@paully, I don't know what the "stable" fanatism is good for when using the system as a multi-media box. But your try to mix a Gentoo+stable release with an unstable~live~git is surely over the top. I regard Gentooo~unstable a far better choice keeping up with multi-media related security fixes upstream. I have no issues with unmasking boost-1.53 (I don't use old science software) and ffmpeg-1.2.1. My software selection compiles and works without issues:
dev-libs/icu-51.1
dev-libs/boost-1.53.0
dev-util/boost-build-1.53.0
kde-base/ffmpegthumbs-4.10.4
media-plugins/gst-plugins-ffmpeg-0.10.13_p201211
virtual/ffmpeg-9
media-video/ffmpeg-1.2.1
media-video/vlc-2.0.7
sys-devel/gcc-4.7.3
sys-devel/gcc-config-1.8
sys-libs/glibc-2.17
linux-3.9.7 |

Yay!
I did a revdep-rebuild and installed the latest non-git version...
Code: | VLC media player 2.0.7 Twoflower (revision 2.0.6-54-g7dd7e4d) |
...and the videos now all WORK.
Problem. Solved.
Many thanks to all who helped.
Regards

I know this is an old thread, but I'm still seeing this segfault (during emerge). I'm trying to re-merge vlc-2.0.7 after updating
paully, I see that your bug is marked as resolved. Did a fix get into portage? Do I need to unmask one of the masked versions? |

This issue isn't fixed yet, and it's described in detail in this comment from this bug report. It's also discussed in this other forum thread. So far, a workaround is to;
1) emerge --unmerge qtcore qtgui
2) USE="$USE -glib" emerge -a1v qtcore qtgui
3) emerge -av vlc
You should now be able to emerge vlc with your default USE flags enabled, including libnotify and svg, and vlc should run without segmentation faults. Then,
should re-emerge qtcore and qtgui with the glib USE flag enabled again. vlc should also continue working correctly.
Good Luck.. |

Wow, that was pretty elaborate. It almost worked, too. Except that my update world at the end wanted to reinstall vlc based on the re-merged qtcore and qtgui. That didn't work out, so I'm back where I was, but I guess I understand it a little better. I do have a working vlc installed, so I shouldn't complain too much. (Actually, I think I turned a video codec I needed back on as part of the process, so there's a silver lining.) I voted for the bug on Bugzilla.
Edit: Somehow, after I finished my world update (skipping vlc) and rebuilt packages depending on preserved libraries, emerge doesn't feel the need to re-merge vlc anymore. I guess I'll call that a win. |
