1.1.5: >>It's there with enchant 1.1.3 compiled with CFLAGS="", and it works with enchant 1.1.5 with my normal cflags.
Since this was on an unclean system and I have added the latest version of enchant, this can be closed.
