Bug 173181 – dev-util/subversion-1.3.2 requires db-4.2

• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 136654
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Carlos Eduardo Santos 2007-04-02 18:56:25 UTC]

emerge -uDN world upgraded db from 4.2 to 4.3, then emerge --depclean removed db-4.2 and subversion is broken: "svn: error while loading shared libraries: libdb-4.2.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory".

I tried do recompile subversion (1.3.2-r3), but it failed because db-4.2 is required for compilation, too.

I had to emerge -av =sys-libs/db-4.2.52_p4-r2 to get svn working

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge --depclean
2.emerge subversion
3.run svn

I'm getting this on my laptop as well, but recompiling subversion worked on my other systems...

A revdep-rebuild is heavily recommended after depclean :)

From the big fat warning:
*** WARNING ***  Depclean may break link level dependencies.  Thus, it is
*** WARNING ***  recommended to use a tool such as `revdep-rebuild` (from
*** WARNING ***  app-portage/gentoolkit) in order to detect such breakage.

[Comment 3 Luke-Jr 2007-04-03 23:21:01 UTC]

Yeah, and revdep-rebuild tries to rebuild subversion... which errors!

[Comment 4 Luke-Jr 2007-04-03 23:27:01 UTC]

If you rearrange apr-util to rebuild first, subversion will work!

[Comment 5 Carlos Eduardo Santos 2007-04-04 06:43:01 UTC]

I always run revdep-rebuild, but this time I forgot, sorry. revdep-rebuild made subversion run with only db-4.3.

Reopen to dupe.
