I have no clue… Don’t have the error on my machine… Maybe someone else can help. The only thing I would know is:

FEATURES="-sandbox -usersandbox" emerge exscalibar

But you are already aware of that.

I redownloaded it to be sure, but still no luck! Same error…

Did you download today, or did you have an old version? I think I saw it with an old version…

I tried this ebuild, but I got some sandbox violations:

————————— ACCESS VIOLATION SUMMARY —————————
LOG FILE = “/var/log/sandbox/sandbox-media-libs_-_exscalibar-1.0.4-11803.log”

open_wr: /usr/qt/3/etc/settings/.qtrc.lock
open_wr: /usr/qt/3/etc/settings/.qtrc.lock
open_wr: /usr/qt/3/etc/settings/.qt_plugins_3.3rc.lock
open_wr: /usr/qt/3/etc/settings/.qtrc.lock
——————————————————————————–

Now I know I could just disable the sandbox feature, but I don’t think that’s the best solution, so if anybody knows a different way to fix that?

This morning I got an email from Gusufyr stating the following:

Hi,
I have done an ebuild for exscalibar which lets you have the support for moodbar in amarok. For more explanations about this feature see here http://cratoo.de/content/view/143/64/ . It’s just a bar that let you see the mood of a song but it’s very funny.
I saw you have posted amarok-svn ebuilds on your blog, so I join a patch for having the moodbar support in amarok-svn, it adds a depend with a use flag, and my ebuild for exscalibar.

No better way to start the new year than with some new extended functionality. So I’ve tested and improved the ebuild a little bit and updated the amarok ebuild, for you all to enjoy.

Thanks go out to Gusufyr for creating the first build.
