Description Diego Elio Pettenò (RETIRED) gentoo-dev

The SONAME for the library has been changed from .so.11 to .so.17, thus the bindings fail to load the shared object (even though they _build fine_).

Have fun!

P.S.: this breaks gnome-do, badly.

Yes, it did break gnome-do badly, and I'm not sure why gnome-desktop-sharp isn't able to pull in the .17 file specified via DEPEND. Any Mono application that tries to use gnome-desktop-sharp on will now crash because this dll is never required, but is mentioned anyway.

Comment 3 Jacob Godserv 2010-07-12 14:29:24 UTC

Let me clarify why I dislike this fix:

-  <dllmap dll="gnome-desktop-2" target="libgnome-desktop-2@LIB_PREFIX@.11@LIB_SUFFIX@"/>
+  <dllmap dll="gnome-desktop-2" target="libgnome-desktop-2@LIB_PREFIX@.17@LIB_SUFFIX@"/>

And yet libgnome-desktop-2.so.17 actually does not exist!

~ $ ls -l /usr/lib/libgnome-desktop-2*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root   2292 Jun 29 03:29 /usr/lib/libgnome-desktop-2.la
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     28 Jun 29 03:29 /usr/lib/libgnome-desktop-2.so -> libgnome-desktop-2.so.11.4.2

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 169488 Jun 29 03:29 /usr/lib/libgnome-desktop-2.so.11.4.2

I have re-emerged gnome-desktop-sharp, but no luck. What's going on guys?

Comment 4 Jacob Godserv 2010-07-12 14:32:39 UTC

Oh, I get it. I think you guys might need to depend on gnome-base/gnome-desktop-2.30, which provides the .so.17 this patch fixed.
