I am using playsound in KDE to play system sounds, but it has stopped working:

$ /usr/bin/playsound chimes.wav 
/usr/bin/playsound: error while loading shared libraries: libFLAC.so.7: cannot 
open shared object file: No such file or directory

I ran revdep-rebuild -X, but the problem persists.  Any ideas?

revdep-rebuild --ignore -X ? If it still persists then maybe you should show 
how revdep-rebuild fails..

I'll walk you through this the long way round:

This is the clue: "libFLAC.so.7: cannot open shared object file: No such 
file"

I also have no such file as libFLAC.so.7, but locate libFLAC.so found 
libFLAC.so.8, and 'equery belongs' tells me it belongs to 
media-libs/flac. 'genlop -t' declares this package was upgraded on my 
box from 1.1.2-r8 to 1.1.4 on 17 July.

So obviously playsound was built against the old version, and 
revdep-rebuild can't find the old one so doesn't know what to do about 
it. And wisely does nothing about it...

emerge flac
revdep-rebuild -X

will see you right.

Thanks guys,

I apologise for an incomplete description of the problem.  I should have

playsound is built against an older version of flac, you probably need

He, he, what do you know!

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

It's not designed to pick these up.

'emerge -upDNv world' is designed to pick these up.

You only get inferred DEPENDS updated when you use the 'N' option

Right, but it should pick up the fact that media-libs/libmikmod-3.1.11-r2 
needs updating to -r4 and media-libs/sdl-sound-1.0.1-r1 to -r2?

Maybe, but that's got nothing to do with your problem, which was that
playsound was built against a library that is no longer installed.
Rebuilding media-libs/sdl-sound-1.0.1-r1 would have fixed the problem too.

That can happen if sdl-sound is not in the worldfile and is not depended
upon, directly or indirectly, by anything in the worldfile. This situation
will arise if you emerge s/th requiring sdl-sound, and then later unmerge
whatever required it. If you don't do a depclean, that will leave sdl-sound
on your computer but outside of the world tree.

Thank you Anno,

You're absolutely right, this is what was wrong with my system.  I'm not sure 
if these were packages left over from the good old xmms:
===================================================
# regenworld
add to world: media-libs/sdl-sound
add to world: media-plugins/gst-plugins-flac
add to world: media-plugins/gst-plugins-oss
add to world: media-libs/akode
===================================================

Thank you all again for helping me trouble shoot this.

That looks like your revdep-rebuild is broken. It is finding
inconsistencies (eg files that need to link against the missing
libFLAC.so.7) but then at the end contradicting itself by reporting that
the dynamic linking is consistent.

More like revdep-rebuild doesn't know how to build libOffFLAC anymore as 
the ebuild that put it there isn't in portage anymore or masked or 
keyworded or whatevered. I've seen this myself a time or three on my 
own machines.

There's nothing revdep-rebuild can do about this except shrug and leave 
it alone, but the output could be more informative. Perhaps a feature 
request in is order here

revdep-rebuild doesn't work like that.
If a binary is dynamically linked to a library that doesn't exist anymore, the 
package owning the binary is rebuilt, as portage is unlikely to know what 
package supplied a file that doesn't exist. The idea being the package will 
find and link against libraries that do exist.

In this case it would seem that revdep-rebuild should be trying to emerge:
media-libs/sdl-sound
media-plugins/gst-plugins-flac
media-plugins/gst-plugins-oss
media-libs/akode

This is how I understood that is should work too.  If for what ever reason it 
doesn't rebuild the above packages itself, it should either say why (e.g. 
keyword masked, Blocked, not in portage, etc.) and, or pass it on to me to 
emerge/unmerge manually as required.  I thought that invariably this is how 
portage behave, hence this thread to resolve my confusion.  Are we in 
agreement that there is something wrong on this occasion - should I file a 
bug?  Or a 'feature request?  Or wait until it happens again?

Reading the full output you posted, I suspect I see the problem.
# revdep-rebuild -X -p -v
should be
# revdep-rebuild -X -- -p -v

The revdep-rebuild help doesn't say it does anything with a -p arguement to 
itself, but it may well do. The -- is a separator between revdep-rebuild 
arguements, and arguements it passes to emerge.

Hmm, I believe that I tried it without the -p -v, just with the -X and the 
result was the same.  I think that the confusion arose from the multi-slotted 
media-plugins/gst-plugins-oss.

Actually revdep-rebuild -X is broken in the current stable version.
Until I get gentoolkit-0.2.4 stable, your choices are to either run the
unstable version of gentoolkit (gentoolkit-0.2.4_pre7 right now) or grab
the patch from bug #169761
<http://bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=113125> and apply it to your
version of revdep-rebuild.

Paul

I assume you meant libOggFLAC. It doesn't need to know how to build that. What 
it needs to know is how to rebuild /usr/lib/libakode_xiph_decoder.la (and 
clearly it does)...

What version of gentoolkit is that? Clearly revdep-rebuild is doing something 
wrong.
