778 2002-02-20 02:32 0000 gnome-python doesn't build correctly on my box 2002-02-28 21:10:13 0000 1 1 1 Unclassified Gentoo Linux GNOME 1.0 RC6 r14 All Linux RESOLVED FIXED P2 normal --- 1 fusion@nmt.edu tod@gentoo.org fusion@nmt.edu 2002-02-20 02:32:44 0000 gnome-python's compile bombs out looking for capplet-widget.h. I fixed it in the ebuild by changing the line in the GNOME section of src_compile() from PYTHON="/usr/bin/python" CFLAGS="$CFLAGS --host=${CHOST} to PYTHON="/usr/bin/python" CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -I/usr/include/libcapplet1" ./configure --host=${CHOST} I believe that could be called a "dirty hack" but it made the compile happen on my box. tod@gentoo.org 2002-02-21 16:13:49 0000 Hmmm. Tried to reproduce this, but mine bombed on /usr/lib/libGL.la: no such file or directory :) I have xfree-4.2.0-r5 installed. gnome-python needs work :) fusion@nmt.edu 2002-02-21 16:39:51 0000 If I can talk to someone one-on-one about ebuilds and get some generic advice, I'll take this ebuild AND start contributing the five or so I have on my own box. But first all I want is for someone to email me and tell me what the common mistakes are, what the accepted formatting is, etc. What things I should do to ensure that my build is platform-agnostic. I'm also willing to pitch in on documentation. Hell, I love this distro, I just want to help! Anyone who gives me a bit of a tutorial I will take some of the burden off of. tod@gentoo.org 2002-02-23 22:40:12 0000 Hi! I just tried to reproduce this bug on my other machine and gnome-python merged just fine. This leads me to believe that there is a dependency problem with the ebuild, i.e. one that is need isn't there or doesn't specify a recent enough version. tod@gentoo.org 2002-02-23 23:32:52 0000 Hi! could you check what version of control-center you have merged? I had 1.4.0.1-r4 and gnome-python merged fine. I merged control-center-1.4.0.4 and remerged gnome-python and it was ok also? There's a new version of gnome-python. I think I'll bump the version of cvs. chouser@gentoo.org 2002-02-24 16:58:49 0000 I just saw this problem as well. I fixed it by adding to the ebuild: CFLAGS="$CFLAGS `/usr/bin/gnome-config capplet --cflags`" I had this problem with gnome-python-1.4.1-r3 and gnome-python-1.4.2 (just a renamed copy of 1.4.1-r3, not anything that's been put in CVS recently). The problem first showed up after I upgraded to python-2.2-r3 (from python-2.1.1-r4) and to control-center-1.4.0.4 (from, I think, control-center-1.4.0.1-r4) Hope this helps in the bug hunt. ;-) --Chouser blocke@gentoo.org 2002-02-28 21:10:13 0000 gnome-python-1.4.1-r4 builds on my system... Please reopen bug if it doesn't work for you...
