Hello, I recently made my emerge --update world, and found that the package transcode won't compile/install because he was looking for the libdirectfb-0.9.so.22 library while on the system there was already the new libdirectfb-0.9.so.24. I had to create a symbolic link to the latter and everything went fine. I did make a: ln -s libdirectfb-0.9.so.24 libdirectfb-0.9.so.22 (promptly removed) emerge --info: Portage 2.0.54-r2 (default-linux/x86/2005.1, gcc-3.3.6, glibc-2.3.6-r3, 2.6.12-gentoo-r6 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.12-gentoo-r6 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.00GHz Gentoo Base System version 1.6.14 dev-lang/python: 2.3.5, 2.4.2 dev-python/pycrypto: [Not Present] dev-util/ccache: [Not Present] dev-util/confcache: [Not Present] sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.17 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r7 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.1 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.22 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O3 -pipe -march=pentium4" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/env /usr/kde/3.4/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/X11/xkb /usr/share/config /usr/share/texmf/dvipdfm/config/ /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/platex/config/ /usr/share/texmf/xdvi/ /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/eselect/compiler /etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O3 -pipe -march=pentium4" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig distlocks sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://distfiles.gentoo.org http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/gentoo" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 X Xaw3d aalib acpi aim alsa apm arts audiofile avi berkdb bitmap-fonts bzip2 cdparanoia cdr cli crypt cups curl dga directfb divx4linux doc dri dvb dvd dvdr dvdread eds emboss encode esd evo exif expat fam fbcon ffmpeg flac foomaticdb fortran gb gd gdbm ggi gif glut gnome gpm graphviz gstreamer gtk gtk2 guile icq idn imagemagick imlib ipv6 isdnlog jabber java jbig jpeg kde lcms ldap libcaca libg++ libwww live lzo mad matroska mikmod mmx mng motif mozilla mp3 mpeg mpi mysql nas ncurses netcdf network nls ogg oggvorbis opengl oscar oss pam pcmcia pcre pdflib perl plotutils png pppd python qt quicktime readline recode reflection samba sdl session slang sox speex spell spl sse sse2 ssl svg tcltk tcpd tetex tga theora tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts udev unicode usb vorbis win32codecs wmf wxwindows xml xml2 xmms xorg xv xvid yahoo zlib userland_GNU kernel_linux elibc_glibc" Unset: ASFLAGS, CTARGET, INSTALL_MASK, LANG, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS, LINGUAS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS, PORTDIR_OVERLAY
