What is the version of Secondlife you have emerged ? Can you tell us which version of media-libs/jpeg you use ? You can check these information with an "emerge -pv PACKAGE_NAME"
(In reply to comment #1) > What is the version of Secondlife you have emerged ? > Can you tell us which version of media-libs/jpeg you use ? > > You can check these information with an "emerge -pv PACKAGE_NAME" > media-libs/jpeg-7 I resolved the problem installing: media-libs/jpeg-compat which put files of jpeg 6 in the /usr/lib directory problably secondlife.bin has ti be updated to use jpeg 7 or ebuild has to have the dependency of jpeg-compat
Someone should contact secondlife upstream and tell them about the situation. Maintainers should use || ( media-libs/jpeg-compat <media-libs/jpeg-7 ) deps while waiting.
@games: Do you care about the package? I haven't seen Joe in a long time.
+ 13 Sep 2009; Samuli Suominen <ssuominen@gentoo.org> + secondlife-bin-1.22.11.ebuild, secondlife-bin-1.23_rc2.ebuild, + secondlife-bin-1.23_rc4.ebuild: + Use jpeg-compat wrt #283241, thanks to Silvio Gerli for reporting.
This is a nasty binary package, unfortunately. There is also a build-from-source version in the tree, but some of the audio features do not work, as they rely on binary-only things. It would be nice to get rid of the binary pkg, of course, but functionality isn't identical, I left it. Thanks for fixing the JPEG issue. I guess that's one possible issue with binary pkgs as libs move forward (and revdep-rebuild cannot fix these cases). It's actually strange that no new RCs have been released for quite some time from upstream.
