Building the psemu plugin psemu-peopssoftgpu-1.17 fails with the following
error:
make: *** No rule to make target `/usr/X11R6/lib/libXxf86vm.a', needed by
`all'. Stop.
installing libXxf86vm didn't help (/usr/X11R6 has been obsolete for ages).
Reproducible: Always.
Steps to reproduce: emerge psemu-peopssoftgpu
Expected result: An installed psemu-peopssoftgpu
Actual result: Error.
2 things: I normally don't use portage, although I have configured it so that
I can use it if needed. I tested with it after you said "worksforme" and the
ebuild still bails. I just attached the output of both emerge --info and
paludis --info so that you can see how my system is configured. I've also got
some other stuff to add/correct.
First, Steps to reproduce (using portage):
emerge -C libXxf86vm
emerge psemu-peopssoftgpu
Sorry, I left the first line out earlier.
Second, further information about my config, not listed in either --info file:
$ ls /usr/X11R6
ls: cannot access /usr/X11R6: No such file or directory
Paludis did not create the /usr/X11R6->/usr symlink, if it was even supposed to
(my entire system is built with paludis, not portage), and I have not created
it by hand for compatibility purposes yet. Even if the symlink was indeed
supposed to have been created by portage/paludis, the first part of this bug
still stands: psemu-peopssoftgpu-1.17 apparently has a hidden dependency on
libXxf86vm.
