after upgrading to 3.0.14 kde wont start vlc and from command-line the dbus,none interface is used with console-default gui. vlc -vv --intf qt wont work even though vlc -l does list all 3 qt modules. downgrading to 3.0.12.1-r100 (which still is marked stable too) solves all these problems. please confirm, could be a fluke? I have masked the broken version for myself! Reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1. upgrade 2. start vlc -vv on commandline, ctrl-c or "quit" to abort Actual Results: commandline interface Expected Results: qt-gui I'm shortly after profile upgrade, so many things could have gone wrong. after switching profile vlc worked, but not anymore after upgrading it lateron. since it didn't work I did emerge -v1 `qdepends -i vlc |sed -s 's/[^:]*://'` and that didn't help either. downgrading took just the single compilation and suddenly everything works again.
I can't readily see anything wrong with the gui for 3.0.14 Could you provide output of `emerge --info media-video/vlc`, if you could the successful build.log for 3.0.14 have some hints too. No error notable error messages when you launch it?
I can't reproduce it here. It sounds like it is a half done profile (10 --> 17.1) migration? See https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1136064.html
(In reply to josef.95 from comment #2) [...] > It sounds like it is a half done profile (10 --> 17.1) migration? Sorry, half done profile (17.0 --> 17.1) migration was meant.
Please re-open after providing more information that could help us figure out what happened (see comment #1, or anything else that could give hints). But incorrect profile migration does sound like a possible culprit, in which case support venues would be more appropriate: https://www.gentoo.org/support/
