Hi, I woke up this morning to discover that I cant play any videos in
mplayer or xine. I get this error:
[rob@localhost ~]$ mplayer
mplayer: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libavcodec.so.51: undefined
symbol: faacDecOpen
Everything is uptodate, and I was playing a video a few days ago. So
I am guessing a recent update has broken something.
Any one else with this problem or with a solution?
I had a problem similar to this awhile back. All of a sudden I was
getting "mplayer: error while loading shared libraries: libspeex.so.1:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory".
When I looked around for libspeex.so.1, I found an empty symbolic link:
ll /usr/lib/libspeex*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Oct 28 14:01 /usr/lib/libspeex.so.1 ->
libspeex.so.1.3.0
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 139388 Oct 26 04:07 /usr/lib/libspeex.so.1.2.0
Switching the link back to libspeex.so.1.2.0 got me working again.
My guess was that an update went bad.
