xbmc fails to start libGLU.so.1 [Solved]

[maulbongo]

Hi folks,

Since yesterdays update xbmc fails to start, it gives this error:

/usr/lib64/xbmc/xbmc.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libGLU.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I found out that virtual:glu-9.0 seems to be a broken package, because theres nothing inside.

Before upgdating there was a symlink

Code: Select all

/usr/lib64/libGLU.so.1

to

Code: Select all

/usr/lib64/opengl/xorg-x11/lib/libGLU.so.1.3.09000

But after this update these files are missing.

fortunately I've got a testing machine and before updating there, I did a backup of

Code: Select all

/usr/lib64/opengl/xorg-x11/lib/libGLU.so.1.3.09000

and

Code: Select all

/usr/lib64/opengl/xorg-x11/lib/libGLU.so.1

(which also is a symlink).
For getting xbmc to start again I put these two files (after update) to

Code: Select all

/usr/lib64/

and now xbmc starts again.
So for all having this problems just start the sabayon 10 live dvd and copy these files to usb drive and then start your normal system and copy these two files to

Code: Select all

/usr/lib64/

and xbmc should start again.
This problem has already been discussed here:
