libmpeg3-1.5.2 error

Hello, I get an error when trying to emerge libmpeg which originally appeared to be required for an E17 library.
I am using:

Code: Select all

gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 4.0.0-beta20050402 (Gentoo Linux 4.0.0_beta20050402)
Copyright (C) 2005 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

Here is the error I recieve when trying to emerge:

Code: Select all

Any help is much appreciated.

Do you get the same error with a stable compiler (e.g. gcc 3.3.5)?

xcable · Post by **xcable** » Sat Mar 25, 2006 5:50 pm

Asmdroid you will have to compile libmpeg3 with a different version of gcc (older).

Code: Select all

gcc-config i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.4.5
source /etc/profile
emerge libmpeg3
gcc-config i686-pc-linux-gnu-4.0.1
source /etc/profile

This will switch gcc to 3.4.5 (emerge if you dont' have it), update the enviroment, compile libmpeg3, switch back to the new gcc, and update the enviroment.

This has worked for me.

Hi all,

I've got the same problem as Asmdroid, but I'm using the 3.4.6 gcc.

I've tried to use the "USE=hardened emerge --ask libmpeg3", but that give me a different error.
The error looks almost the same, but now it's the "GENERAL_BREG".

So no luck this time

Which CFLAGS are you using? For these kinds of errors it sometimes helps to use a more conservative setting. Sometimes, it also helps to use a "lower" -march setting.

moop2000 · Post by **moop2000** » Thu Apr 20, 2006 6:18 pm

I was getting a similar error, turned out to be bug [bug=130557]130557[/bug]. I emerged without the mmx flag, and it worked after that.

EDIT: Sorry, I meant to say mmx use flag.

LONGOBARD · Post by **LONGOBARD** » Thu Apr 20, 2006 7:08 pm

The same trouble, CFLAGS:

Code: Select all

CFLAGS="-O3 -mtune=pentium4 -mfpmath=sse -fomit-frame-pointer -msse2 -pipe"

Setting CFLAGS to "" give no result

red-wolf76 · Post by **red-wolf76** » Thu Apr 20, 2006 8:34 pm

Confirm setting media-libs/libmpeg3 -mmx in /etc/portage/package.use fixes it.

_loki_ · Post by **_loki_** » Fri Apr 21, 2006 6:31 am

Code: Select all

USE="-mmx" emerge libmpeg3

solves it..

red-wolf76's suggestion is better because if you re-emerge it, it will remember the USE flag for that one ebuild.

yamakawa · Post by **yamakawa** » Sat Apr 22, 2006 2:49 pm

The con for the fix is...when the developer(s) fix the problem and we are able to enjoy the advantage of using mmx USE flag, we cannot enjoy it without re-editing the package.keyword file, which we do not usually maintain a lot.

red-wolf76 · Post by **red-wolf76** » Sat Apr 22, 2006 4:20 pm

That's something I'll live with. The count of packages present in my package.keywords is usually far lower than ten. On the other hand, I'm something of an update-whore and perform a emerge --sync && emerge -uDNpvt world daily to check if stuff needs to be updated.

If I didn't include it in package.keywords, it would pop up all the time.

I agree, it's extra work checking up on the bug fix manually and then deleting it again... But I usually do that before toolchain updates, as I have to spend some time compiling there anyway...

_loki_ · Post by **_loki_** » Sat Apr 22, 2006 4:57 pm

moop2000:
I'd like to use the mmx FLAG, so I certainly do not include it in package.use and hope there is a fix on this one in the next release..

carpman · Post by **carpman** » Wed May 03, 2006 9:13 am

I have tried
media-libs/libmpeg3 -mmx in /etc/portage/package.use

but emerge still fails?

Iced-Tux · Post by **Iced-Tux** » Thu May 04, 2006 7:15 am

added libmpeg3 to portage.keywords and emerged with mmx

Compiled nicely.

It's the version libmpeg3-1.5.2-r3.

Good luck with it.

_loki_ · Post by **_loki_** » Thu May 04, 2006 7:58 am

what keyword did you set for libmpeg3? Which version did you compile then?

Iced-Tux · Post by **Iced-Tux** » Thu May 04, 2006 8:06 am

I addes libmpeg3 to the package.keywords so the version installed is now 1.5.2-r3.
I compiled once without mmx and once with mmx. Both tries compield fine.

_loki_ · Post by **_loki_** » Thu May 04, 2006 8:16 am

you have to set a keyword in package.keywords.. fe

Code: Select all

media-libs/libmpeg3 ~x86

or

Code: Select all

media-libs/libmpeg3 -*

but anyway libmpeg3-1.5.2-r3n is marked by ~x86 which is the version that won't compile with mmx for me..

can confirm that adding media-libs/libmpeg3 to package.keywords works with and without mmx, note no ~x86

and it doesn't work not having it in package.keywords?? That doen't make any sence..!

This is not the only file i have that works when in package.keywords without ~x86 but will not work if it is not ?

strange indeed.

_loki_ · Post by **_loki_** » Thu May 04, 2006 12:04 pm

well take it out and try again.. Shouldn't make any difference. I don't know what having a package in package.keywords without a keyword should do (I'd guess it does nothing), but I cannot have any influence on compilation. If there is one it influences the version you pull with emerge, but anyway libmpeg3-1.5.2-r3 is marked as ~x86, the x86 package is libmpeg3-1.5.2.. For usage of package.keywords see http://gentoo-wiki.com/TIP_package.keywords
The problems still is on, for me compilation with mmx USE-FLAG still fails.. (talking about libmpeg3-1.5.2-r3), if it works for you it cannot be related to package.keywords
