Mplayer libhx problem

rfer · 2008-12-10 23:44:31

Hey everyone!

Just after doing my regular update, it happens that now mplayer won't even run...I get this:

mplayer: error while loading shared libraries: libhx509.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I installed libhx from AUR, but that wouldn't solve it...

Tried to look around, but I guess no one has this problem..Ideas?

You'll need to rebuild Mplayer against the version of libhx that you have installed on your system.

rfer · 2008-12-11 13:41:12

Yeah, it was still complaining though.

Had to create a symlink pointing to libhx509.so.4, as libhx509.so.3 didn't exist...

skottish · 2008-12-11 15:40:39

Symlinking is never good practice. You can break other things without noticing it.

libhx509 belongs to heimdal and is at so.3 on my system. Are you using testing?

I looks like you have mplayer from [testing] but heimdal form [core].

It was actually the other way around I enabled testing to install something and heimdal was probably upgrade while using it.

Just downgraded heimdal to core and it's working fine now without the need for the symlink.

Thanks for the help!

Though I'm using mplayer from [extra], I upgraded heimdal today from [core], and I actually got that same problem the OP had. Downgrading to the previous version solved it.

Allan · 2008-12-13 15:22:40

there is also an update for mplayer. Wait for your mirror to sync.

Hi.
The problem seems to still be there. I have both mplayer and heimdal from last upgrade and mplayer yields about the libhx Any fix? Maybe mplayer looks for it somewhere else?

[matchil@ichi ~]$ mplayer movie.avi 
mplayer: error while loading shared libraries: libhx509.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[matchil@ichi  ~]$ locate libhx
/usr/lib/libhx509.a
/usr/lib/libhx509.so
/usr/lib/libhx509.so.3
/usr/lib/libhx509.so.3.0.0

Allan · 2008-12-14 23:37:29

You should have libhx509.so.4. What arch are you using? Also, give the versions of heimdal and mplayer you have installed.

matchil · 2008-12-15 18:09:25

I have: heimdal-1.2.1-2 and mplayer-1.0rc2-9 on i686 Arch. All up-to-date. When I downgrade to heimdal-1.2-2-i686.pkg.tar.gz (unfortunately with -Ud), mplayer works.

Same problem here but I think it's because I haven't upgraded to the new smbclient-3.2.5-2 yet which needs heimdal-1.2.1-2. I rebuilt mplayer with --disable-smb added to the configure options in the PKGBUILD and it's working again. What version of smbclient is everyone running. I think --enable-smb is a default option for mplayer.
Here is what i got installed
smbclient 3.2.5-1 most recent is 3.2.5-2
heimdal 1.2.1-2
mplayer 1.0rc2-9 <-custom built with --disable-smb

Allan · 2008-12-15 22:35:48

There were quite a few rebuilds for heimdal so if you don't update everything, then you will have a mixture of packages linking to libhx509.s0.3 and libhx509.so.4. What is the point of keeping, and working around, a smbclient package that does not work?

matchil · 2008-12-16 00:23:07

Ok. Upgrading smbclient did the charm. Maybe when upgrading mplayer it should force you to upgrade smbclient to?
Anyways problem solved.
Thanks sparchy for the tip.

Keep in mind matchil that Arch is designed to be upgraded all together; To keep rolling. Upgrading things in pieces will eventually leave the system inoperable.

Not keeping anything, just that I'm on a slow connection most of the time(modem..argh), practically never use samba so it's a lower priority for me to upgrade it right now, already had mplayer sources and nearly always custom compile mplayer because there are other switches (nas,etc.,) that I like to use. So your point is right, everybody should upgrade or you get a broken system

I have the same problem, but for me it is "mplayer: error while loading shared libraries: libhx509.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory". Same issues for ssh or evolution. I updated the whole system.

Are you sure? What version of mplayer do you have (pacman -Q mplayer). It should be mplayer 1.0rc2-9

minus · 2008-12-17 10:28:36

I am having mplayer 1.0rc2-9. I also made a bug report for this, but Allan told me that my system is really broken

Does anyone have an idea what to do instead of reinstalling a complete arch?

Allan · 2008-12-17 11:30:37

You don't happen to have a symlink in /usr/lib to do with libhx509.so.1?

Did I?

It looks very strange, ssh needs libhx509.so.4 AND libhx509.so.1...

Hello, I have a similar problem... recently, sshd stopped starting (LOL). The error is:

/usr/sbin/sshd: error while loading shared libraries: libhx509.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Odd. I searched for said file, and found it in /opt/lib32/usr/lib/. It is a symlink to libhx509.so.3.0.0, and there's also a libhx509.so, which is symlinked to the same file. pac-file reported it to be part of lib32-heimdal. I reinstalled both heimdal and lib32-heimdal, to no effect. I also tried re-sourcing my profile and even a reboot.

Thanks for any help!

Allan · 2008-12-18 02:54:29

Looks like lib32-heimdal needs updated.

Ranguvar · 2008-12-18 04:23:29

As in I should flag for updating or as in I don't have the latest version (I do)?

EDIT: Disregard, I see.

EDIT 2: Updating using this updated PKGBUILD does not fix the problem? It downloads and installs fine, but now there is no libhx509.so.3... just .so and .so.4, which are symlinks to .so.4.0.0. Same error message after reboot. I tried making .so.3, a symlink, but that didn't fix it either.
