VLC 2.0.7 through 2.1.4 will not emerge because of an autopoint error:
| Code: | >>> Failed to emerge media-video/vlc-2.0.7, Log file:

Other posts have suggested re-installing gettext, however this is not successful. After reinstalling gettext, the same error occurs, and autopoint.out looks like this:
| Code: | ***** autopoint *****
***** PWD: /var/tmp/portage/media-video/vlc-2.0.7/work/vlc-2.0.7
***** autopoint --force
autopoint: *** Missing version: please specify in configure.ac through a line 'AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION(x.yy.zz)' the gettext version the package is using
autopoint: *** Stop.
|
I am not sure why reinstalling gettext didn't fix this. I also tried removing gettext and then reinstalling it, but it made no difference.
The emege errors/autopoin.out are all the same for versions 2.0.7 through 2.1.4.
Thank you for your help with this frustrating error. |

Hi Drasica,
possibly only a problem of dev-perl/XML-Parser and eventually enough to remerge only this.
But cause lots of different trouble here the last time, you eventually have to do a perl-cleaner --reallyall.
If it fails, take a look into this, for a solution: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-987072-highlight-perl.html
Much success, Andy.

Thanks for your suggestions, but they did not change anything.
I reinstalled the XML Parser, and it made no difference. I then successfully ran the perl cleaner, and it also made no difference.
Finally, after both the XML Parser reinstall and the cleaner, I re-emerged gettext again, and it still made no difference. It is still an autopoint error every time, and it is still because autopoint cannot get the gettext version. |
