remerge supertux and see if that helps.

let's see the output from "ls -l /usr/share/games/supertux/music/SALCON.MOD"
as well please.

[Comment 2 Johannes Steidl 2005-02-10 09:02:49 UTC]

$ ls -l /usr/share/games/supertux/music/SALCON.MOD

sorry, overlooked the first row... a remerge dont solves the problem.

[Comment 4 Mr. Bones. (RETIRED) 2005-02-10 09:14:23 UTC]

run it under strace and attache the output as text/plain please.

Also, let's have the output of the "groups" command - I know it's listed in the emerge --info output but I want to verify something.

[Comment 7 Mr. Bones. (RETIRED) 2005-02-10 12:02:10 UTC]

oh.  You don't have mikmod in your use flags.

[Comment 8 Lars Strojny 2005-02-10 12:08:58 UTC]

Maybe the ebuild should check, whether this Useflag is set or not and than ouput a big fat warning. Do you agree?

[Comment 9 Mr. Bones. (RETIRED) 2005-02-10 12:10:28 UTC]

yep.

[Comment 10 Johannes Steidl 2005-02-10 12:56:34 UTC]

okay, after adding mikmod to my USE-flags i updatet the whole system with

$ emerge -uD world --newuse

and remerged supertux ... but unfortunately its the same error-message when loading supertux.

[Comment 11 Mr. Bones. (RETIRED) 2005-02-10 13:23:31 UTC]

works fine for me.  I'm pretty sure that's the problem.  I don't know how much you care about running supertux given the other open bug about it but if you really want to run it, I suggest "emerge -ev supertux".  pretty sure it'll work after that.

[Comment 12 Johannes Steidl 2005-02-10 13:42:17 UTC]

okay, after adding mikmod to the USE-flags, installing sdl-mixer and mikmod manually it worked just fine...

allthoug  it could be included in the ebuild so that supertux works out-of-the-box[tm]

[Comment 13 Mart Raudsepp 2006-09-25 00:37:27 UTC]

This still failed for me on a fresh install.

sdl-mixer had been built with mikmod USE flag from the beginning.
Emerging mikmod does not help.

However, emerging mikmod followed by re-emerging sdl-mixer does help.

sdl-mixer deps on libmikmod, but not on mikmod. Should it perhaps dep on mikmod instead, or additionally dep on mixmod? The result of sdl-mixer package functionality apparently depends on it being available on build-time, as otherwise just emerging mikmod would have helped, and rebuild of sdl-mixer wouldn't have been necessary.

[Comment 14 Mr. Bones. (RETIRED) 2006-09-27 17:56:14 UTC]

different bug.
