Things That Won't Run in -Current (21 April 2015).


Running the latest updates in a fresh install, along with a fresh install of the Multilib files.
So far, the following won't work and I have yet to find a fix,

Seamonkey and Firefox issue the same error, e.g.,

Quote:
bash-4.3$ seamonkey
XPCOMGlueLoad error for file /usr/lib64/seamonkey-2.33.1/libxul.so:
/usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.20' not found (required by /usr/lib64/seamonkey-2.33.1/libxul.so)
Couldn't load XPCOM.
bash-4.3$ firefox
XPCOMGlueLoad error for file /usr/lib64/firefox-37.0.2/libxul.so:
/usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.20' not found (required by /usr/lib64/firefox-37.0.2/libxul.so)
Couldn't load XPCOM.

VLC wont' run,

Quote:
bash-4.3$ vlc
VLC media player 2.2.1 Terry Pratchett (Weatherwax) (revision 2.2.1-0-ga425c42)
ALSA lib conf.c:3325snd_config_hooks_call) Cannot open shared library (null)

[00000000012d69a8] core libvlc: Running vlc with the default interface. Use 'cvlc' to use vlc without interface.
Segmentation fault
Now to see what else is, or is not, running.

VLC 2.2.1 runs fine here on my slackware64-current (updated to the latest batch). I watched a movie with it, yesterday evening.
Are you certain that you have installed all the packages that have been added to Slackware-current in this batch?

Have not tested seamonkey or firefox on that desktop (don't use those).

Yes. Reformatted the partition and did a complete install from the 2.5 gig iso you posted yesterday.
Then I downloaded all the fresh multilib files and installed those.


Now Libreoffice won't work,

Quote:
bash-4.3$ loffice
/usr/lib64/libreoffice/program/soffice.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libicuuc.so.51: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Can't get KDE to read a CD (it has been reading for years), and WINE doesn't work.

Doesn't work on my end either.
Clean install of -current, last batch (iso made by myself with your mirror script).

Both "restricted" and normal VLC:
Code:
$vlc
VLC media player 2.2.1 Terry Pratchett (Weatherwax) (revision 2.2.1-0-ga425c42)
Segmentation fault

What's the output of :

$ ls -l /usr/lib64/libstdc++*
and :

Code:
$ ls -l /var/log/packages/gcc*

I am on a fresh install also, from Eric Hameleers ISO, and all three of these run for me (64-multilib).

Did a recompile of vlc and it works (from alien).
So as expected recompile fixes the segfault.

Just saw the gcc-g++.
I'll re-install the correct version and try again.

I have had similar problem with firefox and seamonkey, but after upgrading all mutilibs(gcc glibc), it solved the problem, also I had to rebuild my nvidia legacy340 driver.

while the loffice still not working with missing libicuuc.so.51 file.

most vimeo html5 videos have no audio(very few exception) in firefox/seamonkey; but when I tried test html5 at http://www.quirksmode.org/html5/tests/video.html, all audio works; strange.

OK. Still scratching my head on that one. Checked my multilib repository and none of the old versions are there, but somehow I managed to install all the new ones except gcc-g++.

Now that it is installed Seamonkey does work, but nothing has changed with VLC, WINE or Libreoffice, that is, they still won't run.

Libreoffice will get a new package specifically targeting slackware-current because it nbeeds a recompilation thanks to the icu4c upgrade. There are unannounced version 4.4.3 sources at libreoffice.org that I an using.
I am compiling 64-bit, then the 32-bit needs to be done and then it will be uploaded.
Virtual machine based package building... not as fast as an octacore with 16 GB of RAM of course.

Have you tried deleting the user settings for these programs?
Code:
Libreoffice - ~/.config/libreoffice
VLC - ~/.config/vlc
Seamonkey - ~/.mozilla/seamonkey
Firefox - ~/.mozilla/firefox
That's the only thing I can think of if you've done a fresh install and these programs are giving you fits all of a sudden, because none of these programs are giving any of the rest of us fits.

Hope this helps.
