Btw, "mygui" in Fedora 14 is mispackaged related to this. This lib has been moved into a private directory %_libdir/MYGUI/ where it is placed outside run-time linker's search path. The lib isn't found by the -tools and -demos, which are linked with it. Additionally, some of the packages suffer from unowned directories.
Thanks. I filed a bug about this. I'll look at getting things fixed for this, probably in an F16 time frame, as it will be past beta by the time I get a chance to look at it in depth and I don't want to break other packages.
Actually, to have the run-time linker find libMyGUI.OgrePlatform.so in %_libdir/MYGUI/, the package adds a file in /etc/ld.so.conf/. Rather pointless, because then it could be stored directly in %_libdir instead.
Sorry for not having noticed this thread until Bruno filed the ticket; MyGui is a multiplatform library that supports binary plugins, and the binary wrapper to the underlying 3d framework is implemented as a plugin as well (Ogre in this case); because of this i decided to create a private directory for MyGui plugins, while the main library libMyGUIEngine.so is under /usr/lib. Unfortunately there were no plugins available for the linux platform, or without legal issues, at the moment of packaging it. The plan was to have this libMyGUI.OgrePlatform.so in a separate subpackage, as well as other plugins while they were coming out.
On F-15, libMyGUI.OgrePlatform.so is duplicated, as it is included also in mygui-devel ... directly in %_libdir. ;)
That's unexpected to me, i'm still using F-14; Bruno is it a result of your recent work on updating from upstream?
