SDL on amd64?

[iaw]

I am trying to recompile kdeaddons-3.5.9.

checking for SDL - version >= 1.2.0... no
*** Could not run SDL test program, checking why...
*** The test program compiled, but did not run. This usually means
*** that the run-time linker is not finding SDL or finding the wrong
*** version of SDL. If it is not finding SDL, you'll need to set your
*** LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable, or edit /etc/ld.so.conf to point
*** to the installed location Also, make sure you have run ldconfig if that
*** is required on your system
***
*** If you have an old version installed, it is best to remove it, although
*** you may also be able to get things to work by modifying LD_LIBRARY_PATH
configure: error: --with-sdl was given, but test for SDL failed

so, I tried emerging either the latest or the prerelease of libsdl. Doesn't work. The ebuilds give me a nice sdl-config executable, but nothing that seems like a library. Nothing matches ldconfig -p | grep libsdl, and nothing called libsdl with an so extension exists anywhere in the file system (so I would not know what to add to ld.so.conf, either). and yes, I did run ldconfig.

what exactly should kdeaddons be finding? help appreciated.

The library is actually libSDL - i.e. with the SDL in uppercase.

I had a similar problem a few days ago on my x86 box, but the problem wasn't related to SDL; rather, it was with libslang. Try compiling and running the following program and see what the output is:

You can instead just run revdep-rebuild...

[iaw]

holy mess.

indeed, the libslang-utf8.so library is missing. oddly, revdep rebuild does not want to reemerge slang, but

emerge --oneshot -p =media-libs/libggi-2.2.2 =media-libs/libggiwmh-0.3.2 =sys-devel/gcc-4.1.2 =media-libs/xine-lib-1.1.10.1-r1 =media-video/xine-ui-0.99.5 =kde-base/kdeaddons-3.5.9

does libslang belong elsewhere?

so revdep-rebuild is necessary (though I am hesitant using it, as it always is rebuilding my C compiler---one of the oldest gentoo bugs around). alas, revdep-rebuild cannot complete, either, and it dies on the first bite, libggi:

this looks weird, because x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc exists just fine:

# which x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc
/usr/X11R6/bin/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc

I am sorry to bug you guys with such detailed questions. if something looks obvious, please let me know.
