 Posted: Mon Jan 06, 2003 9:23 pm Post subject: kde-base 3.0.5 fails to build |
 |
|
i trying to do an emerge -u world but when emerging kde-base it hangs on the following error:
| Code: |
checking for Qt... configure: error: Qt (>= Qt 3.0.3) (library qt-mt) not found.
Please check your installation!
For more details about this problem, look at the end of config.log.
Make sure that you have compile Qt with thread support!
|
I have QT 3.1.0-r1 installed and i´ve also got the qt-mt library...
anyone knows how to fix this problem?
and where can i find config.log

Hi there!
I've got the same problem. I made an emerge -u world. QT compiled successfully. then portage tried to emerge arts-1.0.5a with the same error message after configure. At this point my system won't update any further. I tried about 10 times...
I'm getting desperate  |

Or whoever did care about order of paths...
First of all configure is not telling the truth (this occurs just too often). It's NOT about qt-mt at all. In the config.log I found the small line
| Quote: | | /usr/lib/libXft.so.2: undefined reference to `XRenderQuerySubpixelOrder' |
Browsing through the web I found out that this has something to do with xft and fontchooser and so on, but desperately I tried
| Code: | $ ldd /usr/lib/libXft.so.2
libXrender.so.1 => /usr/lib/mozilla/libXrender.so.1
[...]
|
AND THIS IS A BIG NONO! I don't know who messed this up, but this made my system unstable for weeks! As I update more and more packages, the difference to that old version, shipped with mozilla was getting more and more incompatible! (many other packages failed as well) No packages completely independent of mozilla should load libraries from mozilla-paths....
IMHO Mozilla shouldn't compile its xft on its own, but use the system-xft. Anyway, a QUICK fix is to update your mozilla to the freshest version. I had 1.2.1 and as soon I updated to 1.3a my system compiled again.
So if you are using mozilla 1.2.1, UPDATE and get some sleep again...  |

Hello, same problem, cannot compile kde-base.
When I check the lib dependencies, I get that :
| Code: | ldd /usr/lib/libXft.so.2
libXrender.so.1 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXrender.so.1
[...] |
Somehow, I don't understand why it's a "nono"

The "nono" referred to "libXft.so.2" of an application outside mozilla using a library from mozilla-paths. This yields unpredictable results.
I am now assuming you had a look in /var/portage/arts[...] into the config.log and also found that "undefined reference"-message close to the qt-mt-line.
In your case it's then using the appropriate library but it seems to be outdated- this is something portage should know.<sigh>
Then my rough guess to your problem is to update your xft by
| Code: | | # emerge /usr/portage/x11-libs/xft/xft-(something more current) |
But if you have a different message in your config.log, then it's a different cup of tea. |
