[SOLVED] undefined symbol: eglCreatePlatformWindowSurface

Hi team,

The last week, I did a system upgrade using "pacman -Syyu" and previous to do it I enabled the "multilib" section into pacman.conf, because I needed to include it.

I run it in an old machine with nvidia, so I need to install the nvidia-340xx drivers and nvidia-340xx-utils. (Usually this process works fine, the only thing that I need to keep in mind is after to upgrade the system I need to reinstall the 340xx packages for nvidia).

As I said, in general the upgrade process works fine, but the last time one thing stop working, and I can not find the solution for it.

Basically, after to update the system, I see an error when the screen saver tries to run.
For example is I run it by console I see the following error:

$ xscreensaver-demo                          
xscreensaver-gl-visual: symbol lookup error: xscreensaver-gl-visual: undefined symbol: eglGetPlatformDisplay
flurry: symbol lookup error: flurry: undefined symbol: eglCreatePlatformWindowSurface

Anyone could help me with that?

You need a custom xscreensaver build w/ egl disabled

Oh!!... I thought that maybe there was a problem with my upgrade... but it's a compatibility issue.

Also, I see now the same issue with PCSX2...

Ok thanks!
