[jaunty] some ia32 libs are linked in weird places

[Bogdan Butnaru]

Binary package hint: ia32-libs

Due to some trouble with skype I've had to take a look in /usr/lib32, and it seems that some libs are misplaced, at least on my machine. (I've just updated from Intrepid to Jaunty, I've no idea what would happen on a clean install.)

Take a look at the snippets below. libpulse-simple.so is symlinked to a non-existent libpulse-simple.so.0.0.1, libpulse.so to (non-existent) libpulse.so.0.4.1, and libltdl.so to libltdl.so.3 instead of (I assume) libltdl.so.7. Also, libgpg-error.so is symlinked to libgpg-error.so.0 and libgcrypt.so to libgcrypt.so.11, despite the fact that the former are in /usr/lib32 and the latter in /lib32. By the way, I don't think I see the reason for a /lib32 directory, shouldn't everything reside in /usr/lib32?

I noticed the problem when ldconfig complained about missing files. In this case I just added/replaced by hand the symlinks and ldconfig at least stopped complaining. (I still haven't solved my initial Skype problem, so I've no idea if this contributed or not.)

Hy,

I fully agree, and some dependencies seem to be missing as well:

This is not maintainable in its current form, we always end up with broken or missing links.
I will turn this mess into something automatic.

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package ia32-libs - 2.7ubuntu4

---------------
ia32-libs (2.7ubuntu4) jaunty; urgency=low

  * fetch-and-build:
    - add libsqlite3-0, needed as a dependency of libnss3-1d (LP: #326311).
    - add libmikmod2 and libsmpeg0 needed as dependencies of libsdl-mixer1.2
      (LP: #154883).
    - add libcanberra-gtk-module and its dependencies (libcanberra-gtk0,
      libcanberra0 and libtdb1)
    - add libsdl-image1.2 and python2.5 (LP: #277454)
    - add missing dependencies:
      - libcelt0 for libjack0
      - libsmbios2 for libhal1
      - libspeexdsp1 and liboil0.3 for libpulsecore9
      - libavahi-common3 and libavahi-client3 for libpulse-browse0
      - libgail18 for libgnomecanvas2-0
    - drop libartsc0, which is now obsolete.
  * debian/rules:
    - automatically create all missing .so symlinks in /lib32 and /usr/lib32 as
      the manual list of links was always out of sync and incomplete
      (LP: #277772, #309841).
  * Freshen packages (as of Jaunty beta1) (LP: #338145, #325098, #337210)
