Edit: see below - ld.gold caused this

I've recently become unable to run any Qt4 program whatsoever. I tried depcleaning/reinstalling all of dev-qt/*:4 but that didn't fix it. Also wiped out my ~/.kde4 and any qt config around the system I had left over.

I'm thinking the recent Xorg 1.16->1.17 update might have caused it; haven't tried downgrading that yet but I'm about to.

This is what I get when running qtconfig:
Code:
(gdb) run
Starting program: /usr/bin/qtconfig
warning: Could not load shared library symbols for linux-vdso.so.1.
Do you need "set solib-search-path" or "set sysroot"?

A similar crash happens if I try to run Mumble (SIGABRT straight away). Changing `eselect qtgraphicssystem` doesn't help, though it does change where the crash happens.

Only Qt4 is broken, Qt5 and everything else works fine.

If I try to run a KDE 4 app, it spawns kdeinit stuck at 100% CPU and does nothing. I'm having similar problems building Calligra.

Hi,

I have a kde-4.14.3 desktop, qt-4.8.6 and xorg-server 1.17.0 working fine.
Maybe xorg-server is not the culprit ...

I've downgraded xorg-server now and it's still broken, so you're right. Could have been a latent bug in the GCC 4.8 -> 4.9 update for all I know.

Still, it's weirdly specific that Qt is crashing because of a null X11 pointer.

Another thing I just thought to try is ruling out anything from the environment, no progress:
Code:
~ $ env -i DISPLAY=$DISPLAY XAUTHORITY=$XAUTHORITY strace `which qtconfig`

[...]

open("/usr/lib64/qt4/plugins/imageformats/libqtga.so", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 8
read(8, "\177ELF\2\1\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\3\0>\0\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"..., 832) = 832

I don't think it's 4.8/4.9 related. I tried to rebuild world with 4.9, got the crash, rebuilt everything again with 4.8 and it's still happening.

I do think it might be related to the Xorg update, but on my laptop it's running with 1.17.1 and it keeps working, and it worked at first on my desktop as well. It might be the new header files that came with the update, I'm pretty sure it was rebuilding Qt that killed it.

I'm not the only one with this problem? That's great and sad to hear at the same time...

Going to avoid updating my laptop in the meantime.

Well, this is strange. Building and installing Qt4 manually to /usr/local works.

I configured it minimally as
Code:
./configure -no-cups -no-glib -no-gtkstyle -no-opengl -no-openvg -no-nis -no-declarative -no-multimedia -no-webkit -no-qt3support -nomake examples -nomake demos -nomake docs
gmake -j5
gmake install


This installs to /usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.8.6 and doesn't interfere with anything else.
Code:
% qtconfig
zsh: segmentation fault (core dumped)  qtconfig
% LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.8.6/lib qtconfig
(this works)


It doesn't seem USE related, I tried a lot of combinations including disabling everything.

I'm not sure what finally did it, but Qt4 works again for me.

Here's what I did:

  1. completely removed every Qt4 package and everything depending on them
  2. set up these files:

    • /etc/portage/env/debug2.conf
      Code:
      CFLAGS="-pipe -march=x86-64 -mtune=generic -ggdb -O1"
      CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
      FEATURES="${FEATURES} splitdebug installsources"

    • /etc/portage/package.env/qt4.env
      Code:
      dev-qt/qtcore:4 debug2.conf
      dev-qt/qttranslations:4 debug2.conf
      dev-qt/qtscript:4 debug2.conf
      dev-qt/qtgui:4 debug2.conf
      dev-qt/qtsql:4 debug2.conf
      dev-qt/qt3support:4 debug2.conf

    • /etc/portage/package.use/qt4
      Code:
      dev-qt/qtcore:4 debug -abi_x86_32 glib qt3support
      dev-qt/qttranslations:4 debug -abi_x86_32
      dev-qt/qtscript:4 debug -abi_x86_32
      dev-qt/qtgui:4 debug -abi_x86_32 glib -gtkstyle qt3support -egl
      dev-qt/qtsql:4 debug -abi_x86_32 qt3support
      dev-qt/qt3support:4 debug -abi_x86_32


  3. switched from gold to the bfd linker (gcc-4.9.2, binutils-2.25, glibc-2.20-r2, linux-headers-3.19)


My full USE flags on the packages:
Code:
[ebuild   R    ] dev-qt/qtcore-4.8.6-r1:4::gentoo  USE="debug exceptions glib iconv icu pch qt3support ssl (-aqua)" ABI_X86="(64) -32 (-x32)" 0 KiB
[ebuild   R    ] dev-qt/qttranslations-4.8.6-r1:4::gentoo  ABI_X86="(64) -32 (-x32)" 0 KiB
[ebuild   R    ] dev-qt/qtscript-4.8.6-r1:4::gentoo  USE="debug exceptions iconv jit pch (-aqua)" ABI_X86="(64) -32 (-x32)" 0 KiB
[ebuild   R    ] dev-qt/qtsql-4.8.6-r1:4::gentoo  USE="debug exceptions mysql pch qt3support sqlite (-aqua) -freetds -oci8 -odbc -postgres" ABI_X86="(64) -32 (-x32)" 0 KiB
[ebuild   R    ] dev-qt/qtgui-4.8.6-r1:4::gentoo  USE="accessibility cups debug exceptions glib mng pch qt3support tiff xv (-aqua) -egl -gtkstyle -nas -nis -trace -xinerama" ABI_X86="(64) -32 (-x32)" 0 KiB
[ebuild   R    ] dev-qt/qt3support-4.8.6-r1:4::gentoo  USE="accessibility debug exceptions pch (-aqua)" ABI_X86="(64) -32 (-x32)" 0 KiB


After emerging dev-qt/qtgui:4 and its dependencies above, qtconfig works again. I installed the rest of Qt and kdelibs with these settings (the debug useflag in particular must match), and KDE seems to work fully.

One more thing: if you have the old 0.10 slot gstreamer installed, unmerge it temporarily before installing qtwebkit with it disabled, the configure script autodetects and enables it on its own. This works around "media-sound/amarok with media-libs/phonon-gstreamer-4.8.0 - amarok hangs at startup when using gstreamer backend" which in turn seems to have fixed the bug "The playback occasionally stops when automatically switching to the next song on the playlist" for me.

Argh... that fixed it. The linker thing. I switched mine to ld.bfd and recompiled all the dev-qt/*:4 I had installed, and now it suddenly works.

Good to know that was the actual culprit. I couldn't bring myself to narrow it down any further, but I'm not overly fond of the extra ~800 megabytes of debugging info and de-optimization.
