|
|
I've emerged EVMS successfully, however, I don't get the evmsn utility. I don't have X on this machine, so I have -gtk in the USE flags.
| Code: | These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild R ] sys-fs/evms-2.5.1 -debug -gtk +ncurses 0 kB |
and this is the configure command displayed from the ebuild
| Code: | ./configure --prefix=/usr --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --datadir=/usr/share --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var/lib --libdir=/lib --sbindir=/sbin --includedir=/usr/include --disable-gui
|
I thought maybe that "--disable-gui" was breaking it, so I did
| Code: | data-1 root # USE="ncurses gtk" emerge -pv --nodeps evms
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild R ] sys-fs/evms-2.5.1 -debug +gtk +ncurses 0 kB |
which removes the "--disable-gui" flag from configure, but still no luck.
no evmsn or evmsgui
| Code: |
data-1 root # evms
evms evms_metadata_backup evms_query
evms_activate evms_metadata_restore evmsd
evms_gather_info evms_mpathd evmsd_worker |
I suppose it could have something to do with these rather restrictive use flags I have set (simple headless fileserver, don't want any extra stuff I dont need):
| Code: | USE="samba -oss -apm -arts -avi -bitmap-fonts -cups -emboss -encode \
-font-server -foomaticdb -gif -gpm -gtk -gtk2 -imlib -kde -gnome \
-libg -mad -mikmod -motif -mpeg -oggvorbis -opengl -pdflib -png -qt \
-quicktime -sdl -svga -truetype -truetype-fonts -type1-fonts -X -xv \
-berkdb -pam -perl evms"
|
Anyone know if any of these might be causing it?
Thanks in advance!
No, nevermind, I just commented out the USE lines of my make.conf, and tried the emerge again (adding only -gtk to the command line) and I still didnt get evmsn.
What do I need to do to get that utility to compile?
Update:
Watching the configure carefully shows this:
| Code: | configure: checking which EVMS user interfaces to build:
configure: building cli
configure: not building gui ... disabled by user
configure: not building text-mode ... requires glib library
configure: building utils |
Perhaps the ebuild needs to be updated, if the "ncurses" USE flag is set, then glib is a dependancy
Update2:
emerged glib then evms, still no evmsn. Same message as above, can't find glib.
Any thoughts on what else I can try?

| I vaguely remember hitting this problem a while ago and fixed it by adding +gtk to the use flags. It appears to be a bug where ncurses and gtk are tied together. Not sure if it has been fixed since. |

Yeah, solved this awhile ago, forgot to update. See the bug for details
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=83503
Essentially, the evmsn needs glib-1.2 specifically. Forcing the emerge of that fixed it. |
