Description Brendan Shanks 2007-11-28 01:08:48 UTC

baselibs doesn't include expat 1.x which some i386 binary applications depend on, like media-video/mplayer-bin and app-text/acroread-8.1.1

$ mplayer-bin
/opt/mplayer-bin/bin/mplayer-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libexpat.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

$ acroread
/opt/Adobe/Reader8/Reader/intellinux/bin/acroread: error while loading shared libraries: libexpat.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


Reproducible: Always

baselibs does not have a libexpat.so.0.  mplayer-bin links to libexpat.so.1 and you should be using /opt/bin/acroread instead.  I suspect you have some outdated software on your system.  Here's what I'm running:

[ebuild   R   ] app-text/acroread-7.0.9-r1
[ebuild   R   ] media-video/mplayer-bin-1.0_rc1-r3

False alarm--I had updated a few of the packages (like baselibs) but didn't notice that gtklibs had not been updated, and the old pango wanted expat-2. Acrobat8 and mplayer-bin-1.0_rc1-r3 work now.
