|---|---|---|
| dAnjou | Noskcaj, ricotz: hey, sorry to bother you directly. i'm having problems with gitg 3.17.1-1 in 16.04 and i found this log https://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2015/03/30/%23ubuntu-gnome.html but it doesn't contain a solution. have you been able to resolve the issue? error is "gitg: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/gitg/libgitg-1.0.so.0: undefined symbol: | 12:34 |
| dAnjou | ggit_cred_ssh_key_from_agent_new" | 12:34 |
| jbicha | dAnjou: are you trying to build gitg from source? because you shouldn't see that error if you aren't | 12:46 |
| dAnjou | nope, using the distro package | 12:47 |
| dAnjou | maybe someone can give me a hashsum of that library | 12:48 |
| dAnjou | it's possible that i screwed something up by trying to compile it before | 12:48 |
| jbicha | I don't feel you're providing us enough information… | 12:49 |
| jbicha | sudo apt install --reinstall gitg | 12:49 |
| dAnjou | i'd love to provide more | 12:49 |
| dAnjou | did that | 12:49 |
| dAnjou | i just purged gitg and checked whether /usr/lib/gitg/libgitg-1.0.so.0 exists. it doesn't | 12:50 |
| dAnjou | reinstalling now | 12:50 |
| dAnjou | same error | 12:50 |
| jbicha | the part that concerns me is where you said you tried to compile it before, and you're pointing to a discussion about an error seen during build | 12:51 |
| jbicha | are you able to reproduce this bug in a clean Ubuntu install? like in VirtualBox? | 12:52 |
| dAnjou | thing is, i'm not sure whether i tried to compile it on *this* machine | 12:52 |
| dAnjou | guess i have to try that | 12:52 |
| jbicha | if you can reproduce it from a clean install, please run | 12:52 |
| jbicha | ubuntu-bug gitg | 12:52 |
| jbicha | and give the steps for how to reproduce | 12:53 |
| ricotz | dAnjou, is there a /usr/local/lib/gitg/libgitg-1.0.so.0 ? | 13:04 |
| dAnjou | no | 13:06 |
| ricotz | dAnjou, output of "which gitg" and "ldd `which gitg`" | 13:07 |
| dAnjou | https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/lK7zGVgV/ | 13:08 |
| ricotz | there you go! -> libgit2-glib-1.0.so.0 => /usr/local/lib/libgit2-glib-1.0.so.0 | 13:09 |
| dAnjou | but that exists | 13:10 |
| ricotz | if you run "sudo make install" you should know what is going to happen | 13:10 |
| ricotz | yes, but it picks up a local custom file which is likely outdated | 13:10 |
| ricotz | "libgit2-glib-1.0.so.0 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgit2-glib-1.0.so.0" is correct | 13:10 |
| dAnjou | okay, so i guess i *did* try to compile it on this machine | 13:10 |
| dAnjou | is it enough to delete that other one? | 13:11 |
| ricotz | there are likely more of such files | 13:11 |
| ricotz | look into /usr/local this folder normally should not exists at all | 13:12 |
| ricotz | "sudo make uninstall" from the original build folder is what you would want | 13:12 |
| ricotz | sorry, but you are on your own with such things | 13:13 |
| dAnjou | yup, messed that up myself. but thank you very much for looking at it! | 13:15 |
| dAnjou | usually i try to use checkinstall but maybe i didn't this time | 13:16 |
| dAnjou | yay, it works now | 13:19 |
| dAnjou | thanks again, jbicha and ricotz | 13:20 |
| jbicha | ricotz: I just noticed that mdeslaur updated wk2 to 2.14.2 for xenial-security | 13:33 |
| ricotz | jbicha, yeah, epiphany 3.18.10 is a go ;) | 13:34 |
| jbicha | according to https://webkitgtk.org/security/WSA-2016-0006.html 2.14.0 is the security update so that didn't help yakkety where 2.14.2 is stuck in phased-updates | 13:35 |
