I have to reconstruct this from memory as the issue has worked itself out by re- emerging the affected apps. However, the original problem was emerging transcode. configure would always fail thusly: checking whether libquicktime support is requested... yes checking for pkgconfig support for libquicktime... yes checking for lqt-config... /usr/bin/lqt-config checking how to determine LIBQUICKTIME_CFLAGS... pkg-config checking quicktime/lqt.h usability... no checking quicktime/lqt.h presence... no checking for quicktime/lqt.h... no configure: error: libquicktime requested, but cannot compile quicktime/lqt.h It appears pkg-config is looking for the quicktime header in /usr/include/ quicktime first. This dir was owned by media-video/cinelerra-cvs-20050801, and NOT used by libquicktime (which uses /usr/include/lqt) The issue was resolved by uninstalling cinelerra AND remerging pkgconfig and libquicktime (in that order) Not sure if this is a real issue or just an unfortunate concatenation of emerge history on my system... Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
Transcode not build also, because lqt.h in another dir: checking for pkgconfig support for libquicktime... yes checking for lqt-config... /usr/bin/lqt-config checking how to determine LIBQUICKTIME_CFLAGS... pkg-config checking quicktime/lqt.h usability... no checking quicktime/lqt.h presence... no checking for quicktime/lqt.h... no configure: error: libquicktime requested, but cannot compile quicktime/lqt.h !!! Please attach the config.log to your bug report: !!! /var/tmp/portage/transcode-0.6.14-r3/work/transcode-0.6.14/config.log !!! ERROR: media-video/transcode-0.6.14-r3 failed. !!! Function econf, Line 495, Exitcode 0 !!! econf failed !!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, NOT this status message.
Hmmm, what's the status here?
*** Bug 119912 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
People still keep filing bugs about these bogus includes, this needs to be fixed.
cinelerra includes and relies on "Quicktime4Linux". We need to figure out what software checks for, and expects, libquicktime vs qt4l to see which should go there, then either put a workaround in the ebuild, or submit an upstream patch. Are these two projects aware of each other?
This has been fixed in cinelerra-cvs-20051005 http://sources.gentoo.org/viewcvs.py/gentoo-x86/media-video/cinelerra-cvs/cinelerra-cvs-20051005.ebuild?r1=1.2&r2=1.3
Fixed (by workaround). Please reopen if there's still a problem.
