[Description Phil Stracchino (Unix Ronin) 2010-08-26 23:30:18 UTC]

games-puzzle/enigma-1.01 builds and installs without any significant problem, but dies on startup with a SEGV.  strace /usr/games/bin/enigma yields a trace ending with the following:

/usr/lib/icu exists, but /usr/lib/icu/icuplugins44.txt does not.  Neither does /usr/share/xerces-c.

emerge -vuD games-puzzle/enigma installed the following new and upgraded packages:
net-libs/enet-1.2.2
dev-libs/icu-4.4.1 (upgrade, previously 4.2.1)
dev-libs/xerces-c-3.0.1-r1[icu]
media-libs/libmikmod-3.2.0_beta2-r1
media-libs/sdl-ttf-2.0.9
media-libs/sdl-mixer-1.2.11-r1
games-puzzle/enigma-1.01



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge -vuD games-puzzle/enigma
2. add user to group games if necessary
3. try to start /usr/games/bin/enigma

Actual Results:  
Enigma does on startup after failing to find /usr/lib/icu/icuplugins44.txt and /usr/share/xerces-c/msg/xercesc_messages_3_0/*

Please use the instructions at http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/backtraces.xml to provide a proper backtrace; strace won't help you in this situation.

[Comment 2 Phil Stracchino (Unix Ronin) 2010-08-27 01:14:39 UTC]

Go figure.  I rebuilt it with debugging symbols, and now I can't reproduce the SEGV.

Might want to write this one off as unconfirmed for now, until and unless I can reproduce it in a debugging environment.

[Comment 3 Mr. Bones. (RETIRED) 2011-01-25 08:20:11 UTC]

See if it works with dev-libs/xerces-c[-icu, -iconv]

[Comment 4 Mr. Bones. (RETIRED) 2011-12-08 18:07:39 UTC]

Seems to be working.
