 Posted: Tue Feb 22, 2005 5:37 pm Post subject: xorg-x11-6.8.2 removed my /usr/lib symlink |
 |
|
last night, emerging xorg-x11-6.8.2 on a newly installed amd64 system, emerge puked in the postinstall process -- seems somewhere in the ebuild for xorg-x11-6.8.2 my /usr/lib symlink to /usr/lib64 was removed. not really nice, i thought. results in the ebuild failing, since "emerge" is no longer in my path. putting the link back manually, of course, results in a useable system, and, as it turns out, xorg is installed ok. just seems like a bit of an issue.

| Wow.. that sucks. Make sure you file a bug report, if you haven't already done so... http://bugs.gentoo.org |

| There has been/still is a bug in the 6.8.2 xorg build which blows up the lib/lib64 symlinks. This should have been fixed on feb 14th by a fix eradicator checked in. Seems like the problem persists. Please be sure to file a detailed bug report about this and I guess it would be a good idea to send a short mail explaining the situation to the Gentoo-AMD64 mailing list or to eradicator@gentoo.org so this can get fixed as soon as possible. |

I have problems with various symlinks, too. xorg-x11-2.8.2 broke them. Now I tried some things to repair my system. I downgraded to xorg-2.8.0. After a bit of fixing here my dirs/ simlinks:
| Code: |

/usr/lib is a dir now. Is that right?
What's with /usr/lib32 and /usr/lib64 and /usr/X11R6
I assume I have to copy the content of /usr/lib to /usr/lib64 and symlink /usr/lib to /usr/lib64. Is that right?
Next odd things:
| Code: |
ls /usr/lib64/ -l
total 3214
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 352 Feb 22 01:30 X11
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 31 Feb 23 12:10 libGL.a -> /usr/lib/opengl/ati/lib/libGL.a
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1417668 Feb 23 12:09 libGL.a.bak
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 745 Feb 21 05:30 libGL.la
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 32 Feb 23 12:10 libGL.so -> /usr/lib/opengl/ati/lib/libGL.so
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Feb 23 12:10 libGL.so.1 -> libGL.so.bak
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 952219 Feb 23 12:09 libGL.so.bak

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 Feb 21 11:46 libXaw3d.so -> libXaw3d.so.8.0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 Feb 21 11:46 libXaw3d.so.8 -> libXaw3d.so.8.0
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 350640 Feb 21 11:46 libXaw3d.so.8.0
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 80 Feb 22 01:30 modules
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 48 Feb 21 05:30 tls

I changed the libGL.a and the libGL.so symlink because these were broken. Is this correct now? |

After emerging xorg-x11 6.8.2 (that was the only change on the system), gcc doesn't work anymore.
And yeah, I am having all the same problems as you do.
In any case, emerge 6.8.2->6.8.0 does not return the system into the same state as it was before emerging 6.8.2, that should probably be also bugrepped?

Hmm, I am wondering if adding all those new dirs that used to be symlinks to the path variables might solve the problems that the 6.8.2 causes?

Any ideas how to set this to right? I just tried a vmware gsx install and it went nuts on me...
 Any ideas? |

I would be glad if some with a 100% working system without having emerged xorg-2.8.2 but xorg-2.8.0 could do the following and post the result:
| Code: |
# ls /usr -l
# ls /usr/lib64 -l
|
If I understand jimbothigpen properly /usr/lib should be a simlink not a dir...
I also have problems with my xorg:
startx works, xdm works.
/etc/init.d/xdm start
works (with kde-3.3.2)
BUT: if I use kdm I get with
/etc/init.d/xdm start
the kdm-login manager. As soon as I want to start kde the x-server crashes. An as I said: no problem with xdm.
If I load "dri" in my xorg.conf the x-server won't start and crashes my system.
I wonder if all this has ado with broken symlinks etc...

I think one of the ways to go around it is unmerge xorg. Look in the stage tarball. Move stuff around so it is the same way as in stage tarball. Emerge xorg back. (quickpkg before unmerging).
But... Im too lazy to try. Some stuff works, and I'll go around fixing later.

Also I noticed such a thing:
| Code: | #gcc-config -l
[1] x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-3.4.2
[2] x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-3.4.2-hardened
[3] x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-3.4.2-hardenednossp
[4] x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-3.4.3 *
[5] x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-3.4.3-hardened
[6] x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-3.4.3-hardenednopie
[7] x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-3.4.3-hardenednossp
bash-2.05b# gcc-config 1
* Switching to x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-3.4.2 compiler...
* Your gcc has a bug with GCC_SPECS.
* Please re-emerge gcc.
* http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=68395
gcc: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/3.4.2/: Is a directory [ ok ]
* If you intend to use the gcc from the new profile in an already
* running shell, please remember to do:
* # source /etc/profile
bash-2.05b# gcc-config 4
* Switching to x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-3.4.3 compiler... [ ok ]
* If you intend to use the gcc from the new profile in an already
* running shell, please remember to do:
* # source /etc/profile
|
Update: moving lib to lib64, and making lib -> lib64 solves the gcc problem.

In /usr, lib64 should be a symlink to lib. Somehow xorg 6.8.2 managed to make it a real directory where it put its files. 
Ok, here is how i solved this problem.
Make backups of your /usr/lib and /usr/lib64 directories. Now copy all the files that are in /usr/lib64 to /usr/lib including directories! | Code: | | cp -R /usr/lib64/* /usr/lib/ |
Next is to mv the old lib64 directory to lib64-old and make a symlinkNow all should be working again as normal also xorg finding the fglrx module 
Directory listing, working  | Code: | lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 Feb 18 11:59 X11R6 -> ../usr

infirit,
shouldn't the symlink cmd be the other way 'round? If I understand your /usr directory listing correctly, I think it should look like this:
| Code: |
ln -s /usr/lib /usr/lib64
|
I took your suggestion and I was able to emerge qt, which was crashing b/c it couldn't find the XRandR, XCursor, etc libs. thanks -- wylbur. |

Oops, sorry about that..... it should be ln -s lib lib64 
I corrected the post to reflect this, thanks for pointing this out

Hrm...
Following along with the "fix", gcc decided to go t*ts up on me! 
Thank god for backups, but I mean... Huh? Why did fixing it break it, and breaking it results in a perfectly decent system... 
Heh... Just addin' my input |
