Hi all,

Im doing a brand new x86 intstall and as soon as the base system was in place upgraded from gcc-3.3 to 3.4 by following the guide. Now im trying to emerge KDE and im getting that nasty error above. Here's more:

Code:

libtool: link: `/usr/lib/libGL.la' is not a valid libtool archive
make[3]: *** [kcm_info.la] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/kcontrol-3.4.3/work/kcontrol-3.4.3/kcontrol/info'

Have tried

Code:

~ # fix_libtool_files.sh 3.3


and

Code:

# revdep-rebuild --library libstdc++.so.5 -- -p -v
# revdep-rebuild --library libstdc++.so.5


but it no worky!

I also ran this, just to see...

Code:

~ # file /usr/lib/libGL.la
/usr/lib/libGL.la: empty


Does anyone know how to get me out of this mess?

Thx!

I did the same thing when I changed my CHOSTS setting in /etc/make.conf. I was in the process of an install when I did this, so I started over with a different stage tarball more suited for my CPU and I was working after that.

Actually, for me at least, it seems to be an ATI issue. I found this in Google (god the site search here is lousy..) https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-2296485.html

The fix is (apparently)

Code:

opengl-update xorg-x11

...continue emerging packages

opengl-update ati


I'm still emerging packages, so can't verify that it will work but the guys in the thread linked above seem happy with the results.

This happens when you use a different opengl then the one provided by xorg-x11, but ati, or nvidia, etc.
Before you run emerge do
Code:
opengl-update xorg-x11

Emerge the program and then switch back to the proprietary GL.

This is a pain in the ass, eveytime I emerge certain things I'll have to switch to xorg-x11 and then back to ATI?
Isn't there a work around for this?

You think *that's* a pain in the ass? Well, as it turns out, this works perfectly -- as long as the apps you emerge like this don't need to be 3d accelerated... For example, xscreensaver emerged just fine, but the KDE screensaver app (which uses xscreensaver of course), needed this trick for it to emerge properly for me... Now, if I load up xscreensaver by itself (in TWM or whatever), all the openGL screensavers work like they should on an X700 mobile card, but if I try the same screensavers in KDE, even after using either eselect opengl set ati or opengl-update ati, they run with no acceleration whatsoever...

Therefore, it seems this bug still needs to be fixed if we actually want any acceleration in the apps that have this problem. :( :(

So this is not SOLVED and is not even a proper work around. There must be a better solution.

Oh you've noticed that as well ? ;)

best trick I've found is use googles site option:

Code:
site:forums.gentoo.org "/usr/lib/libGL.la"


LOL Nicks link post to a thread where the last post is mine : Google 1 - Alzheimer 0

Sure the files invalid it's zero lenth! I deleted it last time but that was not a kde problem for me. Top of page 2 in the link suggests giving it some correct data. That may be the best way.
