After upgrading media-libs/libdv to 0.102 I surely ran revdep-rebuild! So I thought everything would be fine. But I was wrong. Tonight, as I wanted to view a DVD on my laptop mplayer didn't start... mplayer: error while loading shared libraries: libdv.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory hmmm... I restarted revdep-rebuild and it reported that everything was fine... Very strange I thought until I ran 'ldd /usr/bin/mplayer' ldd reported that the libdv library wasn't found, but... the return code was 0 !!! So, I think revdep-rebuild looks at the return code of ldd first. I would do so... So I assume, there is a bug in ldd. Looking for ldd binary I found, that it is located in sys-libs/glibc-2.3.4.20040808-r1 and that it is a sh-script! I did look into it, but was to tired to get it... AND I WANTED TO VIEW THIS MOVIE!!! Ok, I recompiled mplayer directly and it seems to be ok now. But how do I know, that other packages are ok also? In fact, I already found at least one package, which is involved also: transcode Here is, what ldd says: # ldd `which tcextract` linux-gate.so.1 => (0xffffe000) libdv.so.2 => not found libglib-1.2.so.0 => /usr/lib/libglib-1.2.so.0 (0x40038000) libtheora.so.0 => /usr/lib/libtheora.so.0 (0x4005e000) libvorbis.so.0 => /usr/lib/libvorbis.so.0 (0x40084000) libogg.so.0 => /usr/lib/libogg.so.0 (0x400ba000) libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x400bf000) libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x400e2000) libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x40136000) libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x4013a000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000) I decided to do an 'emerge -e world' this weekend... just to be sure. You need more infos? Just ask... and hope, I am able to reinitiate the problem after recompiling mplayer... or world. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.emerge --oneshot =media-libs/libdv-0.99-r1 2.emerge --oneshot media-video/mplayer 3.emerge --oneshot =media-libs/libdv-0.102 4.ldd `which mplayer` Actual Results: ldd recognizes that there is a missing library but doesn't return an error code. Expected Results: ldd should return error code.

sounds similar to what's described in bug #80455 to me
Olaf, you are right! The revdep-rebuild script as attached in bug #62644 comment #24 does the trick. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 80455 ***
