Bug 488116 – app-emulation/wine - improve multilib support

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Thomas Berger 2013-10-15 12:37:48 UTC]

app-emulation/wine pulls in app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-* packages. These are blocking against different libraries, build with ABI_X86_32.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Replace app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-* with correct native packages
2. try to emerge wine

Actual Results:  
no emerge possible

Expected Results:  
emerge works

There are many packages having fixed this already. The nvidia-drivers ebuild pa uses:
multilib? (
            || (
                 (
                    x11-libs/libX11[abi_x86_32]
                    x11-libs/libXext[abi_x86_32]
                 )
                app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-xlibs
            )
        )

Unfortunately, there are libraries in almost all emul-linux-x86-* packages (especially in emul-linux-x86-baselibs) which are needed by Wine but have not yet been converted to multilib.

The best we could do at the moment is optionally eliminate emul-linux-x86-xlibs and emul-linux-x86-opengl dependencies.

[Comment 2 Alexandre Rostovtsev (RETIRED) 2013-10-15 16:11:58 UTC]

Also, note that you can simply emerge any app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-* package with USE=abi_x86_32 to avoid the blocker. (For emul-linux-x86-* packages, USE=abi_x86_32 means "don't install libraries that would collide with multilib packages").

Of course, you are looking at an emul-linux-x86-* version from 8 months ago! Before the multilib conversion process started.

If you are experimenting with ABI_X86="32 64", you should be using ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~amd64" and emul-linux-x86-xlibs-20131008.

[Comment 5 Alexandre Rostovtsev (RETIRED) 2013-10-15 18:04:31 UTC]

Updated the dependencies, you should be able to get rid of emul-linux-x86-xlibs and -opengl now.

+  15 Oct 2013; Alexandre Rostovtsev <[e-mail]> wine-1.6.ebuild,
+  wine-1.7.0.ebuild, wine-1.7.3.ebuild, wine-1.7.4.ebuild, wine-9999.ebuild:
+  Update multilib dependencies and allow in some cases for individual libraries
+  with ABI_X86=32 to be used instead of emul-linux-x86-* (bug #488116, thanks
+  to Thomas Berger).
