I ran into a problem tonight that I was able to resolve, but wonder if there's a bug. When I attempted to build dev-libs/glib, it failed with | Code: | * Updating GSettings schemas ... [ !! ]
>>> Regenerating /etc/ld.so.cache...
>>> Original instance of package unmerged safely.
* Updating GSettings schemas ... [ !! ]
* abi_x86_64.amd64: running multilib_pkg_postinst
* Updating GIO modules cache ...
/usr/bin/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gio-querymodules: error while loading shared libraries: libffi.so.7: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory |
So I looked to see what package owns x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gio-querymodules, and to my surprise, it's dev-libs/glib. So now I'm kind of stuck. I figured I'll have to find libffi.so.7 somewhere, when I noticed there's a dev-lib/libffi-compat ebuild. I built that and sure enough, it gives me libffi.so.7, which then allows me to install dev-libs/glib.
Should the dev-libs/glib have handled this automatically? |

So then I removed libffi-compat after rebuilding glib and got | Code: | !!! existing preserved libs:
>>> package: dev-libs/libffi-compat-3.3-r2
* - /usr/lib64/libffi.so.7
* - /usr/lib64/libffi.so.7.1.0
* used by /usr/lib64/libgobject-2.0.so.0.7800.6 (dev-libs/glib-2.78.6)
|
What, what? Ok, tried rebuilding glib again and this time it worked, but still gives | Code: | !!! existing preserved libs:
>>> package: dev-libs/libffi-compat-3.3-r2
* - /usr/lib64/libffi.so.7
* - /usr/lib64/libffi.so.7.1.0
* used by /usr/lib64/libgobject-2.0.so.0.7800.6 (dev-libs/glib-2.78.6)

So how do I rebuild glib so it uses libffi.so.8, which does exist in /usr/lib64? |
