Bug 424683 – media-libs/libsdl: /usr/lib/libSDL.so: undefined reference to `_XGetRequest'

• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 423855
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Vladi 2012-07-03 22:59:21 UTC]

xbmc-9999 fails comple unless libsdl is compiled with LDFLAGS="-lX11"

I had to put LDFLAGS="-lX11" and USE="custom-cflags" and recompile libsdl

error:
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/4.5.3/../../../../lib64/libSDL.so: undefined reference to `_XGetRequest'


libsdl:
media-libs/libsdl-1.2.14-r6

xbmc build log:

First of all - don't use pastebins for bugzilla reports.

Second, such error at most suggested to reemerge libsdl.

Third, your "fix" using LDFLAGS to pass libs just makes me cringe.

In the end, either plain INVALID or WORKFORME.

That is unless you can reproduce libsdl being successfully emerged, yet missing the symbol.

1) Please post your `emerge --info' output in a comment.
2) Please attach the entire build log to this bug report.

As I already said, with such error xbmc doesn't matter.

Only libsdl matters and that only if you can reproduce a successful build of libsdl (with the original ebuild), while 'ldd -r' still shows missing symbols in it afterwards.
If you can, attach build log of libsdl (with the original ebuild; verbose, if necessary).

[Comment 6 Samuli Suominen (RETIRED) 2012-07-06 08:00:18 UTC]

Very much like bug 423855. Downgrading libX11 is not supported scenario. Upgrade back to libX11 1.5.0 or above and recompile libsdl against it.

I dont think that this is a duplicate.

my "nx"-problem happens with libX11-1.5.0

`emerge -e libsdl` if in doubt
