[gentoo-user] Updated boost to 1.42 + encfs 1.7, killed encfs volume

2011-03-20 Thread Adam Carter
It looks like i've hit this issue;
http://code.google.com/p/encfs/issues/detail?id=60

So i've reinstalled boost 1.41 with;
# emerge =boost-1.41.0-r3
# eselect boost set 1
# emerge encfs

but its still broken, and
$ ldd /usr/bin/encfs | grep boost
libboost_serialization-mt-1_42.so.1.42.0 =
/usr/lib64/libboost_serialization-mt-1_42.so.1.42.0 (0x7fb6314de000)
libboost_serialization-mt-1_41.so.1.41.0 =
/usr/lib64/libboost_serialization-mt-1_41.so.1.41.0 (0x7fb6305c5000)
libboost_filesystem-mt-1_41.so.1.41.0 =
/usr/lib64/libboost_filesystem-mt-1_41.so.1.41.0 (0x7fb6303af000)
libboost_system-mt-1_41.so.1.41.0 =
/usr/lib64/libboost_system-mt-1_41.so.1.41.0 (0x7fb6301ab000)

So i'm assuming the problem is its still loading the v1.42 serialisation
library. What's the correct way to that?


[gentoo-user] LiveDVD-11.0 questions

2011-03-20 Thread Hartmut Figge
Greetings,

| Keep in mind that Gentoo is a rolling release distribution, so the
| LiveDVD is primarily a means to check out if Gentoo is something for
| you, or just to quickly check out a different desktop environment
| than in your installation, etc.

Well, how to select these different desktop environments? :)

I'm thrown to KDE without a possibilty to choose another one except if
using the boot parameter nox, in which case i can use startxfce4.

Furthermore, connecting to my ISP would require the package rp-pppoe
which had to be emerged first. To do that an existing connection is
necessary... *g*

Just log out and select something else from kdm.

That was one of the first things i had tried. It took me to a login
window without a menu.

Now i have looked closer and indeed, there is a button, a tiny one,
which has to be clicked to reveal this menu.

I am not used to xdm, kdm etc and am happy with my icewm invoked with
startx from the console. Maybe i am the only one who had difficulties
with this kdm. *g*

Some package on your machine is still linked against 1.42, though I can't tell
you which one.  Since you just rebuilt encfs, that isn't the guilty one.

IMO the quickest way to find the package that needs rebuilding is:to move or
rename libboost_serialization-mt-1_42.so.1.42.0, and then run ldd again and
see who complains.  Then rebuild the package that contains the complainer.

I'm sure there are more elegant ways, but I think it should work.

Thanks Jorge,

I switched to classic too and now it does not crash - however:

1. When I start kde compositing is disabled.

2. If I click on Resume Compositing, then the first time I try it I get a 
notification saying:  Compositing has been suspended by another application 
and it remains disabled.

3. The second time I try to resume compositing it works!

4. If at that stage I exit/restart KDE compositing is disabled again ... o_O

Why is this happening?  What other application is clashing or causing 
compositing not to take?

BTW, I just tried this on an older Pentium 4 32bit box with an ATI Radeon X600 
(RV380) and it is exhibiting similar symptoms, except that if I try to resume 
compositing a second time kwin crashes.

That ldd output is showing that encfs needs it. I need to find how to build
encfs to ignore the 42 library. I guess i could quickpkg 1.42, unmerge it,
then rebuild encfs, and reinstall the pkg for boost. I'll try that.
