Hi,

I just updated dbus and it warned that I should run revdep-rebuild , so I did.

It found a couple of broken libs, then at [78%] the cpu usage went 100% the temps started going into the red and impossible to kill it.

closing the terminal did not stop it , neither did shutting down X.

ps showed the runaway process to be lddlibc4 which continued to fail to respond to killall and kill -9.

Only solution reboot Not happy. :evil: :evil:

It claims to be rewritten version , it is known to be unstable ?

TIA, Gentree. 8)

# equery belongs lddlibc4
[ Searching for file(s) lddlibc4 in *... ]
sys-libs/glibc-2.7-r1 (/usr/bin/lddlibc4)

so, that's probably not revdep-rebuild's fault.

[edit] Well, not directly it's fault.

well I just rebuilt glibc and that no longer shows as a stalled process but revdep still shits out 78%.

Crap , time for another reboot. :roll:

This is just like using windows. :P

OK, after repairing a few holes in my fs I used the old version in /usr/lib/gentoolkit/bin/revdep-rebuild

That managed to get through the job without screwing my system.

Now what was I doing before that time waster ...?

hi!

similar error here:

http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-672371-highlight-ldlinux.html

might also be related...

@Gentree i also tried to find an old version of revdep-rebuidl at the location you posted. but it is not there... is there a way to get this version also (expect emerging an older version of gentoolkit)??

http://sources.gentoo.org/viewcvs.py/gentoo-x86/

;)

I saw a message during building the package that said if there were problems the old version was at that location. Maybe you need to install an older gentoolkit first if yours is a recent installation.

Otherwise , why not use an older package if the current one is broken?

hmmm, ok, i dont think that the package is broken, cause it runs perfect before todays update.

which version do you use exactly?

shouldn't we open a bugreport for this issue?

Code:
bash-3.2#etcat -v gentoolkit
[ Results for search key           : gentoolkit
[ Candidate applications found : 7 ]

 Only printing found installed programs.

*  app-portage/gentoolkit :
        [   ] 0.2.0-r3 (0) OVERLAY
        [   ] 0.2.3-r1 (0)
        [ ~ ] 0.2.3.1 (0)
        [ ~ ] 0.2.4_pre7 (0)
        [M  ] 0.2.4_pre8 (0)
        [ ~ ] 0.2.4_rc2 (0)
        [ ~I] 0.2.4_rc3 (0)


at the time of the above post I was using _rc2 , the previous version that was retained would have come from -pre7

As for bug reports, I have given my need for abuse from those who prefer to flame than to fix thier screw ups. I leave that pleasure to others now.

hope the info is useful.

0.2.4_rc3


that's a **masked** package! I think you should
file a bug report - that's what software testers
are for :)

hi albright!

already done: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=213659

the developers told me that this segfault can be safely ignored...


EDIT: a developer told me to install the 0.2.4_rc3 and run revdep-rebuild with some parameters. take a look at the bugreport... it seems to be fixed!
