Earlier, I successfully installed Skype via portage (net-im/skype), but upon attempting to run it get the following text:
Running artsd found Starting artsd wrapped skype ========================================== Running wrapped Skype failed, trying not-wrapped mode... ========================================== Upon further investigation, I narrowed the problem down to an error with my installation of libstdc++: $ artsdsp -v --mmap /opt/skype/skype.bin artsdsp: 1.5.2 name: command line: /opt/skype/skype.bin threaded: yes ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/kde/3.5/lib/libartsdsp.so.0' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored. ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/kde/3.5/lib/libartsc.so.0' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored. /opt/skype/skype.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory I then ran revdep-rebuild to try and fix the problem, and it said that that libstdc++.so.5 was broken, and that it would fix it. After revdep-rebuild ran, I went back to run Skype again and got the same error. Running revdep-rebuild a second time resulted in the exact same output. Any ideas? Thanks. --Christopher Granade -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
