I don't know why, but after login in skype and tryng to open a chat windows (look @ code), to make a call or open the options window, skype crash with this message:

Code: Select all

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'Skype::Exceptions::GetObjectError'
what():  Chat::byUser

I have tried to compile skype either with and without "qt-static" useflags.

This is my system configuration and libs version:

Skype version 1.4.0.118 and 1.4.0.99.

kernel: gentoo-sources 2.6.23. preempt
x11-libs/qt-4.3.1-r1
kde 3.5.7
dbus-1.0.2-r2
libsigc++2.0.18

P.S. I have alreadt tried to delete ~/.Skype/ directory, but the problems it's always the same!

May you add this line to /etc/make.conf

out of curiosity, what is this supposed to do and how should it help?

In my useflags there are:
qt3,
qt4,
qt3support.

EDIT: ok... added

Code: Select all

ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS="adpcm alaw copy dshare dsnoop extplug file hooks ladspa lfloat linear meter mulaw multi null rate route share shm"

to /etc/make.conf

and rebuild alsa-lib solve the problem! Tnx you very much tw04l124.

Works for me too. However I did not need the qt4 use flag.
