Update to kernel 2.6.30.2-1 splashy do not work

Hi all, 22th of july I updated my beautiful archlinux system, I do not have the list of files which where updated (does anybody knows how to know that? ), so after te kernel update Archlinux do a mkinitcpio and it return this messages errors :

ERROR: file '/usr/lib/libdirectfb-1.2.so.0' does not exist
ERROR: file '/usr/lib/libfusion-1.2.so.0' does not exist
ERROR: file '/usr/lib/libdirect-1.2.so.0' does not exist
ERROR: file '/usr/lib/libjpeg.so.62' does not exist
ERROR: file '/usr/lib/directfb-1.2-0/wm/libdirectfbwm_default.so' does not exist
ERROR: file '/usr/lib/directfb-1.2-0/systems/libdirectfb_fbdev.so' does not exist
ERROR: file '/usr/lib/directfb-1.2-0/inputdrivers/libdirectfb_keyboard.so' does not exist
ERROR: file '/usr/lib/directfb-1.2-0/interfaces/IDirectFBFont/libidirectfbfont_ft2.so' does not exist
ERROR: file '/usr/lib/directfb-1.2-0/interfaces/IDirectFBFont/libidirectfbfont_default.so' does not exist
ERROR: file '/usr/lib/directfb-1.2-0/interfaces/IDirectFBImageProvider/libidirectfbimageprovider_png.so' does not exist
ERROR: file '/usr/lib/directfb-1.2-0/interfaces/IDirectFBImageProvider/libidirectfbimageprovider_jpeg.so' does not exist

So the first thing that I did was to see that location and I do have /usr/lib/libdirectb BUT 1.4 version and (in the same location) libjpeg.so BUT 7 version, so I had to edit :

sudo vim /lib/initcpio/install/splashy : changing the versions of those libraries to ones that I do have installed in my system.

I do not know if anyone had the same issue. I hope help with this.

thanks in advance and best regards.

Re: Update to kernel 2.6.30.2-1 splashy do not work

Hello taken2k4!

First of all, i miss a genlop -c/i like package/functionality too, like on my gentoo was. But you can see of course the pacman.log.

It must contain related informations.

Why do you 'hack' the version manually ? It's just a formal change only. Please use pacman -Syu, and write the error messages if there are.

Hope this helps.

Re: Update to kernel 2.6.30.2-1 splashy do not work

Sorry for the late response, I just got a very similar issue, my error was:

ERROR: file '/usr/lib/libdirectfb-1.2.so.0' does not exist
ERROR: file '/usr/lib/libfusion-1.2.so.0' does not exist
ERROR: file '/usr/lib/libdirect-1.2.so.0' does not exist

ERROR: file '/usr/lib/directfb-1.2-0/interfaces/IDirectFBImageProvider/libidirectfbimageprovider_jpeg.so' does not exist

upgrading splashy from the AUR fixed the issue right away though.

Hope this helps :]]]

That makes sense since splashy wouldn't update with pacman -Syu
directfb upgrade would have been the culprit.

Re: Update to kernel 2.6.30.2-1 splashy do not work

Well I read another post where says something like :

Download the package from AUR and change the versions of the libdirecfb from 1.2 to 1.4 an reinstall it, but I am afraid that I have to say that does not work, at least for me.

Just reinstall splashy from AUR (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=10211 Last Updated: Mon, 27 Jul 2009 02:38:23 +0000)

It worked for me.
