Description Bruno Wolff III 2011-03-30 16:35:48 UTC
Description of problem:

Btw, "mygui" in Fedora 14 is mispackaged related to this. This lib
has been moved into a private directory %_libdir/MYGUI/ where it is
placed outside run-time linker's search path. The lib isn't found by
the -tools and -demos, which are linked with it. Additionally, some
of the packages suffer from unowned directories.

Comment 1 Bruno Wolff III 2011-03-30 17:41:46 UTC
No other packages depend on it:

$ repoquery --alldeps --whatrequires mygui
mygui-0:3.0.1-5.fc15.i686
mygui-0:3.0.1-5.fc15.x86_64
mygui-demos-0:3.0.1-5.fc15.x86_64
mygui-devel-0:3.0.1-5.fc15.i686
mygui-devel-0:3.0.1-5.fc15.x86_64
mygui-tools-0:3.0.1-5.fc15.x86_64

Actually, to have the run-time linker find libMyGUI.OgrePlatform.so in
%_libdir/MYGUI/, the package adds a file in /etc/ld.so.conf/. Rather
pointless, because then it could be stored directly in %_libdir instead.

Currently, the reinstalled -demos and -tools seem to work, too, so the
problems with unowned dirs are minor.

On F-15, libMyGUI.OgrePlatform.so is duplicated, as it is included also in
mygui-devel ... directly in %_libdir. ;)

Comment 2 Fedora Admin XMLRPC Client 2011-07-19 11:13:32 UTC
This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database.  Reassigning to the new owner of this component.

Comment 3 Fedora End Of Life 2013-04-03 14:05:09 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 19 development cycle.
Changing version to '19'.

(As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 19 development
cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 19 End Of Life. Thank you.)

Comment 4 Bruno Wolff III 2014-12-31 04:58:01 UTC
An update in rawhide takes care of this issue. Though one of the .so files has a pretty generic name and may need to be renamed someday.
