Bug 294011 – sys-apps/util-linux-2.16.1 does not install libuuid.so to expected te the expected location

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED INVALID

[Description thewtex 2009-11-22 04:46:57 UTC]

sys-apps/util-linux-2.16.1, which replaces e2fsprogs-libs as the provider of libuuid installs libuuid.so into /usr/lib instead of /lib.  /lib/libuuid.so.1 and /lib/libuuid.so.1.3.0 are in the same place they were previously.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Remove e2fsprogs and e2fsprogs-libs
2.  Upgrade e2fsprogs, e2fsprogs-libs, util-linux
3.

Probably you're looking at preserved libs.
/usr/lib/libuuid.so is completely different matter
- that's just a linker script.

Sorry, I misread your report.
Second sentence still holds.

I'm having the same problem, I think.  Here's the last bit of output before it dies.
