 |
|
Hi.
I've been had with the idea of upgrading KDE from 3.5.7 to 3.5.8. Package kdemultimedia fails with a strange error about checking xine. It pretends an adequate version xine was detected from xine-config --version but another xine version exists (random version number given each time):
| emerge -uD kde: | *** 'xine-config --version' returned 1.1.10, but XINE (-1.0.248990528)
*** was found! If xine-config was correct, then it is best
*** to remove the old version of XINE. You may also be able to fix the error
*** by modifying your LD_LIBRARY_PATH enviroment variable, or by editing
*** /etc/ld.so.conf. Make sure you have run ldconfig if that is
*** required on your system.
*** If xine-config was wrong, set the environment variable XINE_CONFIG
*** to point to the correct copy of xine-config, and remove the file config.cache
*** before re-running configure |
| emerge -uD kde #second run: | *** 'xine-config --version' returned 1.1.10, but XINE (-1.0.2113453296)
*** was found! If xine-config was correct, then it is best
... |
| emerge -uD kde #third run: | *** 'xine-config --version' returned 1.1.10, but XINE (-1.0.-1641168832)
*** was found! If xine-config was correct, then it is best
... |
| equery l xine: | [I--] [ ] media-libs/xine-lib-1.1.10.1 (1)
[I--] [ ] media-video/xine-ui-0.99.5 (0) |
Wtf???

See if an env-update makes any difference.

No, it doesn't. I think it's a problem with int/longint in a C test program that is created and invoked during the ./configure phase. I got this problem on my Core2 Duo laptop but not on my AthlonXP. The former is 64bit and the second 32bit architecture.
| /var/tmp/portage/kde-base/kdemultimedia-3.5.8-r1/work/kdemultimedia-3.5.8/xine_artsplugin/configure.in.in: | #include <xine.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
int
main ()
{
int major, minor, sub;
char *tmp_version;
system ("touch conf.xinetest");
/* HP/UX 9 (%@#!) writes to sscanf strings */
tmp_version = (char *) strdup("$min_xine_version");
if (sscanf(tmp_version, "%d.%d.%d", &major, &minor, &sub) != 3) {
printf("%s, bad version string\n", "$min_xine_version");
exit(1);
}
if ((XINE_MAJOR_VERSION != $xine_config_major_version) ||
(XINE_MINOR_VERSION != $xine_config_minor_version) ||
(XINE_SUB_VERSION != $xine_config_sub_version))
{
printf("\n*** 'xine-config --version' returned %d.%d.%d, but XINE (%d.%d.%d)\n",
$xine_config_major_version, $xine_config_minor_version, $xine_config_sub_version,
XINE_MAJOR_VERSION, XINE_MINOR_VERSION, XINE_SUB_VERSION);
printf("*** was found! If xine-config was correct, then it is best\n");
printf("*** to remove the old version of XINE. You may also be able to fix the error\n");
...
}
else
{
...
}
return 1;
} |
I think the problem lies either in the declaration of the "int" variables or in the "sscanf" instruction. (I think I remember scanf must use different format strings between 64- and 32- bit platforms as far as integers are concerned.)
EDIT: Here's my (rather dirty) workaround; I changed kdemultimedia-3.5.8-r1.ebuild as follows:
| /usr/local/portage/kde-base/kdemultimedia/kdemultimedia-3.5.8-r1.ebuild: | ...
# fix bug 128884
filter-flags -fomit-frame-pointer
# Not used anymore and scheduled for removal.
export DO_NOT_COMPILE="${DO_NOT_COMPILE} mpeglib mpeglib_artsplug"
rm configure
# Patch xine_artsplugin configure script
epatch ${FILESDIR}/kdemultimedia-xine.patch
kde_src_compile
}
|
And here's kdemultimedia-xine.patch:
| /usr/local/portage/kde-base/kdemultimedia/files/kdemultimedia-xine.patch: | --- old/xine_artsplugin/configure.in.in 2008-02-16 01:21:12.000000000 +0100
+++ new/xine_artsplugin/configure.in.in 2008-02-16 01:21:21.000000000 +0100
@@ -1635,6 +1635,7 @@
char *tmp_version;
system ("touch conf.xinetest");
+ return 0;
/* HP/UX 9 (%@#!) writes to sscanf strings */
tmp_version = (char *) strdup("$min_xine_version"); |
Quite dirty for it bypasses Xine checks but after two hours crawling at night into the package files I wanted to have it on my machine, now! for I knew Xine was Ok
EDIT: Instead of the above hack copy the patch contents that schachti is referring to in the section below.

There is already a bug report in b.g.o; a patch is provided, too.

Can somebody help me figure out how to apply this patch? I've tried:
| Code: | | patch -i kdemultimedia-3.5.8-xine-x.y.z.w.patch /usr/portage/kde-base/kdemultimedia/kdemultimedia-3.5.8.ebuild |
and
| Code: | | patch /usr/portage/kde-base/kdemultimedia/kdemultimedia-3.5.8.ebuild kdemultimedia-3.5.8-xine-x.y.z.w.patch |
to no avail.
TIA!

That involves creating an overlay tree for kdemultimedia. Basically- Create directory /usr/local/portage/kde-base/kdemultimedia
- Edit /etc/make.conf and add variable PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage"
- Copy kdemultimedia ebuild to the portage overlay (e.g. cp -a $(equery w kdemultimedia) /usr/local/portage/kde-base/kdemultimedia)
- Copy the patch into the ./files directory and add an epatch instruction to the ebuild.
This is a rough approach and quite summarized because you might miss several files from the ./files directory, where the ebuild lies.
I gave a hint in the ebuild excerpt I posted above. It's much simpler since you start with a copy of an original ebuild.

There have been somewhat helpful hints in the right direction, but nothing has been complete, so here goes, with apologies for the plagiarism:
1. Ensure that your make.conf has the line PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage"
2. Create directory /usr/local/portage/kde-base/kdemultimedia
3. Copy files in /usr/portage/kde-base/kdemultimedia into the new directory as follows:
cp -a /usr/portage/kde-base/kdemultimedia/* /usr/local/portage/kde-base/kdemultimedia
4. Get the patch using:
curl -o kdemultimedia-3.5.8-xine-x.y.z.w.patch 'http://bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=143457&action=view'
5. Copy kdemultimedia-3.5.8-xine-x.y.z.w.patch into /usr/local/portage/kde-base/kdemultimedia/files
6. Edit the ebuild kdemultimedia-3.5.8-r1.ebuild adding the line:
${FILESDIR}/kdemultimedia-3.5.8-xine-x.y.z.w.patch"
to the patches section of the ebuild, being sure that it ends with the double quote ("), removing the double quote from the line above it.
7. Add the newly edited ebuild to the digest with the right file size with:
ebuild /usr/local/portage/kde-base/kdemultimedia/kdemultimedia-3.5.8-r1.ebuild digest
You should now be able to emerge kdemultimedia.
Sometimes, the real veterans here don't realize how little we ordinary users really know.

Just a side note: if I understood correctly you don't need to compute digests anymore with portage 2.1.4*. It has just entered the stable branch.

I'm x86 stable with sys-apps/portage-2.1.4.4 installed. I definitely had to set the digest for the amended ebuild. Took me quite a bit to re-learn how to do too. I have mixed feelings about the feature. I'd probably shoot a hole in my foot without a little error checking.

Indeed, that's the first time in 3 yrs Gentoo that I used something like an overlay 
Many thanks for the excellent help, figueroa.
Cheers,
