I think the problem is in the environment or setup somewhere.  I don't 
have the answer, but I think I'm getting closer.  So please bear with me 
as I explain.

First)  This is kino version 1.3.1 I'm working with.  There isn't any 
libavcodec package in the portage tree as far as I've seen, but there is 
a libavc1394 version 0.5.3. The highest version of lbdv is 1.0.0-r2.

Second)  I tried compiling the source so I could run the program through 
the gdb debugger.  When I ran the program without gdb it runs fine, but 
the same problem exists with the crashing.  However, when running the 
program through gdb it SIGSEGV because it can't find the magick.glade 
and kino.glade file.  The program was looking for them in 
/usr/local/share/kino/ and that path and the file don't exist.

Third) Then I did a make clean and ran configure with my own --prefix 
and copied the two .glade file to that location.  I redid the steps 
above running kino with and without gdb and to my surprise everything 
worked.  Except for some missing icons , which is understandable since I 
change the --prefix, everything I tested was functional.  I could open 
files and play them.

So now is the problem with the way kino is getting installed on Gentoo 
amd64 or am I picking up older files from previous versions that don't 
work?  Any ideas?  I think we're getting closer?

Thanks,
dave
