Description Maciek 2004-02-09 14:00:55 UTC
Hello,
After emerging libfam 2.7, I noticed that libfam library is now called libfam.0 and not libfam.so.0. That means that kde 3.1 refuses to start (it seeks libfam.so.0).
A simple ln -s libfam.0.0.0 libfam.so.0 resolves the problem.
I checked the forums, it seems I am not the only one to have this problem...



Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Emerge fam 2.7.0
2. Try to start kde (or licq, or anything that needs libfam)

Actual Results:  
libfam.so.0 not found


(I am putting this as "major". Sorry if it's to severe...)
