Description Michael Mohr 2007-12-19 00:53:52 UTC
x11-drivers/ati-drivers 8.43.3 installs and works correctly for 64-bit applications, but fails to install a symlink on the 32-bit runtime library search path.  This causes 32-bit apps to be unable to use OpenGL functionality.  symlinking /usr/lib32/opengl/ati/lib/libGL.so.1 in /lib32 fixes the problem.

Reproducible: Always

eselect opengl set ati

The drivers package isn't supposed to make the symlink, eselect does.  This allows for multiple opengl implementations on the same system.  In your case, you'll already have two of them, xorg-x11 and ati.
Comment 2 Michael Mohr 2007-12-19 01:20:37 UTC
OK.  But then this bug is related to eselect and needs to remain open.

Nothing to fix here, kindly see Comment #1.
