Hi,

I've only been using gentoo since the summer, so please bear with me.  I
recently emerge --sync, and discovered I had more than 100 packages to
update "the world".  I haven't been able to get through the emerge:

at least one of the packages, libusb, fails with this:

jade -t sgml -d ./website.dsl\#html ./manual.sgml
jade: error while loading shared libraries: libosp.so.4: cannot open shared

It seemed that gnome built ok, however, afterward i couldn't get evolution
to start...then, i noticed that i couldn't build evolution:
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/3.4.6/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld:

Thirdly, when I restart gnome, i see that i get an error popup:

There was an error starting the GNOME Settings Daemon.

Some things, such as themes, sounds, or background settings may not work
correctly.

The last error message was:

Process /usr/libexec/gnome-settings-daemon exited with status 127

GNOME will still try to restart the Settings Daemon next time you log in.


I got problems!  Please let me know if I am hitting the right forum or where
I can do better research to run this down.

Thanks,

morris
