CALL FOR TESTERS: linux-f8 infrastructure ports

[Naram Qashat]

As of using the latest patch set (5), I found that a few Linux applications I 
use do not work:

1) emulators/linux-ePSXe refuses to run:

./epsxe: error while loading shared libraries: libgmodule-1.2.so.0: cannot open 
shared object file: No such file or directory

 From what I can see, that file was in linux_base-fc4 because it's a part of 
glib 1.2, but fc6 and up use glib 2 instead.  It's possible that there would 
need to be a port for glib 1.2 specifically for programs like ePSXe that still 
use it.

2) multimedia/linux-realplayer also refuses to run:

/usr/local/lib/RealPlayer/realplay.bin: error while loading shared libraries: 
libexpat.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

This probably means that a newer version of RealPlayer needs to be in the ports 
or a version that works with Fedora 8 needs to be in the ports separate from the 
current one.

3) www/linux-kmopozer seems to start, but just sits there and never actually runs.

4) net/skype starts, but when it brings up the EULA, I get what's in the 
following image:

5) www/linux-flashplayer9, when used with www/nspluginwrapper, causes Firefox to 
freeze until npviewer.bin is killed.  I also get the following messages in the 
console:

(npviewer.bin:36559): Gtk-WARNING **: libqt-mt.so.3: cannot open shared object 
file: No such file or directory

(npviewer.bin:36559): Gtk-WARNING **: libqt-mt.so.3: cannot open shared object 
file: No such file or directory
*** NSPlugin Wrapper *** ERROR: NPP_Destroy() wait for reply: Message timeout
*** NSPlugin Wrapper *** ERROR: NPClass::Invalidate() invoke: Connection closed
*** NSPlugin Wrapper *** ERROR: NP_Shutdown() invoke: Connection closed

The first NSPlugin Wrapper error comes up before I kill off the npviewer.bin 
process, and the last two messages come up when I kill it.  Also, when I use 
nspluginwrapper -l to see what plugins are installed, that command segfaults. 
It even does so after I remove the flash plugin from the browser plugins folder 
with the command.  Here's what is in my /usr/local/lib/browser_plugins:

[19:30:34 kirby /celes/test-f8]# ls /usr/local/lib/browser_plugins/
.firefox.keep        libjavaplugin_oji.so npplugger.so         openvrml.la
.thunderbird.keep    libvlcplugin.so      npsidplug.so         openvrml.so
helix.so             nphelix.xpt          npwrapper.nppdf.so

Out of all the Linux applications I have installed, only acroread8 runs without 
flaws.  However, I do get the following if I run it in the console:

rm: cannot remove 
`/home/cyberbotx/.adobe/Acrobat/8.0/Preferences/mozilla/prefs.js': Function not 
implemented

(acroread:36425): Gtk-WARNING **: libqt-mt.so.3: cannot open shared object file: 
No such file or directory

(acroread:36425): Gtk-WARNING **: libqt-mt.so.3: cannot open shared object file: 
No such file or directory

I use KDE3 and have the gtk-qt-engines port installed, telling it to try to skin 
GTK applications as QT, so maybe this is related to that.  As an aside, kompozer 
brings up the same 2 Gtk-WARNING messages, yet doesn't run at all.

I also noticed the following in my all.log file when running Linux applications:

Apr 16 19:27:03 kirby kernel: 128
Apr 16 19:27:03 kirby kernel: linux_sys_futex: unknown op 128
Apr 16 19:27:03 kirby last message repeated 2136 times

Occasionally, op 129 comes up as well.  Not sure if the latest updates to 7.0 
would fix this or not, I'm still using a src updated from RELENG_7_0 and not 
from RELENG_7 yet.

Thanks,
