Bug 79713 – gnome packages fail to find /usr/lib/libgnomeui-2.la

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[Description eleven 2005-01-27 06:26:16 UTC]

gedit, nautilus and probably others fail to compile properly because they cannot find libgnomeui-2.la.
gedit:

libtool: link: warning: library `//usr/lib/libgnomeui-2.la' was moved.
libtool: link: warning: library `//usr/lib/libgtksourceview-1.0.la' was moved.
libtool: link: cannot find the library `usr/lib/libgnomeui-2.la'
(lack of '/'?)

manually adding ln -s /usr into portage's work directory with gedit fixes it.

nautilus fails with:
../libtool: line 1: cd: usr/lib: No such file or directory
libtool: link: warning: cannot determine absolute directory name of `usr/lib'
grep: usr/lib/libgnomeui-2.la: No such file or directory

same thing as above.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. USE="gnome hal" emerge -v gnome
2. watch it go boom.
3.

Actual Results:  
it went boom.

Expected Results:  
not go boom.

you got some messed up lib stuff going on and it might just be amd64 related.

[Comment 2 eleven 2005-01-27 10:18:08 UTC]

yep, it looks like some library related mess, but how I could fix it?

Not only a AMD64 problem, same error on x86.

[Comment 5 Simon Stelling (RETIRED) 2005-02-23 07:14:09 UTC]

ok, so it's not a amd64 problem. perhaps a revdep-rebuild will help?

grml, forgot to add ourself to CC

[Comment 7 SpanKY 2005-02-23 07:58:06 UTC]

what does this show:
grep -l '[^/]usr/lib' /usr/lib/*.la
