 Posted: Wed Nov 20, 2002 5:17 am Post subject: gstreamer 0.4.2-r1 ./configure fails [and SOLUTION!] |
 |
|
when emerging gstreamer 0.4.2-r1 in the configure file it compares gtk-doc version numbers using the >= symbol. the only problem is that the latest version of gtk-doc is 0.10 as in zero dot ten, and gstreamer requires 0.7 or zero dot seven, thus the ./configure fails.
To fix this, I just changed the >= to a != and emerged again after re-tar/bzipping and changing the md5 around. Granted this is a horrible workaround hack, but it does work.
Mabye someone wants to look into that and change the configure file?

update: now I get an error about sgml docbook not being found...
| Code: |
warning: failed to load external entity "file:///usr/share/sgml/docbook/yelp/docbook/html/chunk.xsl"
compilation error: file ./../xsl/html.xsl line 9 element import
xsl:import : unable to load file:///usr/share/sgml/docbook/yelp/docbook/html/chunk.xsl
continues for a few lines with make[3] make[2] make[1] errors that seem not worth my time copying over from my desktop screen ;)
|
the file it is looking for is located in /usr/share/sgml/docbook/xsl-stylesheets-1.52.2/html/chunk.xsl I believe, someone may want to look into this as well
Sorry, I have to study for a chemistry test tomorrow so I can't really learn how to be a developer right now, maybe someone with some free time can take what I have said and make gstreamer work a little better.
Gstreamer wound up being one of my dependencies for gnome 2.1.2, that is why I am taking my time to post all of this.
Thanks!
If / when I get it working I will post my findings again.

after soft linking the correct directory structure, gstreamer 0.4.2-r1 emerges fine for me.
If I have time on this weekend and no one has fixed this yet, I will take a lookinto getting it setup and have a new bzip2 file and ebuild ( if needed ) if possible.
Now back to studying for chemistry....
