Hi emacs gurus,
I'm wondering if you would help me with an emacs GUI issue I have recently when I installed emacs 23.2 for use by our financial engineering group.
[Problem]
$ DISPLAY=sbtorsvr329:23.0; export DISPLAY
$ /usr/local/bin/emacs
ld.so.1: emacs: fatal: relocation error: file /usr/local/bin/emacs: symbol rsvg_handle_get_dimensions: referenced symbol not found
Killed
$ DISPLAY=sbdevsvr286.dev:148.0; export DISPLAY
$ /usr/local/bin/emacs --> successful
We use the emacs and dependent packages compiled by sunfreeware.com (SMC* packages) for Solaris 10 sparc.
The problem I have with GUI emacs lauch is that the success depends on the display set. It will launch fine for one display but crash for the other.
As you can see below, when the display is set to sbtorsvr329:23.0, the dynamic linker try to resolve the symbol rsvg_handle_get_dimensions, which is not defined in librsvg-2.so.2 being used, therefore it crashes; however, when the display is set to bdevsvr286.dev:148.0, the dynamic linker never try to resolve that symbol, as such, the GUI successfully gets launched:
--------------------------
$ LD_DEBUG=audit,reloc,symbols
$ DISPLAY=sbtorsvr329:23.0; export DISPLAY
$ /usr/local/bin/emacs 2>emacs.disp=sbtorsvr329:23.0 --> emacs GUI crashed
Killed
$ grep rsvg_handle_get_dimensions emacs.dis=sbtorsvr329:23.0|wc -l
569
$ grep rsvg_handle_get_dimensions emacs.dis=sbtorsvr329:23.0|grep librsvg-2.so.2

$ grep rsvg_handle_get_dimensions emacs.disp=sbdevsvr286.dev:148.0
--------------------------
$ ldd /usr/local/bin/emacs|grep librsvg
librsvg-2.so.2 => /usr/lib/librsvg-2.so.2
The above library is installed with SUNWgnome-base-libs package and doesn't contain the definition for symbol rsvg_handle_get_dimensions:
$ ls -l /usr/lib/librsvg*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 Oct 17 2006 /usr/lib/librsvg-2.so -> librsvg-2.so.2.5.0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 Oct 17 2006 /usr/lib/librsvg-2.so.2 -> librsvg-2.so.2.5.0
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root other 112408 Dec 15 2004 /usr/lib/librsvg-2.so.2.5.0
$ echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/usr/lib:/usr/lib/X11
$ /usr/ccs/bin/nm /usr/lib/librsvg-2.so.2 | grep rsvg_handle_get_dimensions --> return empty
The behaviour that emacs resolve the rsvg_handle_get_dimensions symbol for one display but not for the other is really a mystery for me.
Continuing investigation, if I add path /usr/local/lib before /usr/lib, then the rsvg_handle_get_dimensions error doesn't appear since the librsvg provided by SMClrsvg contains the definition for the symbol, but then, emacs crashes with /usr/local/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0.1200.0 segmentation fault:

SMCemacs 23.2 requires SMCgtk 2.12.0, which means the correct version of library was loaded.
I was thinking to try the native libgtk-x11 library, to do this, /usr/lib has been be put before /usr/local/lib, but then it will hit the rsvg_handle_get_dimensions error again.
Can someone please help?

This all looks very odd. It has been many years since I've worked under
Solaris/SunOS, but if your workstations are correctly configured, you
should not need to set the display variable - this should happen
automatically when things are configured correctly as part of the X
login process.
Do you get the same results when running something like hostname --fqdn
on the different machines i.e. a fully qualified domain name
(host.domain.com etc)?
Are you running emacs on the central server with client workstations
connecting to the server and then running emacs? Are all these
workstations runnig the same OS? How are you determining the hostname
part of the display? How are you determining the display number? Can you
run other X applications with the display setting that appears to fail
with emacs?
My guess is that it isn't that emacs cannot load the necessary
libraries, but rather it cannot connect to the X display you have set
and therefore cannot obtain the necessary display parameters and bombs
out (remember that with X, the display information relates to the local
workstation, not the host running emacs). Running another X apps, such
as xload, may provide more details.
