 Posted: Thu Feb 12, 2009 3:14 am Post subject: how to correct the makefile for sfml ebuild |
 |
|
i was trying to write an ebuild for sfml http://www.sfml-dev.org/
the makefile has DESTDIR, DESTLIBDIR, DESTINCDIR. should be using $(DESTDIR)/$(PREFIX). how can i tell it the install dir ?
could anyone suggest how to fix this or some www page that could help explain how to fix ?

yes, i did all that. sorry, i should have said that in my first post 
i was using that ebuild. that works kinda but has problems. there is a QA issue with linking. i asked in #gentoo-dev-help and i think zlin said i had to fix the makefile. the makefile is using DESTDIR as PREFIX, and it needs to be changed so that it uses both variables correctly, this is what i am trying to do, create a makefile patch. |

Ok, that is kind'a easy 
First we need the unpacked sources, let's assume <ebuild> is the ebuild you have, unpacking is as follows:
| Code: | | ebuild <ebuild> unpack |
(you need the full ebuild directory or ebuild directory as current directory)
The unpacked source folder should be at the following directory: /var/tmp/portage/media-libs/sfml-1.4/work
"Change dir" to it. Do the following, that will be our reference copy:
| Code: | | cp -R sfml-1.4 sfml-1.4-old |
Now change your Makefile in directory sfml-1.4. Create the patch as follows (you should be in directory work):
| Code: | | diff -Naur sfml-1.4-old sfml-1.4 >correct-Makefile.patch |
Now you can move the patch to the files directory in your ebuild directory (by the way it should be a local portage, not being synced by rsync).
Concerning your ebuild, you need the src_unpack function in your ebuild:
| Code: | src_unpack() {
unpack ${A}
cd "${S}"
epatch "${FILESDIR}/correct-Makefile.patch"
} |
Finally you need a new digest or Manifest for your ebuild:
| Code: | | ebuild <ebuild> digest |
Ok, now your ebuild should work.

nice, thanks for the help. but i have not made the patch yet ( that would have been the next question). i was trying to figure out how to fix the makefile. do you know the correct usage for PREFIX and DESTDIR ? perhaps you could look at the makefile ?
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/sfml/SFML-1.4-sdk-linux.tar.gz
src/SFML/Makefile
thanks

In general PREFIX stands for the part of the path to add before another part of a path.
DESTDIR stands for the directory, to which to install to.
Concerning the Makefile, following lines need to be fixed:
| Code: | export DESTDIR = /usr
export DESTLIBDIR = $(DESTDIR)/lib
export DESTINCDIR = $(DESTDIR)/include |
to the following, which allows the correct install (first to the image directory, next to the system):
| Code: | export PREFIX = /usr
export DESTLIBDIR = $(DESTDIR)$(PREFIX)/lib
export DESTINCDIR = $(DESTDIR)$(PREFIX)/include |
This allows the setting of a PREFIX, usually /usr or /usr/local and the DESTDIR usually ${D} which contains /var/tmp/portage/media-libs/srfm-1.4/image/

Have you tried emerging it?
I can't find any error, this should be ok.

Hello, I tried to pick up your ebuild to install the 1.5 but there is a path problem: includes gets installed in /usr/usr/include/SFML ... tried without fixing paths but problem is even worse (I install it on usr/include... instead of /usr/include).
Someone having an ebuild for 1.5 ? |
