Recently my current version of eog has been "quitting unexpectedly" with no useful debug output. Went to update it, got this: checking for XML::Parser... configure: error: XML::Parser perl module is required for intltool the upgrade to dev-lang/perl-5.8.6-r1 broke irssi, too: irssi: symbol lookup error: irssi: undefined symbol: Perl_Gthr_key_ptr rebuilding irssi fixed the above problem (probably via Configure leaving something out in the rebuild -- I haven't looked at this in more detail and don't have time right now) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge eog or 1. irssi Portage 2.0.51-r8 (default-linux/amd64/2004.3, gcc-3.4.3, glibc-2.3.4.20041102-r0, 2.6.9-gentoo-r6 x86_64) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.9-gentoo-r6 x86_64 AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 246 Gentoo Base System version 1.6.6 Python: dev-lang/python-2.3.4 [2.3.4 (#1, Sep 1 2004, 23:34:52)] ccache version 2.3 [enabled] dev-lang/python: 2.3.4 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.59-r5 sys-devel/automake: 1.8.5-r1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.15.92.0.2-r1 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.2-r5 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.8.1-r1 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64 ~amd64" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-march=k8 -O2 -pipe" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.3/env /usr/kde/3.3/share/config /usr/kde/3.3/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/share/config /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/init.d /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-march=k8 -O2 -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs autoconfig ccache distlocks sandbox" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://distfiles.gentoo.org http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo" MAKEOPTS="-j3" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="amd64 X aac acpi aim alsa berkdb bitmap-fonts cddb cdr crypt cups dvd dvdr f77 fam fbcon flac fortran gdbm gif gimpprint gpm gtk gtk2 imagemagick imap imlib java javascript joystick jp2 jpeg kerberos lzw lzw-tiff mad mikmod multilib mysql ncurses nptl nptlonly nvidia oggvorbis opengl oss pam pdflib perl png python readline samba sdl slang spell ssl tcltk tcpd threads tiff truetype usb userlocales xine xml xml2 xmms xpm xprint xrandr xv xvid zlib"
you need to rebuild your perl modules as the ebuild mentions at the end. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 41124 ***
