When I try to emerge GnomeMeeting, I get the following errors and thus it cannot be installed: /bin/sh ../libtool --mode=link g++ -o gnomemeeting callbacks.o gdkvideoio.o gnomemeeting.o connection.o endpoint.o menu.o toolbar.o pref_window.o sound_handling.o videograbber.o config.o ldap_window.o main_window.o gatekeeper.o ils.o misc.o chat_window.o druid.o urlhandler.o vfakeio.o tray.o tools.o lid.o ../lib/libgnomemeeting.la -L/usr/lib -L/usr/lib -Wl,--export-dynamic -pthread -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lesd -laudiofile -lgnomeui-2 -lSM -lICE -lbonoboui-2 -lxml2 -lpthread -lz -lgnomecanvas-2 -lgnome-2 -lpopt -lart_lgpl_2 -lpangoft2-1.0 -lgtk-x11-2.0 -lgdk-x11-2.0 -latk-1.0 -lgdk_pixbuf-2.0 -lpangoxft-1.0 -lpangox-1.0 -lpango-1.0 -lbonobo-2 -lgconf-2 -lgnomevfs-2 -lbonobo-activation -lORBit-2 -lgobject-2.0 -lgthread-2.0 -lm -lgmodule-2.0 -ldl -lglib-2.0 -L/usr/lib -lldap -llber -lresolv -L/usr/lib -Wl,-rpath,/usr/lib -lSDL -lpthread -lopenh323 -ldl -lpt -lpthread -lxml2 -L/usr/lib -lldap -llber -lresolv -L/usr/lib -lldap -llber -lresolv -lresolv mkdir .libs libtool: link: cannot find the library `' make[2]: *** [gnomemeeting] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/gnomemeeting-0.98.5/work/gnomemeeting-0.98.5/src' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/gnomemeeting-0.98.5/work/gnomemeeting-0.98.5' make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2 !!!

I have just seen this is not a gnomemeeting specific problem. I have the same output while emerging blender, so I think fixing one problem can fix both; emerge blender [...] lots of lines of "compiling" [...] /bin/sh ./libtool --mode=link gcc -O3 -march=athlon-xp -funroll-loops -fprefetch-loop-arrays -pipe -funsigned-char -I/usr/include/freetype2 -DWITH_FREETYPE2 -L/usr/lib -L/usr/lib -lfreetype -L/usr/lib -L/usr/lib -o blender -L/usr/lib/python2.2/config -Xlinker -export-dynamic source/libblender_source.la intern/bsp/libblender_BSP.la intern/decimation/libblender_LOD.la intern/ghost/libblender_GHOST.la intern/string/libblender_STR.la intern/guardedalloc/libblender_guardedalloc.la intern/bmfont/libblender_BMF.la intern/container/libblender_CTR.la intern/memutil/libblender_MEM.la intern/iksolver/libblender_IK.la intern/moto/libblender_MT.la intern/SoundSystem/libsoundsystem.la -lpython2.2 -lm -lGLU -lGL -lX11 -lXext -lutil -ldl -lstdc++ -lSDL -ljpeg -lpng -lpthread -lz -L/usr/lib -Wl,-rpath,/usr/lib -lSDL -lpthread mkdir .libs libtool: link: cannot find the library `' gmake[2]: *** [blender] Error 1 gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/blender-2.30/work/blender-2.30' gmake[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/blender-2.30/work/blender-2.30' make: *** [all] Error 2 !!!

do you have the LANG variable set for your environment? and if so, what is it?
yes, I have LANG set as: es_ES@euro Any test do you want for me to do? Thanks!
i've seen this problem before, but i've forgotten what triggered it. can you try: LANG=C emerge gnomemeeting and see if it helps?
No, it seems the problem is not LANG related... remember, plese! remember! ;) any other thing to test? Thanks
I get this while emerging some packages but they are build correctly (I think). Could it be related? rm: cannot remove `': Invalid argument Any test for me to do? Thanks
And I have this while compiling kde 3.2-beta1 and I don't know if it's related: /bin/sh ../../libtool --silent --mode=compile --tag=CXX g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../.. -I/usr/kde/3.2/include -I/usr/qt/3/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -DQT_THREAD_SUPPORT -D_REENTRANT -Wnon-virtual-dtor -Wno-long-long -Wundef -Wall -W -Wpointer-arith -Wwrite-strings -ansi -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500 -D_BSD_SOURCE -Wcast-align -Wconversion -Wchar-subscripts -DNDEBUG -DNO_DEBUG -O2 -O3 -fomit-frame-pointer -ffast-math -march=athlon-xp -funroll-loops -fprefetch-loop-arrays -pipe -fstrict-aliasing -Wall -Wformat-security -Wmissing-format-attribute -fno-exceptions -fno-check-new -fno-common -DQT_CLEAN_NAMESPACE -DQT_NO_ASCII_CAST -DQT_NO_STL -DQT_NO_COMPAT -DQT_NO_TRANSLATION -c -o ModelinePlugin.lo `test -f 'ModelinePlugin.cpp' || echo './'`ModelinePlugin.cpp rm: cannot remove `': Invalid argument ModelinePlugin.cpp: In member function ` So the char --> ` <-- is implied in both of the errors. Can this (in the two last lines) be the problem? -DQT_NO_TRANSLATION -c -o ModelinePlugin.lo `test -f 'ModelinePlugin.cpp' || echo './'`ModelinePlugin.cpp It seems like a ` used instead of a ' Now... where is this?
luismi: do you use kde-cvs ? if so, please re-emerge libsdl and then see if your other programs can emerge correctly
i'm not using kde-cvs. I'm using kde-3.2-beta1 from gentoo but that's not the problem. I have reemerged libsdl but I cannot build gnomemeeting. The same error.
could you post your /usr/lib/libSDL.la file as an attachment please ?
Created attachment 21501 [details] Here it is.
actually, that seems to be the exact problem ;) *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 34804 ***
