possibly related to xmlto update
Comment 2 Fabian Groffen gentoo-dev 2009-06-29 19:29:15 UTC
hmmm, 2009-06-12 a newer version of glib was added to the tree (which is a depend of this package), but I can't see how it can cause this error.

I also can't reproduce this on my machine(s).

shared-mime-info doesn't use xmlto but xmllint from libxml2 (in a turn, xmlto is using xmllint from libxml2 too)

i've tried to reproduce this by "emerge -C docbook-xml-dtd" (as in remove all versions) and emerging shared-mime-info without luck, dunno what this is about
Comment 4 Joe Peterson (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-09-07 14:54:04 UTC
If it helps, I had this exact problem in regular Gentoo (i.e. not prefix), building a fresh Gentoo amd64 system.  It happened during the emerge of kdebase-meta.

Simply running the emerge again caused the package to succeed (it was not the first to build in that next emerge).

I suspect either an intermittent failure (parallel compile?) or an order of package build issue - or something else mysterious.  But I figured I'd share this info if at all useful.

0.70 in regular portage tree...

I just found this to break vmplayer.  Complaining about not finding a .png file.  Sorry I dont have the info right now as I already back it out.

A Me-Too story:

I emerge 0.70, and backed it out almost immediately. VMware Server 2.0.1.156745-r3 seems to start OK, but refused to actually display the Guest console.  And, all my images were nuked for Pidgin (both on the KDE tray and within the app).  0.70 would appear to be majorly hosed.

I find it hard to believe that you guys are all on Gentoo Prefix.. Considering 0.70 isn't even in the prefix tree yet, you should open a _NEW_ bug so it reaches the maintainers! Right now, your complaints are falling onto people that aren't listening...

Adding myself back. For no reason.

closing this bug, as the version reported, and the version mentioned aren't even in the tree any mroe
