I ran "emerge -P" (pretty stupid, I must admid :oops: )
I think it removed an older version of "libg" and also "gtk+"

After the "emerge -P" I wasn't able to run mozilla and xmms because they depended on "libg" so I emerge the needed library.

Now mozilla and xmms work again :)

But gkrellm doesn't work. When I run it, it gives this error:
Code:

./gkrellm2: error while loading shared libraries: libgobject-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


HOW DO I SOLVE THIS?!?!?

please help me I'm desperate...

Does emerge gkrellm not work? It should emerge any libraries it needs.

Try emerging libraries that were deleted during emerge -P

I tried that but now I have another problem:

I removed gkrellm by:
"emerge -C gkrellm"
And added it again by:
"emerge gkrellm"

Everything wend OK

But now I'm trying to run gkrellm but I can't find the executable "gkrellm2" ???

when I run:
/ # find . -name gkrellm*
it finds gkrellmd (and a lot of docs and stuff) but not a trace of the gkrellm client

Does anybody know how I run the gkrellm client???

For my default install of gkrellm2 it can e found at /usr/bin/gkrellm2.
To give you a little more concise listing than the find command try:
Code:

# whereis gkrellm2


I am able to start it just like you say with:
Code:

# gkrellm2


If that still doesn't work the only thing I would know what to do would be unmerge gkrellm then reemerge it. Once it is done emerging scroll up the terminal window until you see something like this:

Code:
>>> Merging app-admin/gkrellm-2.1.1 to /
--- /usr/
--- /usr/bin/
>>> /usr/bin/gkrellm2
>>> /usr/bin/gkrellmd
--- /usr/include/
--- /usr/include/gkrellm2/
>>> /usr/include/gkrellm2/gkrellm.h
>>> /usr/include/gkrellm2/gkrellm-public-proto.h
--- /usr/share/
--- /usr/share/man/
continued ...................................................


This shows that the program was installed in /usr/bin/
