An updated xorg-x11-6.8.0-r4 with updated xorg.conf breaks tk library. Programs like nxtvepg don't work anymore. new xorg.conf must be modified: is: RgbPath "/etc/lib/X11/rgb" should be: RgbPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb" Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. update xorg.conf 2. start nxtvepg 3. Actual Results: program does nit start: Failed to initialise the Tk library at '/usr/lib/tk8.4' - exiting. Tk error message: this isn't a Tk applicationunknown color name "Black" Expected Results: start and work properly.

Workaround: new xorg.conf must be modified: is: RgbPath "/etc/lib/X11/rgb" should be: RgbPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb"
It doesn't change it to /etc. It changes /usr/X11R6 to /usr. Someone must've done the /etc change themselves, because X doesn't do it. donnie@garlic ~ $ grep Rgb /usr/portage/x11-base/xorg-x11/xorg-x11-6.* /usr/portage/x11-base/xorg-x11/xorg-x11-6.8.0-r4.ebuild: sed -i 's~^\([ \t]*RgbPath[ \t]\+\)"/usr/X11R6/$(get_libdir)/X11/rgb"~\1"/usr/$(get_libdir)/X11/rgb"~' \ /usr/portage/x11-base/xorg-x11/xorg-x11-6.8.1.901.ebuild: sed -i 's~^\([ \t]*RgbPath[ \t]\+\)"/usr/X11R6/$(get_libdir)/X11/rgb"~\1"/usr/$(get_libdir)/X11/rgb"~' \ /usr/portage/x11-base/xorg-x11/xorg-x11-6.8.1.901-r1.ebuild: sed -i 's~^\([ \t]*RgbPath[ \t]\+\)"/usr/X11R6/$(get_libdir)/X11/rgb"~\1"/usr/$(get_libdir)/X11/rgb"~' \ /usr/portage/x11-base/xorg-x11/xorg-x11-6.8.1.902.ebuild: sed -i 's~^\([ \t]*RgbPath[ \t]\+\)"/usr/X11R6/$(get_libdir)/X11/rgb"~\1"/usr/$(get_libdir)/X11/rgb"~' \
The change is: RgbPath "/usr/lib/X11/rgb" should be: RgbPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb"
readlink -f /usr/X11R6/lib.
On my box, `ls /usr/X11R6/lib' gave "lib modules", where "lib" was a symlink to "../lib". I thought the expected bahaviour was that /usr/X11R6/lib should be a symlink to /usr/lib, then everything should be OK.
Yes, that _should_ be the behavior. Seems you hit a bug somewhere. Give 6.8.1.904 a try (or wait til tomorrow or so and try 6.8.2).
Donnie, that's not the expected behavior... Thomas is saying: # ls -l /usr/X11R6/lib lib -> ../lib modules Ie, X11R6/lib is still there. This is probably similar to the problem I had a few weeks ago with some . files existing in lib that didn't get moved. Thomas, can you please do: find /usr/X11R6/lib
# find /usr/X11R6/lib /usr/X11R6/lib
Jeremy, I think you misunderstood my comment. I was agreeing with the second half of comment #5.
Please reopen if you're still reproducing this.
