And it seems that nobody had this problem. Perhaps I did a depclean or something at the wrong time ;-) -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Yep.

They mean that a file in your system is still referencing to "linc" (as stated in my previous messages) its a dependency of evolution, not evolution itself. To find the package in question : grep "liblinc" -r /usr/lib Then go ahead and use qpkg -f , to find the files that reference to it, and rebuild those. Then linc and all traces thereof will be earased from your system. Alternatingly, if you want to spend less work, but more time on it: emerge -e evolution just rebuild all its deps in order and get it done with.. . I don't recommend it at all, but its an option. //Spider -- begin .signature This is a .signature virus! Please copy me into your .signature!

Tried it several times with no luck. After a emerge -Udv world I managed to get revdep-rebuild to actually rebuild Evolution... But when I try to execute it still tries to load liblinc I'll remove Linc and investigate further, thanks. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Most likely you've run depclean or something like that, and this caused a in-between library that needs linc to break. if you are very very goddarn certain its evolution, simply re-emerging evolution will relink it without linc, but as far as I remember theres no dependency on linc there. What needs to be done is finding the single library that evolution links to that has the unsatisfied dependency on linc, and rebuild it. Strange that revdep-rebuild hasn't caught it.

Re: [gentoo-user] Evolution missing dependancy on linc package?
Hi, Are u in the x86 "stable" or "unstable" stream? Cos I had been using evolution for a long time and then began to upgrade my Gnome to 2.4...I took the chance to upgrade a whole load of other "critical" packages on my system as well and because I staggered the whole emerge world upgrade there was a period which evolution didn;t work at all and my whole Gnome was stuck in limbo with some 2.2 and 2.4 libraries (I had autoclean off...but that;s another story) but all was good once I cleaned out all the 2.2 stuff Simon On Fri, 21 Nov 2003, Brenden Walker wrote: > I've been unable to emerge evolution for a couple of weeks now (don't > recollect the exact version).

I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something. I have a feeling that some other commonly installed package must be installing linc for other users.. Haven't heard a peep about this from anyone else, which led me to believe it might be my problem ;-) -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
