The latest democracy player works ok for me. 0.9.2.1, from the above mentioned overlay. There is a java bug; it crashes for me when calling java. But I've got NBC news, Democracy Now, and others downloading and operating fine. Make sure you have the correct use flags when you emerge xine-lib. You may have to emerge it again to get support for all the formats you need.
$ emerge -av xine-lib

Code:
media-libs/xine-lib-1.1.2-r3  USE="X a52 aac alsa altivec asf dts dvd esd fbcon flac gnome ipv6 mp3 nls opengl oss samba sdl theora v4l vcd vorbis xv -aalib -arts -debug -directfb -dxr3 -imagemagick -libcaca -mng -modplug -speex -vidix (-win32codecs) -xinerama (-xvmc)" VIDEO_CARDS="(-i810) (-nvidia) (-via)"

i have the same use flags for xine-lib, try playing a make (they are mp4) video and see what happens when its finished playing.

i will clear /~.democracy , perhaps there is too many changes between the last version i had installed, and something is conflicting

It does work fine and not crash after playing a video for me. I'm not sure if they are mp4; let me check. (NBC Nightly News and Meet the Press videos). I'm running PPC32bitUL/64bit kernel; so this might have something to do more with ppc / x86 and codec issues of some kind? Someone posted a bug on the democracy bug report page for this, it looks like (According to their forum).

------

EDIT: WAIT! I DO have the problem. The videos I was watching before were not mp4. I tried a mp4 video and Democracy DOES freeze at the end of the video.

That's the first time I see that for an ebuild

doensn't this patch will be forgeted the next time python will be updated with emerge -auvDN world?


yes that is because this is not an official ebuild until the official python ebuild is patched it will be like this (unless you find a workaround, I have try 2 different methods)
and yes it need to be applied everytime python is updated.

Please ask for https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=138647 to be applied since upstream won't

I wrote the ebuild and I'm the first one agains that.

neither the ebuild or democracy is ready for "mainstream" and since many people (without knowing what they are doing) are running ~arch this program will fail to compile on them and then they will probably be saying "Time to move on", because gentoo is getting crappier.

Allix,stmiller

I have found the same problem is an issue with the quicktime videos and fullscreen play and it's happening since 0.9.1 I haven't had the time to sit down and determine what is exactly happening.

I created this bug report which is more sane.
https://develop.participatoryculture.org/democracy/ticket/5122

but I'm almost certain is an issue with the xine useflags.

on the other hand please do not post that kind of bug reports, they are useless. your making a complain about an unofficial package on a unofficial repository. with useless information to the development team.

it says it very clean on sunrise http://www.gentoo-sunrise.org/sunrise/wiki/SunriseFaq
also there is no core developer of democracy on gentoo, so all we can get is testing, and make sure the ebuild is not broken before going there.

I'm trying to emerge democracy player (0.9.5.1) with the sunrise overlay, and I'm getting a pkgconfig error that I don't know how to fix;
Code:
Package config error:
pkg-config --list-all outputted the following error:
Variable 'prefix' not defined in '/usr/lib/pkgconfig/libview.pc'

Is my pkgconfig package not setup correctly? Issuing the command direct from the command line yields;
Code:
 pkg-config --list-all
blkid                       blkid - Block device id library
xf86rushproto               XF86RushProto - XF86Rush extension headers
taglib                      TagLib - Audio meta-data library
libberyldecoration          libberyldecoration - Port of compiz Window decoration library for Beryl (Heliodor and Aquamarine)
fontsproto                  FontsProto - Fonts extension headers
com_err                     com_err - Common error description library
gtk-sharp                   Gtk - Gtk
gtkglext-x11-1.0            GtkGLExt - OpenGL Extension to GTK+ (x11 target)
Variable 'prefix' not defined in '/usr/lib/pkgconfig/libview.pc'

TIA

Sorry for that. I had a problem with my /usr/lib/pkgconfig/libview.pc file. Here's what it was originally;
Code:
prefix=${prefix}
libdir=${exec_prefix}/lib
includedir=${prefix}/include

Name: libview
Description: VMware's Incredibly Exciting Widgets for GTK+
Version: 0.5.6
Libs: -L${libdir} -lview @PACKAGE_LIBS@
Cflags: -I${includedir} @PACKAGE_CFLAGS@

After looking at other .pc files in that directory I changed the first few lines to be similar and came up with;
Code:
prefix=/usr
exec_prefix=${prefix}
libdir=${exec_prefix}/lib
includedir=${prefix}/include

Name: libview
Description: VMware's Incredibly Exciting Widgets for GTK+
Version: 0.5.6
Libs: -L${libdir} -lview @PACKAGE_LIBS@
Cflags: -I${includedir} @PACKAGE_CFLAGS@

Then my pkg-config --list-all command completes successfully, and the emerge of democracy completes. I'm assuming that the libview.pc file was supplied by my VMWare Workstation 6.0 install. Because there was no ebuild in the vmware overlay for the latest version, (and the betas are time crippled, even if you're registered like me), I installed it from the installer from VMWare. I'm guessing that this is where the incorrect libview.pc came from. Anyway I don't know if editing the libview.pc file has some adverse effects elsewhere, but at least now emerging democracy worked fine.

Hi all,
short question: is there an ebuild for the "new" miro player in Gentoo portage?

Best regards, Matthias

Code:
emerge app-portage/gentoolkit
equery l -p miro

Code:
emerge app-portage/portage-utils sys-apps/grep
qsearch -a | grep -i miro

http://packages.gentoo.org/search/?sstring=miro

All three of the above means of checking indicate that there is no package by that name presently in the tree, though there is an ebuild by that name and an accompanying patch attached to a bug which is the only result for a search for "miro" in the Gentoo Bugzilla.

Look at this thread. In spite of the name change, I bet they will soon update it at the sunrise servers:

PostPosted: Sat Jul 28, 2007 10:16 pm    Post subject: Democracy/Miro Reply with quote

I'm having trouble installing the miro/democracy player. I've done this so far:

Code:

emerge -av layman
echo "source /usr/portage/local/layman/make.conf" >> /etc/make.conf
layman -f
layman -a sunrise
emerge Miro


This returns:
emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "Miro".

So I tried emerge democracy and this is what I got:

Code:

>>> Downloading 'ftp://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/pculture.org/democracy/src/Democracy-0.9.5.1.tar.gz'
--23:08:47--  ftp://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/pculture.org/democracy/src/Democracy-0.9.5.1.tar.gz
           => `/usr/portage/distfiles/Democracy-0.9.5.1.tar.gz'
Resolving ftp.osuosl.org... 140.211.166.134
Connecting to ftp.osuosl.org|140.211.166.134|:21... connected.
Logging in as anonymous ... Logged in!

==> PASV ... done.    ==> RETR Democracy-0.9.5.1.tar.gz ...
No such file `Democracy-0.9.5.1.tar.gz'.

!!! Couldn't download 'Democracy-0.9.5.1.tar.gz'. Aborting.


I looked in that ftp and that file wasn't there, but I saw this instead: ftp://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/pculture.org/democracy/src/Miro-0.9.8.tar.gz
So I tried changing the ebuild so this is the tar is downloads, but portage won't let me install it now because its masked due to corruption.
Is there a way to install miro through an ebuild? Sorry I am new to gentoo, maybe there is some sort of "local" ebuild that I can emerge somehow but I don't know how to do this.

Did you run a
Code:
ebuild <name of ebuild> digest
on your modified ebuild?

You may have already done that, but figured I'd check :)

Why is not fixed ebuild from layman overlays sunrise now? :?:

It is very old ebuld
/usr/local/portage/layman/sunrise/media-tv/democracydemocracy-0.9.5.1.ebuild

I have it renamed in

/usr/local/portage/media-tv/miro/miro-1.2.4.ebuild

and changed "democracy" to "Miro" in this ebuild and run

ebuild miro-1.2.4.ebuild digest

eix miro
emerge -a miro

works now. :lol:
