Description Roland Mainz 2004-06-20 23:54:57 UTC
It seems that "make install" does not install libXxf86dga.so.1

Steps to reproduce:
1. Download and install SuSE 9.1 in a VMware VM
2. Grab Xorg trunk
3. Compile it:
% make World 2>&1 | tee -a buildlog.log
4. Install it
% make install
% make install.man
5. Run xdpyinfo

Result:
% xdpyinfo
xdpyinfo: error while loading shared libraries: libXxf86dga.so.1: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory

Same problems occurs for libXxf86misc.so.1

Expected result:
Working xdpyinfo
Comment 1 Roland Mainz 2004-06-20 23:56:49 UTC
Weired.

Copying the libs to /usr/X11R6/lib/ does not help, only
xorg_cvs/xc # cp ./exports/lib/libXxf86dga.so.1 /usr/X11R6/lib/.
xorg_cvs/xc # cp ./exports/lib/libXxf86misc.so.1 /usr/X11R6/lib/.
cures the problem. Maybe the install process only screws up the linker search
path (e.g. -L<path> -R<path> ...) ... ;-(

Egbert/sndirsch:
Can you take this bug, please ?
Comment 3 Mike A. Harris 2004-08-06 23:46:25 UTC
I can't reproduce this.  When I build xorg 6.7.0 or CVS head as of Tuesday
the 3rd of August, I get these files once the build is complete.  Can you
confirm wether this problem still exists or is fixed?
Comment 4 Stefan Dirsch 2004-08-07 00:32:35 UTC
I'm sorry, but I cannot reproduce this problem with current CVS (04-08-03). 
Comment 5 Gary-adam Shannon 2004-09-04 00:09:57 UTC
This happened for me also using 6.7.0 on mandrake10;

Running ldconfig manually (and making sure the x11r6 lib is in your ld.so.conf
path first) fixes this issue.

So it is not that it doesn't get installed.

unable to reproduce this with HEAD, closing.
