Hi,

after emerging wxPython I got the following error-message. Does anybody know, how to fix that. I'm keen on playing around with wxPython ;-)


Code:

/usr/i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find -lGLU
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1

!!! ERROR: The ebuild did not complete successfully.
!!! Function src_compile, Line 17, Exitcode 1
!!! (no error message)

!!! emerge aborting on  /usr/portage/dev-python/wxPython/wxPython-2.3.2.1.ebuild .



Greetings Gordon

Hi!

Please see https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2050

I cannot reproduce this, so I think it is related to your X install and not the wxPython ebuild.

If you have further info to add to the bug, please do. If someone can give me the info so that I can reproduce this, we'll reopen and fix it :D

I got a similar error when i tryed to do # emerge system

The error i got was with sys-apps/fileutils/
so what i did to resolve the problem was to just remove fileutils and do # emerge rsync

So then i could proceed :)

Don't know if it helps but it worked for me.

It is installed by the package xfree (mine 4.2.0-r.) (/usr/lib/libGLU.a), mesa can also provide it but is not recommended when using xfree 4.2.0. The library provides opengl functions.

Hope it helps releive the pain, lX :wink:

Well I seem not to be getting libGLU.a from the xfree-4.2.0-r9 package, so maybe that is the problem.

Mesa-glu seemed to fix the problem only for a very narrow range of fix, since my wxPython program seems to core dump. So I don't recomend that to any one. :oops:

I am adding opengl to my use line and emerging xfree now

Tried emerging this today and got the same error.
my libGLU.a is at /usr/X11R6/lib/libGLU.a
and I have a nvidia card with the drivers for it.

Have you checked if the line /usr/X11R6... is in /etc/ld.so.conf, well it should be. or try
Quote:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/X11R6/lib emerge ..


Maybe it helps, lX

note: to use the opengl libraries with xfree you need to run update-opengl nvidia first, you should do this after emerging xfree again. Has nothing to do with your problem, but with using the right (nvidia) modules.
