Bug 312021 – gnome-extra/gnome-power-manager-2.22.1: compilation failure with xorg > 1.6

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Robert Trace 2010-03-30 01:16:22 UTC]

With xorg-1.7 headed towards stable (http://blogs.gentoo.org/remi/2010/03/29/call-for-testers-xorg-1-7-going-stable and bug #308521), I unmasked it on my stable system and tried to compile.

X itself built fine, but a rebuild of gnome-power-manager-2.22.1 failed because of a missing header.  This has been discovered before in bug #302557 and bug #300846 (and probably bug #307393 too), but it was previously written off as "don't mix stable and unstable".  With xorg-1.7 going stable, it's now a problem.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add current xorg-1.7 stablization to package.keywords (per Remi's instructions)
2. emerge -1 =gnome-extra/gnome-power-manager-2.22.1


Actual Results:  
During compilation:
...
gpm-dpms.c:42:36: error: X11/extensions/dpmsstr.h: No such file or directory
make[4]: *** [gpm-dpms.o] Error 1

Expected Results:  
gnome-power-manager should compile.

Hum, I'd forgotten about gnome-power-manager. If we can stabilize Gnome 2.28 Soon (tm), I don't mind waiting for it before stabilizing Xorg.

Thanks

Reporter: please try gnome-extra/gnome-power-manager-2.22.1-r1

It is planned to stabilize this along with X.org 1.7

Looks good.  gnome-extra/gnome-power-manager-2.22.1-r1 fixes the compilation problem indicated above and everything seems to be working.

Thanks!

I will add this package to the X.org stabilization list.
