xorg-x11-7.0-r1 fails on libx11

[urantiana]

Hello,

I'm trying to migrate to modular X(x11-base/xorg-x11-7.0-r1).
emerge -DuNv xorg-x11 fails on libX11:

It's just a suggestion.

I can't compile these packages because they need libX11

[RedAngel1789]

Hi everybody ! I am pleased to join this forum I have visited for 3 weeks, and it's the first time I really could not find my answer.

Well, I have the same error during the emerging of xorg-x11 7.0, a problem was encountered during libx11 compilation:
"
!!! ERROR: x11-libs/libX11-1.0.2 failed.
Call stack:
ebuild.sh, line 1539: Called dyn_compile
ebuild.sh, line 939: Called src_compile

x-modular.eclass, line 312: Called die

!!! emake failed "

Same problem, I tried twice, and I'm froze at this point...

For information, my computer's a laptop, Compal CL56 (xbook french computer v.7) with a Pentium M 1,7ghz and radeon 9700 that (finally!) worked nice with Direct Rendering (ati-drivers 8.25.x).
If anybody has an idea...
Thanks in advance

[hemna]

I have the same exact problem on 3 machines

[juantxorena]

Same problem here, and we are not the only ones. A bug report is opened, it says that we must recompile xproto before, but it doesn't work.

I don't want to offend anybody, but who is the genius who decided that modular X.org is stable? It's obvious that it isn't. Just search about this on forums or on bugzilla.

It seems there are a lot of missing dependencies in xorg-x11-7.0-r1.
I did "equery b file-missing-error" a lot of times. Gentoo-portage package dependencies information help me too.

[Philantrop]

It seems there are a lot of missing dependencies in xorg-x11-7.0-r1.

I doubt that. I've just set up two new systems and migrated earlier from 6.8.2 to 7.0. I haven't had a single problem.

I admit, there are a lot of postings like yours around currently but I have a feeling it's not portage messing systems up. :)

[Dralnu]

What arch ar you running? I did an upgrade to X11 Mod on x86 and it worked fine. The other arch are not yet out of testing (for obviously good reasons), so if you're working with another arch, you may want to A) Downgrade to the mono build, or B) Recheck your configuration. I know when I was building it, I went throught the whole ~186 packages and installed them, then I redid the configuration somewhere, and brought it down to ~25 or something drastic like that.

There are known issues with the other arches with deps being wrong or missing, so you may want to check and see if bugzilla has the problems listed there, and if not, report it and either fight it or downgrade, but if you're on x86, I'd check your config and go through the doc on it thats in the Gentoo Documentation section on the website and pretty much follow it to a T.

Hope that helped

[grofaz]

Well I followed the migrating to mod x wiki and updated to 7.0 just fine yesterday, BUT my fonts went all to hell, so I unmerged 7.0 and did a --depclean and revdep-rebuild, followed by an emerge -aK xorg-x11 to reinstall my binary 6.8.2.

All is well, except portage is broken. If I try to re-migrate to 7.0 I get build failures as above. I must have --depcleaned something I shouldn't have...maybe...but 6.8.2 works as advertised. I don't get it. If I unmerge 6.8.2 and emerge 7.0 why doesn't portage pull in what 7.0 needs to build??

[Philantrop]

If I unmerge 6.8.2 and emerge 7.0 why doesn't portage pull in what 7.0 needs to build??

Probably because portage thinks the stuff is already installed. Something must have gone wrong during the downgrade and the re-install from the binary package (I never use those but mask the offending package(s) and emerge the old ones from source).

I believe I tried that by unmerging 6.8.2 and them masking 7.0 followed by emerging -aD xorg-x11. I recall it also failed to build so some essential x11 header files must be missing. How do I check what's need/missing ?

[Philantrop]

Well, usually equery does a good job for one or two packages. If that doesn't fix it, I suggest an "emerge -e xorg-x11" which will recompile everything.

Will this work for mod x 7.0 too?

Yes. I don't know why but all "missed packages" I had to install "manually" were upgrades. All dependencies from libX11, libXt and other packages, for me.

I'm running x86 arch.

Now modular X is installed and working great.

Just double checking, Thank you!! :)

Getting all these prototype headers back into my system allowed me to compile libX11.

Now onto the next bit. Man, things got messed up....and even revdep-rebuild wouldn't clean anything up.....didn't catch any of this.

[Philantrop]

As you said: Most of these packages only include headers. revdep-rebuild checks for broken binaries/libraries only, so it can't catch these.

A tool checking for missing headers like revdep-rebuild does for binaries would theoretically be possible but the effort required on both its developer's and the users' side would be immense.

What could be done more easily is to use equery and its "f" parameter to check if all files a package claims to have installed are really around.

Hm... Actually, I think I'll give writing such a script a try just for fun. :-)

[Albert_Alligator]

Headers missing from many different areas.... I'm fighting this battle one package at a time.

now emerging xorg-server which has failed three times on multiple missing headers...

Here is where my problems get difficult again.

First, wxGTK won't compile, says openGL header gl.h not present. So, I find I need to emerge mesa.....and get this error

Code: Select all

 emerge mesa

And I'm a little lost as to what I can do to fix this one.

Any thoughts?

[Albert_Alligator]

Trying an emerge -evDa mesa

Gives me 90 files to download. I hope it won't bugger out on me in the middle somewhere....and I really hope it won't take forever to compile.

I'll let you know how it goes.

[bunsen]

Just an observation from my own experience. Perhaps a clue for the right people.

On three of four x86 systems, I've migrated xorg from 6.8 to 7.0 with only minor stopping points.

The other system is one I'd tried migrating on months ago. I got stuck and reverted to 6.8

Is this a common scenario for other people having libX11 trouble perhaps.

It sounds like to me their trying to upgrade on another arch, but no one has mentioned which one

[Albert_Alligator]

Well unfortunately for me, my system would not work with 6.8 either.... which was a little baffling.

Something happened with some package being updated (not sure which), and it completely buggered my system. I have not been able to recover yet.
