My machine does not have X11 installed, and I have '-X' in my USE flags. However compiling mjpegtools 1.6.2 gives the following error: (cd .libs && rm -f liblavplay.la && ln -s ../liblavplay.la liblavplay.la) if gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I.. -I/usr/include -DG_LOG_DOMAIN=\"lavtools\" -DLAVPLAY_VERSION=\"1.6.2\" -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/include/quicktime -I /usr/X11R6/include -I../utils -I/usr/include/jpeg-mmx -mcpu=i686 -march=i686 -O3 -march=pentium2 -funroll-loops -pipe -mno-sse2 -Wall -Wunused -MT lavplay.o -MD -MP -MF ".deps/lavplay.Tpo" \ -c -o lavplay.o `test -f 'lavplay.c' || echo './'`lavplay.c; \ then mv -f ".deps/lavplay.Tpo" ".deps/lavplay.Po"; \ else rm -f ".deps/lavplay.Tpo"; exit 1; \ fi /bin/sh ../libtool --mode=link gcc -mcpu=i686 -march=i686 -O3 -march=pentium2 -funroll-loops -pipe -mno-sse2 -Wall -Wunused -o lavplay lavplay.o ../utils/libmjpegutils.a liblavplay.la liblavjpeg.la liblavfile.la -lpthread -L/usr/lib -Wl,-rpath,/usr/lib -lSDL -lpthread -lX11 gcc -mcpu=i686 -march=i686 -O3 -march=pentium2 -funroll-loops -pipe -mno-sse2 -Wall -Wunused -o .libs/lavplay lavplay.o -Wl,-rpath -Wl,/usr/lib ../utils/libmjpegutils.a ./.libs/liblavplay.so ./.libs/liblavjpeg.so -L/usr/include/jpeg-mmx ./.libs/liblavfile.so -L/usr/lib /usr/lib/libquicktime.so /usr/lib/libjpeg.so -L/usr/local/lib /usr/lib/libdv.so /usr/lib/libglib.so /usr/lib/libSDL.so -lm -ldl /usr/lib/libasound.so -lvga -lpthread -lX11 /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.2/../../../../i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find -lX11 collect2: ld returned 1 exit status distcc[3202] ERROR: compile on localhost failed make[2]: *** [lavplay] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/mjpegtools-1.6.2/work/mjpegtools-1.6.2/lavtools' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/mjpegtools-1.6.2/work/mjpegtools-1.6.2' make: *** [all] Error 2 !!! ERROR: media-video/mjpegtools-1.6.2 failed. !!! Function src_compile, Line 77, Exitcode 2 !!! compile problem Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge unmerge xfree86 2. ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" USE="-X" emerge mjpegtools 3. seems to be a problem with configure.in -- it checks if X_DISPLAY_MISSING is defined in X_CFLAGS, but it should probably check CFLAGS or some other variable. observe my config.log excerpt: | #define HAVE_LIBDL 1 | #define HAVE_LIBDV 1 | #define X_DISPLAY_MISSING 1 | #define HAVE_X 1 | #define HAVE___PROGNAME | /* end confdefs.h. */ so it notices that X is missing, but the test for X_DISPLAY_MISSING didn't execute correctly, so it set HAVE_X. Here is the relevant configure.in code: dnl ********************************************************************* dnl Lets find where xwindows lives on this machine. Punt if not found. AC_PATH_XTRA have_x=false if test x"-DX_DISPLAY_MISSING" = x"$X_CFLAGS"; then AC_MSG_WARN(can not find X11) else have_x=true AC_DEFINE(HAVE_X, 1, [Whether XFree86 is available]) fi AM_CONDITIONAL(HAVE_X, test x$have_x = xtrue)
Just added the patch to this version aswell, should be soon in portage. Thanks for reporting. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 36771 ***
