gaim problems

[grepcomputers]

I cheated and used the GRP.

After I do "emerge -k gaim", and then try to run gaim, I get this error:
"gaim: error while loading shared libraries: libpspell.so.15: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"

I did an emerge rsync and got this error during "emerge gaim":
"!!! ERROR net-im/gaim-0.66-r3 failed
!!! Function src_compile Line 53, Exitcode 2
!!! Make failed"

I'm wondering if one of my emerges wrote over the version of libpspell that gaim needed...

any ideas?

thanks...

Someone had a problem like this the other day. Check the gaim dependencies and emerge the spelling packages by themselves.

This should fix any missing library problems.

I unmerged GAIM and gtkspell (the spelling library). Then I tried to install gtkspell (emerge gtkspell) and I get this error:

!!! ERROR: app-text/gtkspell-2.0.2 failed.
!!! Function src_compile, Line 20, Exitcode 2
!!! compile failure

emerge -k gtkspell works (which is wierd, because as far as I can see, they are the same versions, one is just precompiled). However, trying to run gaim gets this error:

gaim: error while loading shared libraries: libpspell.so.15: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

and if I unmerge all and emerge gaim, which emerges gtkspell, I get the same error during the gtkspell install.

argh...

cheers...

I unmerged gaim, and forced an emerge of gaim-0.68-rev2. now it works. however, I get this wierd problem...

I open a window to send and all is good. But if I open another one (ie, another tab), I can no longer type in the message boxes. or select text. but if I remove focus and then restore it, all works again...

cheers...

I had the same exact problem I unmerged gaim then
'emerge aspell gtkspell gaim'
and it worked

just trying to emerge gtkspell on its own gave me the same error it needs aspell first

Thank you so much for helping me out (without knowing it)!!

I've been looking everywhere trying to find a fix to my problem. This took care of it.

Thanks!

emerge aspell gtkspell gaim
indeed did the trick

Thnx!

the 'emerge aspell gtkspell gaim' did NOT do the trick for me

It still breaks on the gtkspell compilation !

yes 'emerge aspell gtkspell gaim' worked for me - however I am unable to use msn....
