You can try to rename the fake libs from "so.[01]" to "so.[01].0.0" and the run ldconfig to create the symlinks, but I don't think this is going to help.

ok, as i understand now, its obvious that this will not help. so the warnings about the symbolic links do not point to a real problem. it should work. so maybe you can find the problem by trying to install and start latest compiz from latest X11:XOrg repository for yourself to reproduce the problem. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Exactly.

it should work.

I thought so, yes. See my comment #3.

compiz build is currently failing in this project. It would make more sense to test with original compiz package from openSUSE 11.4. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I think I know now why these fake libs don't help. Since libxcb-util has been *freshly* introduced (replacing all previous libxcb-* libs; there has been not libxcb-util before), this new library wasn't linked against by any program/library, so it doesn't get loaded either. This means the symbols in it can't be found either ...

Only possible hack is to use

export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/%{_lib}/libxcb-util.so.0

in /etc/profile.d/xorg-x11-libs for older distributions.

Does this work for anybody (replace %{_lib} with lib or lib64 respectively and source this file or just do a "export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib(64)/libxcb-util.so.0" for testing)? At least on openSUSE 12.1? It doesn't work for me on openSUSE 11.4. Probably because xcb_atom_get() has been removed with xcb-util 0.3.8. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

why not also include the actual xcb-util-packages ie wm,keysyms,image rather than simply creating fake libraries

Interesting to see that there are such libs now. Simply didn't know this. Several libs have been splitted off now apparently (image, keysyms, render-util). One is new (wm). And for a bunch of symbols there is no replacement at all.

Honestly I'm seriously considering going back to xcb-util 0.3.6 until these issues have been fixed. Even for openSUSE:Factory.

I'd highly appreciate this, keeping the version and just patching from 0.3.8 what is necessary for now. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Well to me the opposite way around. My understanding for the obs devel concept is to introduce the new software to the package and make it work hence the name development. Those who want a stable version can either use the distro-oss provided package or the one in factory which brings the point that not everything has to be submitted to factory as soon as the package builds but rather the stable version of the package

Ok, but it is not that black and white, not just the official repos and factory. I'm using many special repositories bringing new features to my stable distribution, X11:XOrg for instance I've added mainly to receive graphics and Mesa driver updates, which is well-maintained for this case. It makes no sense to just increase software versions even if the haven't been cleant up by its developers. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
