Posted: Tue Jul 23, 2002 5:18 pm Post subject: Can't emerge gnome2/gnucash |
|
|
Hi,
I just installed Gentoo this week-end, I installed 1.2 and everything went fine. I use blackbox (and I'm trying fluxbox ), and I want to emerge gnucash which I use for my budget. However, it needs gnome2 (or at least a huge part of it).
When I type "emerge gnucash", it starts and compiles a few dependencies, but can't compile "pango" and stops there. I talked to a few other people here who also installed Gentoo 1.2 and they had the same problem. I noticed in the forum that most people who talk about gnome2 seem to use Gentoo 1.3. Is it possible to do it with 1.2? How?
Many thanks in advance...

Hi,
I tried and tried, still to no avail, I can't get "emerge gnucash" to work . I emerged many "packages" needed by gnucash one by one when possible, and everything works OK, except for pango-1.0.3 (and subsequent), I have dozens of errors when compiling viewer-qt.cc in /var/tmp/portage/pango-1.0.3/work/pango-1.0.3/examples :
Code: | Function src_compile, Line 31, exitcode 2
paralell make and serial make failed |
Could I simply remove this (compilation of examples, or viewer-qt.cc)? I also had a compilation problem with nethack that disappeared when I added temporarily "-X -kde -gnome" to my USE variable.

Hi,
(back from vacation, hence the slow response )
I hope it wasn't me who made you (Spider) an irrate programmer with my posts!
I'll post it to bugzilla. Here's the "fix" that made it work for me and my friends:
- emerge pango
- wait until configure is complete and compilation has started and ^Z
Code: | cd /var/tmp/portage/pango-1.0.3/work/pango-1.0.3/examples
mv Makefile Makefile.gentoo |
-then create a new Makefile similar to this:
Code: | all:
echo "all!"
install:
echo "install!" |
then fg your emerge job and here you go, it works. I really don't know if it's a nice way or not to do it, since I'm quite new to portage/emerge/etc. but at least for me it worked and allowed me to emerge gnucash properly. I figured it was ok to remove this from the compilation since it was just an example.
However it raises a new question for me, because this example was "viewer-qt.cc", so I figured it was using Qt, but in my /etc/make.conf, when I tried to add "-qt" to my use variable, it (the configure script for pango) still tried to look for Qt, compile for it, etc. Is it normal?
