Description Scott H 2009-09-02 08:51:53 UTC

recordmydesktop reports that it was not built with JACK support, although the jack useflag is used.  

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  echo "media-video/recordmydesktop jack" >> /etc/portage/packages.use
2.  emerge recordmydesktop
3.  recordmydesktop -d --use-jack 0
4.  recordmydesktop reports "recordMyDesktop is not compiled with Jack support!"



Expected Results:  
I'd like to be able to use jack with recordmydesktop....

I was able to get it to compile with JACK support by adding "-DHAVE_LIBJACK -ljack" to the end of my CFLAGS in make.conf.   This is not a fix at all since this shouldn't be there for other packages.  I don't know how to update the ebuild to enable this to be there.  I tried and failed...

I found this solution at the forums at sourceforge here:

Attach build.log and config.log of the build,
when you didn't use the workaround.

How to I prevent the destruction of /var/tmp/portage/media-video/recordmydesktop-0.3.8.1?  Since the compile was successful, it is deleted.

Here is the build log.

here is the config log.

Comment 5 Scott H 2009-09-03 06:51:38 UTC

I attached both the build.log and config.log.  Since I couldn't figure out how to prevent emerge deleting the working directories after the completion of a successful emerge, I stopped the emerge just short of deleting the work directories (I think).  These are the build and config log files from that.

Comment 6 Rafał Mużyło 2009-09-03 08:18:05 UTC

OK, it's an upstream bug.
They fixed it in svn r587 (release was at r584).

Closing the bug as it was fixed upstream.

It would have been a lot better if the patch was backported to the released version. It's just one more line to the ebuild

+1

recordmydesktop is still broken in gentoo and we don't know when the new version will be release. Please fix it since it's trivial.

Thanks,
