Please paste all information from 'emerge info' in your bug report (I guess you
must have overlooked this instruction in the form for filing bugs).

It looks to me as though there is an unlisted dependancy on motif for the X app
in this package; I expect to see that you do not have motif in your USE flags.

i'm sorry, i saw no deps there so i tought it was not needed.

i've lastest openmotif installed.

That's weird then, because the missing header files such as "Xm/Xm.h" should
have been installed with openmotif. Perhaps there is a path problem... try
this:

find /usr -name Xm.h

find /usr -name Xm.h
/usr/include/openmotif-2.2/Xm/Xm.h


however the ebuild has not the motif deps

True, the dependency needs to be put in, but that fix won't help you since you
already have openmotif installed. I think you need to run motif-config to
create the proper links to your motif headers.

that's something wrong with motif and motif config:

see here:

root@blight Xm # pwd
/usr/include/Xm
root@blight Xm # ls -l
totale 0
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 16  1 apr 23:39 Xm -> /usr/include//Xm/
root@blight Xm #                         


that's a cyclic link!!!!

please fix
rm -fr /usr/include/Xm/
ln -s /usr/include/openmotif-2.2/Xm/  /usr/include/Xm/

for openmotif / motif-config

compilation works, but linking fails.
...after that...i have:

This is not actually a linking problem, it looks more like a configure problem

This command should be producing util.o:

gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.     -I/usr/X11R6/include -c util.c

Instead, you have a missing path after -I so the -c is misinterpreted as a path:

gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.     -I  -c util.c
                                       ^
missing ------------------------------/

Please attach the whole log from the emerge to show where things start to go wrong (probably during configure). Also you might want to check that you do not have a messed up link to your X libraries, since there was a time when xorg was undergoing some reorganization and had some problems with bad links to headers and things (and I see you do use ~x86 rather than only stable)

-I/usr/X11R6/include is == -I/usr/include

with new xorg builds.

my system is perfect. alla compiles/runs good.

only this package creates troubles

I wonder if this is some autoconf/automake bug... try this

cd /mnt/Dati/Gentoo/tmp/portage/pdv-1.5.1-r1/work/pdv-1.5.1/X11
grep CFLAGS config.status Makefile
make util.o


(CFLAGS is supposed to contain -I<X include path> which is then used in compiling the .o files)

[CUT]

as before

Aha, as suspected... that is a bogus value that the configure script set up for
CFLAGS. I have a patch for you to try

* copy the attached file pdv-1.5.1-x-config.patch into
$PORTAGE_OVERLAY/app-arch/pdv/files/

* copy the attached file pdv-1.5.1-r1.ebuild into
$PORTAGE_OVERLAY/app-arch/pdv/

* generate new digests with 'ebuild pdv-1.5.1-r1.ebuild digest'

* try the emerge again

(this assumes you have an overlay directory set up in /etc/make.conf)

however i'm pretty sure it can't work, it need autoconf to be called!
you patch .in file and not configure.

starting autoconf-2.59 in the main directory and in the X11 directory
it restarts configure and so on...but fails as before!

Ok try again with a new improved version that has a fixed patch (last one was
indeed buggy, sorry!) and an ebuild that regenerates the configure file. 

Created an attachment (id=59092) [edit]
pdv-1.5.1-r1.ebuild that applies patch AND regenerates configure script

Created an attachment (id=59093) [edit]
pdv-1.5.1-x-config.patch with couple bugs fixed

i'm not @ home now, i'll try this night.

works perfectly. 
 
please commit to portage. 
 
bye
