Description Joe Orton 2006-11-20 13:47:01 UTC
Description of problem:
There are a bunch of unnamespaced global symbols in libgime:

41032c00 T cache_expire_unused
41032d90 T cache_free
41032df0 T cache_new
41032ba0 T cache_node_expire
41032d00 T cache_node_insert
41032c90 T cache_node_lookup
410329b0 T decode_addrspec
41031420 T decode_lwsp
410316c0 T decode_word
410319c0 T internet_address_add_member
...
41031580 T internet_address_unref
410335c0 T list_append_node
410334e0 T list_init
41033500 T list_is_empty
41033520 T list_length
410335e0 T list_node_unlink
410335a0 T list_prepend_node
41033540 T list_unlink_head
41033570 T list_unlink_tail
41034130 T md5_final
410344d0 T md5_get_digest
410343f0 T md5_get_digest_from_file
41033640 T md5_init
41034270 T md5_update
41034850 T memchunk_alloc
410348e0 T memchunk_alloc0
...

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gmime-2.2.3-3.fc6.i386

This leads to the following global symbol collisions:

Clashes for /usr/lib/libgmime-2.0.so.2.2.3:
  with /usr/lib/libkopete_oscar.so.2.0.0 => md5_init
  with /usr/lib/httpd/modules/mod_mem_cache.so => cache_free
  with /usr/lib/libwireshark.so.0.0.1 => md5_init
  with /usr/lib/libedataserver-1.2.so.7.1.0 => md5_init md5_get_digest (...1
symbols omitted...) md5_get_digest_from_file
  with /usr/lib/libgs.so.8.15 => md5_init

This bug is open for a Fedora version that is no longer maintained and
will not be fixed by Fedora. Therefore we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen thus bug against that version.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
