synce-gnomevfs-0.9.0 fails to compile

Hi,

I'm triing to emerge synce.
Therefore synce-gnomevfs should be build, but I only get errors while compiling.

Has anybody an solution for me?

Did you solve the problem? Got the same error message here... Would like to know how to get this working!

has anyone gotten this to compile on amd64?

Hi,

you have to delete "-Werror" in Makefile after "./configure".

Best regards,
Whoopie

Absolutely fantastic!!! :-D

Thank you very much, Whoopy! Works like a charm now...

That's actually real dangerous. You just told the build to ignore the fact that the software is apparently not 64bit clean
(likely casting a pointer to an int). Whatever instability/corruption results from that is your own making. You should rather
file a bug or try to fix the issue.

Muppy · Posted: Sun May 28, 2006 9:00 am Post subject:

Well, you are right, it surely is dangerous and should be fixed in another way. However, to be quite honest, this piece of software is a "nice to have" and not really important for me. It's more important to have the other synce-tools running, which I have.

It was just annoying all the time when I did an 'emerge -uD world' that it got stuck there because of that error... I'm too much of a noob in gentoo to avoid compiling those packages which have dependencies to other already installed packages, but are not really needed. (Strange enough, it was always reported that other packages depend on synce-gnomevfs and therefore I cannot mask it. But, which other package(s)? All other synce packages were compiling and running smoothly...).

I submitted this bug ages ago.

I'll hold my hands up now and say that I don't know C, and the fix that I implemented could well be wrong.

The package seems to build and work OK for me, but I'd appreciate someone with C experience checking that the fix is technically correct before reopening the bug.

Cheers
Nigel

Hi,

have a look here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-extras-commits/2005-December/msg00496.html

They did it the same way.

And "-Werror" means: "Handle warnings as errors". And you have many warnings e.g. when compiling a kernel.

Best regards,
Whoopie

Hi, I have the same problem ... indeed, I could solve something.

First I have it with the amd64 (http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=102632) patch tries ..., unfortunately, has not functioned.

But with the help of the solution under http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=135043#c18 I was able to do at least everything emerge.

Then I did the following:

I am trying to compile synce and it fails at the synce-gnomevfs compile every time. I have tried to apply both of the patches mentioned but still cannot get it to compile. I am running an amd64 machine. This is the error I get...

Yes, it's possible to get synce-gnomevfs and amd64 working - I can browse/copy my CE Device contents but disabling "-Werrror" was not the way I got this working.
Disabling "-Werrror" showed me Gnome's "Bug Report" dialog while accessing the CE Filesystem

What to do?

While running the ebuild I got this error:

Great hack tuxatwork!
I have finally compiled synce-gnomevfs successfully; I suggest everyone need it to copy the original ebuild and the 0.9.0-gcc4.patch in the local overlay and modify the patch like this:

Applying synce svn version to your gentoo

I went out from official gentoo ebuilds because I think they won't apply a patch to an outdated version. Now I use synce the cvs version after checking the synce wiki.
Overlayed the latest synce cvs emerge with layman, adjusted the package keywords and ebuilded.

.. sorry, the following howto is "what I think about what I did last summer", maybe something is missing ..

1.) lay' the synce overlay, man
How to to this? Go to http://www.synce.org/index.php/Windows_Mobile_2005_Gentoo_SVN_Ebuilds
and look here -> Install & Configure layman

2.) adjust the package keywords to get the cvs
The latest cvs is is marked as version 9999 on gentoo. But versions 9999 are masked as missing.
So we have to accept something by unmasking missing and some else..

/etc/portage/package.keywords

Hi Folks,

I am not having a happy time of this. I think I have followed the instructions on the http://www.synce.org/index.php/Windows_Mobile_2005_Gentoo_SVN_Ebuilds site reasonably well. I come up with the error below:

Hi Raoul,

I can help partially, tried to reproduce your error by updating synce trunk ..

Thanks Tuxatwork,

That really did the trick.
