[gentoo-user] libpng12 is missing

[gentoo-user] libpng12 is missing

[Xi Shen]

hi,

my system is gentoo amd64, kde 4.3. i just updated my portage, and
updated the world. then i ran revdep-rebuild, and i got a error when
building "notification-daemon-0.4.0-r1". the error found in the build
log is: cannot find -lpng12

i have both libpng-1.2.43-r1 and libpng-1.4.2 installed, but i do not
have libpng12.a in my /usr/lib64 directory. and 'pkg-config libpng
--libs' only show '-lpng14'.

i guess these 2 versions do not work well with each other. how can i fix this?

P.S. i have 'png' in my USE flags.

Are you sure you still have version 1.2.43 installed?  I'm going thru
the same thing now on x86 and libpng-1.2 was deleted during the update.
I now have only 1.4.2 remaining.

Revdep-rebuild has been enumerating broken files for twenty minutes and
is still going.  I've never seen breakage this bad before.  This machine
is going to be useless for the next 24 hours or so until all the packages
are rebuilt.

yes, upgrade removed 1.2.43. but after i saw that error, i emerged
1.2.43 manually, hoping it could fix this error, but not...

i do not understand why linpng12 is not build even after i emerged
1.2.43...do i need to use some special emerging   technique?

It looks like preserved-libs didn't catch this one either. I just ran
revdep-rebuild overnight, and now notification-daemon and pygtk won't
build. But emerge @preserved-rebuild came up with nothing before the
revdep-rebuild.

This looks to me like a major portage screwup.  I see that on my ~amd64
machine I have both versions of libpng, but the 1.2.43-r1 doesn't install
a pkg-config file because 1.4.2 installs one with the same name, and just
as bad, version 1.2.43-r1 removed the libpng12 header files.

For now, I'd suggest just going back to to 1.2.43 if you can -- maybe mask
 >1.2.43 in package.mask?

Meanwhile I'm trying to fix firefox so I can read the bug report mentioned
by Andras.

well I'm getting into a .la hell...
you need to rebuild packages which are themselves not invalid and therefore 
can't be found by revdep-rebuild...

searching with "grep png12 `find /usr/lib64/ -name '*.la'`" lists all .la 
files with a bad png version, rebuilding those will fix the system. after that 
all packages found by revdep-rebuild can be emerged.

I should have said 1.2.40 instead of 1.2.43, sorry

I think the png12 should be png14 instead.  We need to go backwards by re-
building the packages that have already been linked against libpng-1.4.2
(which we are removing until it's fixed).

A long time ago, maybe one or two years ago, an occasional package
would suggest that I should run emerge @preserved-rebuild to rebuild
packages that are linked to obsolete libraries.

This worked very well for a few months, and then those suggestions
suddenly stopped coming.

Since then, emerge @preserved-rebuild (or @preserved-libs) says this:

#emerge @preserved-rebuild
!!! '@preserved-rebuild' is not a valid package atom.
!!! Please check ebuild(5) for full details.

I get the same error on my x86 and ~amd64 machines, i.e. with either
baselayout-1 or baselayout-2.  The man pages for ebuild, emerge,
portage, and make.conf say nothing about 'preserved'.

Anyone have an idea what changed, or what I'm doing wrong?

I thought at first maybe there was nothing to be rebuilt so I ran the 
command to see if I get the same thing but I get this:

root@smoker ~ # emerge @preserved-rebuild
emerge: 'preserved-rebuild' is an empty set
emerge: no targets left after set expansion
root@smoker ~ #

So, it's not that you don't have anything to rebuild but that portage 
doesn't seem to understand what you are telling it to do.  Also, I get a 
message pretty regular to rebuild packages, usually OOo of course.  lol  
Maybe the things you have installed doesn't require rebuilding so much?  
I have KDE for my desktop and between that and OOo, there is usually 
something to be rebuilt.

I got a list of the sets that portage is supposed to recognize, this is 
the list.  Please pardon the way I got it.  I can't recall the correct 
way and just made it something I knew didn't exist.

root@smoker ~ # emerge @preserved
emerge: There are no sets to satisfy 'preserved'. The following sets exist:

     downgrade
     installed
     kde-3.5
     live-rebuild
     module-rebuild
     preserved-rebuild
     rebuilt-binaries
     security
     selected
     system
     unavailable
     world

root@smoker ~ #

You should have those less the kde-3.5, that one is homemade.

:-)  :-)

Curious about that unavailable one tho.  o_O  If it is unavailable, why 
have it?

portage 2.2 was masked to force testing of the older version. Unless you
unmasked it, you will have downgraded to a version that does not support
sets, which would give this message.

sadly, it does not get them all.
The only save way:
grep -R for png12 and remerge all packages whose files pop up.

For example revdep-rebuilt failed to rebuild pygtk - because of glade. But it 
never tried to rebuild glade...

Shall I wait to update my box until a safe way through all this is 
established?  I can't afford to break things right now.

Yes. While I updated my netbook successfully, there are still a number of
packages that won't rebuild on my desktop. Sometimes you can look at the
build failure and see that another package, that revdep-rebuild missed,
needs an update, but not always.

On the other hand, nothing KDE4 seems affected, it's mainly
GTK/glade/pango/cairo stuff that's affected, so you would probably get
away with it on a pure KDE4 box.

I had to rebuild qt-gui, kdelibs, ksplash and a few other bits and pieces 
before KDE would run.

I still have huge breakage with gnomecanvas and other things, meaning that 
lots of gtk apps are broken right now for me.

That's odd, the only KDE/QT stuff I have problems with are kdelibs:3.5
and qt:3 and the couple of packages that depend on them. If any KDE4
packages had problems, they must have been picked up by revdep-rebuild
and rebuilt without problems.

Ah yes, genlop confirms that, they were rebuilt but I missed them among
the huge list of packages that revdep-rebuild spewed out.

This worked for me

lafilefixer --justfixit
emerge --oneshot --jobs 1 --keep-going $(qfile -qC $(find /usr/lib64 \
-name '*.la' | xargs grep -- -lpng12 | awk -F: '{print $1}'))

You may need to run it more than once before it completes without errors.

Please cite the comment number.  "Last comment" is not static.

FWIW, revdep-rebuild worked without a hitch on one of my machines.  On
another, no combination of revdep-rebuild/lafilefixer would fix
unresolved link dependencies.  I ended up having to do an "emerge -e
world".  That finally fixed the problem.

I tried several revdep-rebuild/lafilefixer cycles with similar
frustration (although on another machine it just worked) but rebuilding
everything with -lpng12 in a .la file, as per my last post, allowed
revdep-rebuild to complete.

I try to avoid emerge -e world because

1: It is time consuming.
2: It may still not work after all that time.
3: It is too much like the Gentoo equivalent of a reinstall and you are
   none the wiser as to why it fixed something.

Several times more than just once actually. At the end dev-
python/gtksourceview-python just refused to build. 

But I fixed that with USE=-gtk

I actually run emerge -e world on my machines about once a month +/-,
mostly to ensure the system can compile itself.  So usually for me it's
more for finding problems than resolving them, but I guess I'm so used
to doing it that it's no big deal.  I remember it used to take days, but
nowadays if I start it in the evening it's usually done in the morning,
or if I kick it off before leaving for work it's usually done before I
get home.  I also make a habit of doing a full bare-metal restore of one
of my machines once a month to make sure my backups are good.  So yeah,
I have a habit of doing "reinstalls" except I don't really think of them
as reinstalls because I (hopefully) get everything back :)

That's because it tries to emerge packages in the order in which the .la
files are found, taking no account of interdependencies. Two runs were
enough for me, but I'd already rebuilt some packages manually before
trying this. I don't have python/gtksourceview-python, which is an easier
way of fixing things that changing USE flags :)

In my box (~amd64, unmasked portage) emerge automagically slotted 1.2
and emerged 1.4 in slot 0. And everything seems to work and be happy.
revdep-rebuild finds nothing wrong. So maybe the easy fix is to
"emerge libpng:1.2"?

because of glade?

Had to rebuild glade manually, because pygtk insisted on failing.

yeah, thats what I have now... I still need png 1.2 for VMware Player.

but in my case, I had 1.2.43-r2 which is in slot 0?!
so on install of 1.4.2 it deinstalled the 1.2.43-r2 version. manually 
installed 1.2.43-r1 to get 1.2 back.

You're right, in fact after updating again it wanted to downgrade
because of nxserver... So I masked 1.2.43-r2 and now everyone is happy
again.

Hey, what's a kde geek doing with gnome packages anyway :-p

The gentoo dev who updated libpng said (in the bug report) that the .la
files are causing the 'png12 not found' error, so I just 'fixed' all of
them this way (basically Neil's way only different):

#find /usr/lib/ -name \*.la -exec sed s/png12/png14/ -i '{}' \;

Only *then* would revdep-rebuild finish rebuilding all the broken packages
without crapping out.  (The dev had some affectionate words to say about
libtool that gave me a chuckle.)

I saw that in the bug report too but, as I posted there, I didn't fancy
sedding about with the .la files (the suggestion came with a big fat
warning) so I took the safer but longer approach or re-emerging the
packages that owned those files.

Argh.  Just have to vent a little.

Bring up a new install on a system whose system disk died and was replaced with an SSD.  OS installed no problems.  Recovered my RAID5 and LVM JBOD volume (a GIANT THANK YOU to the mdadm and lvm2 folks!).  Then first "weekly" update hits the libpng12 issue.  No complaints, it's what I expect being at ~amd64 and the price I willing pay for the benefits of gentoo.  Another THANK YOU to the lafilefixer folks and system is up.

So on to my list a applications to be installed.  Firefox check, openoffice check, handbrake...crap.  Handbrake is one of the non-standard packages that includes their own version of support libraries.  You guessed it, libpng12 dependent.  Argh!

Have fun,
Roy

After writing down some ideas about installing the old libraries somewhere 
in parallel, I just checked eix, and there is an extra slot for the 1.2 
version. So, just emerge media-libs/libpng:1.2 , and I'd expect all to be 
fine then.

I had the same problem with a 'missing' libpng12.  There are 2 slots for
libpng: slot 0 and slot 1.2.  You DON'T want anything in the 1.2 slot. 
What you DO want is the lonely ebuild in the 0 slot.  Why?  It will
create the libpng12.la file that is needed for packages to find the
library.  So this is what I did:

1.  Ran "emerge -C libpng" to remove ALL versions of libpng that were
installed.
2.  Ran "emerge =libpng-1.2.43-r2".  I believe that is the version of
the slot 0 libpng.
3.  Ran "lafilefixer --justfixit" -- just in case.
4.  Re-emerged cairo to make sure it was linked to my newly installed
libpng12
5.  Belatedly realized that I should mask every version of libpng above
the slot 0 one, and did so.
6.  Ran "equery d libpng" from the 'gentoolkit' package.
7.  Re-emerged everything on that list (even Open office - ugh).

In step 7, everything compiled and installed just fine - no errors. 
From what I can see, this looks like an upstream bug, where their source
is coded to look only for libpng12, and nothing else.  For me it would
stop with an error during the linking phase, or right at the beginning
(at least those packages had checks).

I hope this helps someone.

Got handbrake installed.  When initially going thru the mess I ended up with
both slot 0 and slot 1.2 installed.  So unmerged slot 1.2, did a revdep-rebuild,
then handbrake built fine.

So system is (for now at least) pure 1.4.

Have fun,
Roy

Doesn't seem to be the case here. (Some details below), But do we have
a accepted way to handle this problem now?

-------        ---------       ---=---       ---------      -------- 

eix shows both versions installed with 1.2.43-r3 in slots (1.2) and
1.4.2 in slot 0.  Or at least I THINK thats what that output means.
(Asterisks added ed -hp)

I] media-libs/libpng
     Available versions:  
        (0)     1.2.43-r2 (~)1.4.2
        (1.2)   (~)1.2.43-r3
     Installed versions:  ( ** 1.2.43-r3(1.2) ** )(10:18:02 05/23/10) 
                          ( ** 1.4.2 ** ) 10:14:51 

But still some pkgs strike out from what appears to be libpng errors:

The log files show a 8-9 pkgs failing... I'm not sure about all of

When I wrote this, I did not really know much about this, I just spotted 
the 2nd slot. At that time, I also had a little libpng trouble, I could 
not update @world due to libpng blockers. I unmerged libpng, updated 
something that was blocking (don't remember what), and remerged libpng, 
because many applications were no longer working. I did the world update, 
ran lafilefixer --justfixit, emerged @preserved-libs, and had to do a 
revdep-rebuild, don't know why, I thought with FEATURES=preserve-libs this 
should no longer necessary.

But in the end, everything is sane now. My eix output looks similar, I 
also have both 1.2.43-r3 and 1.4.2 installed.

Weird. I just tried that, and thunar-1.0.2 compiles just fine.
Does /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0 exist on your system? But, wait a minute, my 
thunar links to libpng14.so.14, not to 1.2. Do you have 
/usr/lib/libpng14.so.14? Maybe lafilefixer -justfixit fixed something for 
me, and you should try this, too?

Thanks for your reply, but I guess it will remain a puzzle... I did so
many things fussing with libpng... I'm not sure what fixed it in the
end. 

One of them was to redo installing both libpng version all over again,
by emerge -vC libpng completely then installing again making sure to
install 1.4 first, and 1.2 in the slot. But also used `lafilefixer
-justfixit' Not to mention Neils fix with the nifty regular
expressions.

Also a revdep-rebuild in there.

At some point I was able to startx... (A libpng 1.2 error had been
stopping X from starting) and finish the rest from X.  (getting the
xfce pkgs to install finally.)

I kept having the nagging feeling I might have originally had the
libpng version in the wrong order... I'm not sure if that is even
possible though.

IMHO this is a generic problem: when multiple slots exist, 
portage doesnt seem to know which slot/version of some lib a 
package was actually built against (that's also why we need
things like revdep-rebuild). 

A clean and generic solution would IMHO be if that information
is recorded @ /var/db/pkg/*. In case of some depenency exists
in different slots, the installed binary package record also
contains a dependency to the lib's slot the package was 
actually built against. This way, old versions/slots still
in use should never be uninstalled. 

In another pass we could scan for packages which could be 
rebuilt against a newer lib version, or maybe have it as 
an new emerge option (like --newuse for changed usedflags).
