Hi all,

Anyone who knows what's going on overhere? Came up when I tried to compile the panel of xcfe 4.4, now I'm stuck there;

Code: Select all

Thanks very much!

Anyone? Must be more xfce users in the gentoo community. Seems like a logical combination.

AFAIK the version you are using of XFCE is hardmasked, so I would advise you to fill a bug report, however:

ewarn "This is a beta ebuild. Please do not file bugs for any of the"
ewarn "packages included in this meta-pacakge as they will all be"
ewarn "forwarded upstream and the bugs closed as INVALID."
einfo "Bugs specific to the ebuilds themselves are welcome."

It looks like you aren't compiling xfce4-panel from the tree. You should try using the ebuilds in the tree (you will need to unmask them and add an entry in package.keywords).

It's probably hardmasked, if it's there at all. I downloaded the sources myself and the first part of the compilation process, up till the panel, worked just fine. So it's not something with portage I think. It's more some environment variable I guess. Though I did set the adviced one on the xfce site correctly.

If you have consulted the xfce documentation for building it manually, and it still failed you should post a bug on http://bugzilla.xfce.org

why?

Mmm, yes perhaps, though I'm not sure this is a bug. I mean, it didn't fail with other people. I did log-in to my normal account, typed 'su' and started the process. Perhaps that's also a wrong way of introducing new programs to the environment..

And xfce and gentoo seem logical, since ppl using gentoo are choosing it for it's compiling way of going, thus for performance and same holds true for the programmers behind xfce. Anyway, that's off-topic.

I think all of those are from either:

libxfcegui4/libxfcegui4.h
libxfce4util/libxfce4util.h

You might want to double check the includes and the include path.

Because Gentoo is known as a quick, sleek OS, and XFCE is known as a quick, sleek UI?

Ok, and where should I check them? Not in the source-code I assume...should not be the normal way of doing.

ummm....

You're ignoring the hard-mask [which is probably on there for a reason].
You're bypassing the portage tree.
You're downloading source to build manually.

But you don't want to touch the source because that's not normal?

You will probably need to wait then, until someone else researches the bugs & fixes the source/ebuild.

Ok ok, got your point

I'm a bit of a tweaker.

On the other hand, it is in portage, masked or not. So, should probably at least compile I guess. I am going to try to built it using the normal portage tree, since that's much cleaner anyway and I like to have a clean system. Perhaps there's some variable which isn't set proparly, the way I tried to compile it last time. I'll update things like gcc as well, just to be sure.

I'll let you guys know about any progress.

That's why we use Gentoo, right?

No guarantees there. That's one of the reasons for a hard mask. It's possible that version of the app is just plain broke on current Gentoo systems right now.

Quite right, and the ebuild can try to setup the PATHs in case of any differences in Gentoo, and make sure any requirements are installed, etc. Some ebuilds have to do alot more than just configure && make && make install to get an app installed & running succesfully on Gentoo.

Our Gentoo Devs are a great bunch of guys (and gals - I'm sure there's got to be one in the bunch somewhere)!

I like your style.

Brains AND humor, good combination when you're tweaking.

It seems I didn't have all the packages needed to make it run. Portage is compiling quite a few more, hope xfce isn't growing too much.
I'm guessing the problem will be solved soon.
