Mageia forum

Skype disappeared from my desktop after I upgraded Mageia 4 to Mageia 5, which went smoothly otherwise. I uninstalled and reinstalled the get-Skype package to get a fresh copy, but it still doesn't run. When I run Skype in a terminal it shows the message: "/usr/share/skype/skype: symbol lookup error: /lib/libGL.so.1: undefined symbol: _glapi_tls_Dispatch".

Can you please show the output of

Code: Select all: rpm -qa | grep mesa | sort

FWIW, skype runs fine here.

Code: Select all: [root@eris griffin]# rpm -qa | grep mesa | sort lib64mesaegl1-10.5.7-3.mga5 lib64mesagl1-10.5.7-3.mga5 lib64mesaglesv2_2-10.5.7-3.mga5 lib64mesaglu1-9.0.0-5.mga5 lib64mesaopenvg1-10.0.5-1.1.mga4.tainted lib64osmesa8-10.0.5-1.1.mga4.tainted libmesaegl1-10.0.5-1.1.mga4.tainted libmesagl1-10.5.7-3.mga5.tainted libmesaglu1-9.0.0-5.mga5 libmesaopenvg1-10.0.5-1.1.mga4.tainted libosmesa8-10.0.5-1.1.mga4.tainted mesa-10.5.7-3.mga5 [root@eris griffin]#

Checking the respositories, I saw that the following packages have updated versions in Mageia 5:

Code: Select all: lib64osmesa8 libmesaegl1 libosmesa8

So I updated those, and now my configuration looks like this:

Code: Select all: [root@eris griffin]# rpm -qa | grep mesa | sort lib64mesaegl1-10.5.7-3.mga5 lib64mesagl1-10.5.7-3.mga5 lib64mesaglesv2_2-10.5.7-3.mga5 lib64mesaglu1-9.0.0-5.mga5 lib64mesaopenvg1-10.0.5-1.1.mga4.tainted lib64osmesa8-10.5.7-3.mga5.tainted libmesaegl1-10.5.7-3.mga5.tainted libmesagl1-10.5.7-3.mga5.tainted libmesaglu1-9.0.0-5.mga5 libmesaopenvg1-10.0.5-1.1.mga4.tainted libosmesa8-10.5.7-3.mga5.tainted mesa-10.5.7-3.mga5 [root@eris griffin]#

But Skype still throws the same error.

If, as root, you type

Code: Select all: ldconfig

does that fix the problem?

No, that doesn't help. I still get the same error.

Can you please show the output of

Code: Select all: rpm -qa | grep glapi ls -al /lib/libGL.so.1* symbol=_glapi_tls_Dispatch; for f in /usr/lib*/*.so.*; do objdump -t -T $f | grep $symbol | grep -v '*UND*' && echo $f; done

Please next time use code tags as explained in ftp://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/linux/mandriva/m ... e_tags.ogv

Well, I have the libglapi0 also from tainted, and the symbol shows up in there too:

Code: Select all: for f in /usr/lib*/*.so.*; do objdump -t -T $f | grep $symbol | grep -v '*UND*' && rpm -qf $f; done 0000000000000000 g D .tdata 0000000000000008 Base _glapi_tls_Dispatch lib64glapi0-10.5.7-3.mga5.tainted 0000000000000000 g D .tdata 0000000000000008 Base _glapi_tls_Dispatch lib64glapi0-10.5.7-3.mga5.tainted 00000000 g D .tdata 00000004 Base _glapi_tls_Dispatch libglapi0-10.5.7-3.mga5.tainted 00000000 g D .tdata 00000004 Base _glapi_tls_Dispatch libglapi0-10.5.7-3.mga5.tainted

Makes sense as skype is also a 32bit program.

So I should install lib64glapi0-10.5.7-3.mga5.tainted and libglapi0-10.5.7-3.mga5.tainted to fix this?

I did that, and apparently it worked. Skype came right up. I'll mark this as solved now. Thank you!

No need to, you already had that
