since the last update of libpng i can't start evolution anymore.
I get the message "libpng error: Incompatible libpng version in application and library".
I have recompiled nearly half of my system to get everyting (kde etc) working again, but with evolution everything fails (I have already nightmares of reading the gentoo maling-list of three days :( ).

I've recompiled the following dependencies of evolution (and, of course evolution itself) without success:
bonobo
gal
gtkheml
oaf
ORBit
libglade
gdk-pixbuf

can anybody give me a hint which of these packages depends on the libpng?

Regards,
Gerald

It appears that there is a shell script to search for files that need to be update/re-emerged...

okay, I ran the scripts, and they gave me a rather long list of packages I have to recompile .... guess it will get late tonight :)

But none of the packages/libraries the scripts listed are related to evolution...
I'll try it anyway, thanks.

Hehehe... I had the same problem too. I had done it all by hand (with ldd /usr/lib/* | grep libpng.so.2 ... etc) until I had everything. A lot of the problems that I had were actually not related to the package installed, but related to the package requires of the package requires installed... etc... :) I don't think that came out ver clear...

kuickshow [requires] imagemagick [requires] ??? [requires] libpng...

so if that third library doesn't work because of libpng... then imagemagick libs won't work...resulting in kuickshow not working...

That was the last file I got working :) Took me forever to get that one done...

Just check out the libs first though and then after you have them updated run the check on binaries... this will stop (as from the previous topics) any false problems...

Hopefully that all made sense... cause I'm not sure if it even made sense to me :)

Wow... how can I sound so vaporish... :) hehehe... sometimes I think they replaced my brain with apple sauce when I was a child...

yeah, just what i thought ... the easiest way will be to do
Code:
emerge --emptytree evolution
... but this will recompile nearly everything ... exactly what I want to avoid.

I'm afraid you indeed will have to re-emerge lots of things.

See bug 1730...
