Bug 374853 – app-admin/eselect-opengl-1.2.2 prevents mesa from building on a fresh install (include file GL/glxproto.h is missing)

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Kfir Lavi 2011-07-11 15:00:08 UTC]

I'm compiling a fresh AMD64 system. 
mesa has a problem finding GL/glxproto.h

To solve the problem for now, I just ran this command:
for i in /usr/lib64/opengl/xorg-x11/include/* ; do ln -s $i /usr/include/GL/$(basename $i) ; done

It creates links to the original files that are located where mesa installation does not know. 

Regards,
Kfir

Reproducible: Always

Can you post a full build log please?

As you can see, glproto installs /usr/lib64/opengl/xorg-x11/include/glxproto.h without a link to /usr/include/GL/...

Seems to me that the mesa CFLAGS should contain also -I/usr/lib64/opengl/xorg-x11/include

Try eselect opengl set xorg-x11.

[Comment 5 Kfir Lavi 2011-07-13 08:33:03 UTC]

thedude kfir # eselect opengl list
Available OpenGL implementations:
  [1]   xorg-x11 *

So if by default xorg-x11 is chosen, then this problem should not occur. 

I did a world update, so it is possible I didn't read or choose some eselect features, but still as there is just one OpenGL in the eselect, it doesn't seem likely that this was the problem.

Is it working for you then after running eselect?

[Comment 7 Rémi Cardona (RETIRED) 2011-07-13 11:44:39 UTC]

Just had that bug this morning. Will try to take a look at it unless someone beats me to it.

Thanks

FTR, "eselect opengl set" refuse to work if mesa isn't properly installed (it can't find libGL.so and other libs).

And that's the problem: x11-proto/glproto's postinst silently fails...

That's what breaks the build. I just commented the "die" at the end of the patch above, ran 'eselect opengl set xorg-x11' and mesa built just fine.

Maybe eselect-opengl needs a --ignore-missing-libgl flag for glproto to work properly?

[Comment 11 Chí-Thanh Christopher Nguyễn 2011-07-13 15:04:38 UTC]

Fixed in eselect-opengl-1.2.3
