gnucash 2.6.6 built from slackbuilds.org
gnucash: error while loading shared libraries: libicui18n.so.51: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
It turns out that webkitgtk which needs libjpeg is not finding that.
@frushiyama: you might need to rebuild webkitgtk against libjpeg-turbo. That is a very long build, so it should be worth trying to create the proper symlink for libwebkitgtk to use libjpeg-turbo. You need to double check the actual soname that the webkitgtk lib is looking for:
One issue here is whether the turbo-jpeg lib is compatible with the old jpeg lib. I have doubts, but it seems worth a try. Also, may need to look at whether turbo-jpeg should be built with the compat switches (--with-jpeg8 and perhaps --with-jpeg7) on; currently it is built without these and I suspect these may be needed. If creating the symlink fails to fix linkage for webkitgtk, then we might look at rebuilding/installing turbo-jpeg with the compat switches on.
@schmaltzer: sorry, I must have been typing when you submitted your reply. didn't mean to step on your toes.
Had the same problem, created a symlink from libicui18n.so to libicui18n.so.51 ( there were 3 others with similar names that also needed doing ) that then got me past that and webkitgtk then spat out an error about an undefined symbol. Rebuilt webkitgtk from slackbuilds and that got gnucash back up and running.

Reason: add more detail
Because of the glibc update I completely stripped all my SBo packages and reverted everything back to default.
System works fine, but it's going to be a few days till I can rebuild everything. Going to try kernel 4.0 as well.
Xfce-volumed however is in fact non-working. It complains about GStreamer, but it is installed. I might do a system refresh due to the massive update just in case.
Distribution: Slackware64-current with "True Multilib" and KDE4Town.

Rep:
Xine is the only video player that works. All the others crash.
Just for chuckles I tried running MPlayer from the command line and here is the error:
Quote:
Player interrupted by signal 4 in module: demux_open
- MPlayer crashed by an 'Illegal Instruction'.
It usually happens when you run it on a CPU different than the one it was
compiled/optimized for.
Verify this!
- MPlayer crashed by bad usage of CPU/FPU/RAM.
Recompile MPlayer with --enable-debug and make a 'gdb' backtrace and
disassembly. Details in DOCS/HTML/en/bugreports_what.html#bugreports_crash.
- MPlayer crashed. This shouldn't happen.
It can be a bug in the MPlayer code _or_ in your drivers _or_ in your
gcc version. If you think it's MPlayer's fault, please read
DOCS/HTML/en/bugreports.html and follow the instructions there. We can't and
won't help unless you provide this information when reporting a possible bug.
BTW, SMPlayer can't seem to find the proper version number of MPlayer. Is the file name used in the 21 April update of MPlayer correct?

i also delete some of my SBo (wsr, msb, csb) packages and start with new since some of them are broken due to boost, icu4c, and many other library major changes
only problem I had was resetting it to use networkmanager. But I did install-new first then updated. everything works fine. I did delete my ~/.kde folder. the phonon multimedia is screwy does not find the play back sounds. as will all the latest kde current the multimedia manager in settings is screwy. but sounds comes out of where I want it. this is multi lib also. I been using the same slackware and multi-lib update script I wrote now since 13.0 big thing slackpkg install-new before slackpkg upgrade-all this was a huge update I treated it like a distro upgrade. And make sure any builds from Slackbuilds get updated. so remember to set that in your /etc/slackpkg/blacklist you want them upgraded if they are pulled into current.
I'm seeing an issue with running compat32 3d video applications. I think I see the problem, it's not loading the 32bit module for my intel video. I'm just not quite sure where to go with it from here. Any suggestions on where to look? I'm running the 4.0 kernel but I don't think that's got anything to do with it, 32bit 3d video was working fine with the 4.0 kernel before the update.
