I unmerged kde and everything I had installed related to it.

For some reason XMMS won't emerge now. It says it needs the libarts library. I have -kde -arts -qt -qtmt in my use variable in make.conf so I'm not sure what the deal is.

My USE variable:

USE="-kde -qt -arts -qtmt gnome gtk alsa mmx gphoto2 X dga opengl xv fbcon evo gtkhtml avi mpeg xmms oggvorbis mozilla spell truetype xml xml2 pdflib cups"

The error during an emerge xmms is:

Quote:

mkdir .libs
libtool: link: cannot find the library `/usr/kde/3/lib/libartsc.la'
make[4]: *** [xmms] Error 1
make[4]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/xmms-1.2.7-r8/work/xmms-1.2.7/xmms'make[3]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/xmms-1.2.7-r8/work/xmms-1.2.7/xmms'make[2]: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2
make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/xmms-1.2.7-r8/work/xmms-1.2.7/xmms'make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/xmms-1.2.7-r8/work/xmms-1.2.7'
make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2


Can anyone help?

well, my rather unsatisfactory answer to the problem was to install the arts library. I don't think xmms needs it but, well, there you go.

Something curious though, I emerged arts, then xmms. For some reason alll my mpegs played in black and white. I then re-emerged smpeg and smpeg-xmms and they're back in colour. Don't ask me why.

Try

Code:

USE="-arts" emerge -p xmms


See if it still lists ARTS (after unmerging ARTS first)

I'm running xmms fine without ARTS (I'm using ALSA)

Think you use OSS-Driver (xmms preferences), or is the alsa plugin driver fixed / working for you?

This way xmms doesn't use native alsa but just its OSS-emulation (/dev/dsp).

I have the solution for the problem in the first post:

I had the same problem; xmms would not re-emerge after I had removed kde & arts (since I had switched to gnome...). The xmms binary would crash so I had to re-install...

Same problem as first post with "emerge xmms", so I figured that some of the libraries xmms depends on still depended on arts (I thought that portage would protect a user from that, but that is another topic).

I searched for the libraries still depending on libarts:

Code:
cd /lib
grep libarts *


Which returned that libraries libaviplay & libSDL (all in various versions) still depended in libarts.

Next step: Get the packages for these libraries with (emerge gentoolkit first if you haven't done that):

Code:
qpkg -fp libaviplay
qpkg -fp libSDL


This learned me that I had to re-emerge avifile & libsdl.
After this I could re-emerge xmms, so I am happily playing MP3s again...
