Problem installing the Clementine slackbuild

Downloaded the slackbuild and tried to run it, but its giving me an error that I don't really understand.

These are the last few lines of the terminal:

Code:

Not really sure what this is telling me. Any help?

Is libxml installed?

The latest "stable" libxml2 is completely broken without the patch that can be found in -current.

I don't use -current. How can I pull the patch?

Just download the pkg in -current.

installed that package, getting the same error with Clementine

Notice that it is libgstreamer that wants the broken symbols, leading me to suspect that it was compiled against the broken libxml2. Basically anything that was compiled against libxml2 while the broken version was on your machine is now poisoned and will need to be rebuilt.

The upstream sources have been broken since November 4th, but were "fixed" with a patch posted to the mailing list a day or two later. It burned me, too.

reinstalled gstreamer using -current and then tried clementine, it compiled this time. Thanks!
