Summary: not able to start xmonad, library missing (dependency missing)

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=806624

           Summary: not able to start xmonad, library missing (dependency
                    missing)
           Product: Fedora
           Version: 16
          Platform: x86_64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: high
          Priority: unspecified
         Component: xmonad
        AssignedTo: mathstuf(a)gmail.com
        ReportedBy: mail(a)erikstreb.de
         QAContact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org
                CC: petersen(a)redhat.com, mathstuf(a)gmail.com,
                    fedora-haskell-list(a)redhat.com
    Classification: Fedora
      Story Points: ---
              Type: ---
        Regression: ---
        Mount Type: ---
     Documentation: ---


Description of problem:
I can’t start xmonad since an update some weeks ago.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
xmonad-core-0.10-3.fc16.4.x86_64.rpm

How reproducible:
I enter “xmonad” in a terminal.


Actual results:
I get an error message:
/home/erik/.xmonad/xmonad-x86_64-linux: error while loading shared libraries:
libHSxmonad-contrib-0.9.2-ghc7.0.4.so: cannot open shared object file: No such
file or directory


Expected results:
No error, just start xmonad.

Additional info:
I don’t know how to workaround this problem, but I need my machine, so for me
it is urgent.

PS: I will try the Fedora 17 alpha live system, if it has the same problem. And
then report back.

Additional info:
A file called
/usr/lib64/ghc-7.0.4/xmonad-contrib-0.10/libHSxmonad-contrib-0.10-ghc7.0.4.so
exists, so I don’t know why xmonad complains and how this got broken. No manual
changes to the system.

Sorry you need to recompile your xmonad config for the version change.

The easiest way to do that is 

$ xmonad --recompile

which forces a recompilation.  That should fix your issue.

This kind of problem is the reason why I reverted the Fedora
specific patch to xmonad to use dynamic instead of static linking.

If we get to do this again we'd need to think about how to handle
this problem in the future, but perhaps I should think about a
workaround for your upgrade case.

Thank you very much. That fixed it.

Why not put a recompile command in the post of the rpm-update-package?

We'd have to run it per user that runs xmonad.

Right - perhaps it could be done in xmonad-start,
though it could be a little messy.

--- Comment #6 from Jens Petersen <petersen(a)redhat.com&gt; ---
I have added a fix in xmonad-0.10-7.fc18 such that xmonad-start
(which normally starts xmonad in Fedora) will try to check if
a user's custom binary has broken shared libs and if so touch
xmonad.hs to force recompiling at startup.

A test upgrade to pre-release F17 made me realise that this issue
also affects people upgrading to F17 because of the gmp soname bump.
I plan to backport the fix to F16 and F17 shortly.
