Description Patrizio Bassi 2005-11-01 08:50:52 UTC

after merging svgalib i got no more  
libvgagl.so.1 and libvga.so.1 
 
generally that's not a problem, because you just need to reemerge library/programs based on the 
lib, but not now. 
 
for example remerging libggi, vlc, libsdl i still get reference to  libvga.so.1. 
 
I'm pretty skilled in this and i can fix via hexedit (or symlink) but seems not the best solution. 
 
my idea is that the svgalib contains reference but doesn't install symlink. 
 
i don't know if the problem is upstream or ebuild.

works fine for me:
$ qlist svgalib | grep libvga.*.so.1
/usr/lib/libvgagl.so.1
/usr/lib/libvga.so.1
/usr/lib/libvgagl.so.1.9.23
/usr/lib/libvga.so.1.9.23

but you neglected to post `emerge info` like the bug report page told you to

also, run `emerge svgalib >& log` and post the log file as an attachment

i did not include, cause i think it's not needed...it's symlink stuff! 
i tried on another machine and it did symlinks. 
 
actually i manually created both symlink and all works
