[xsilentmurmurx]

hey everyone

I have Gentoo with Kernel 2.6.34-r6 running on a VM I built in Parallels Desktop on my Macbook. Everything is running fine but when I try to emerge VLC and after all of the deps have emerged successfully, VLC will emerge till its almost done and then all of a sudden it crashes and gives me the following error:

Code: Select all

any suggestions on how I should go about fixing this issue?

Re-emerge x11-libs/libxcb or try lafilefixer.

Moved from Installing Gentoo to Multimedia as it fits better here.

Hi,

looks like the emerge is missing libGL.so -->

/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.4.3/../../../../i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find -lGL

I have checked which package has the libGL.so file on my installation and I have found two (???):

Code: Select all

/usr/lib64/opengl/nvidia/lib/libGL.so
--> x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers

Code: Select all

/usr/lib64/opengl/xorg-x11/lib/libGL.so
--> media-libs/mesa

Maybe you should try to emerge the mesa package again and if you have a Nvidia card, also reemerge the nvidia driver.

You have 2 because the nvidia-drivers opengl basically replaces the mesa one. When you do "eselect opengl set nvidia", it updates the links to point to nvidia opengl instead of mesa(Xorg). Same thing applies when using closed source ati-drivers.
