Bug 289578 – net-wireless/bluez-4.39-r2 and alsa-lib: dependency on extplug and ioplug ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Patrick De Pinguin 2009-10-18 13:04:40 UTC]

The bluez package does not compile if the 'extplug' and 'ioplug' ALCA_PCM_PLUGINS have not been used to compile alsa-lib.

* If extplug is missing, the following error occurs:

pcm_bluetooth.c:41:31: error: alsa/pcm_external.h: No such file or directory
(and a bunch of other errors after this)

* If you add extplug, but ioplug is missing, the following error occurs:

/usr/include/alsa/pcm_external.h:58:24: error: pcm_ioplug.h: No such file or directory
(and a bunch of other errors after this)


I believe the dependency on these alsa-lib use flags should be added to the bluez ebuild. I have done so in the proposed patch (see attachment).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge -v bluez
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Compilation errors.

Expected Results:  
Successful compilation

Patch to bluez ebuild

This patch adds the necessary USE flag dependencies of alsa-lib to the bluez ebuild.

I've updated this in my version of bluez in my overlay and it appears to be working just fine.  I can verify the poster's issues, and that they are resolved by this change.

Hi,

I just bumped into the same bug, and would almost have filed a bug report on it before I found this one.
Patch works nicely, please get it into portage.

Cheers,
Nico

Fixed for bluez 4.60 in bug #270859.
We can apply it for 4.39-r2 and close this bug.
