Full Text Bug Listing

When trying to merge gnome-vfs-1.18.1 the following compilation error occurs:

i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -shared  .libs/file-method.o .libs/fstype.o

Apparently, when it tries to build libfile.so, it includes as shared objects
/usr/lib/libattr.so and /lib/libacl.so; however, there aren't dynamic versions
of these libraries, only static:

$ whereis libattr libacl
libattr: /usr/lib/libattr.la /usr/lib/libattr.a /usr/libexec/libattr.la
/usr/libexec/libattr.a
libacl: /lib/libacl.a /lib/libacl.la /usr/lib/libacl.a /usr/lib/libacl.la


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge gnome-vfs
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Compilation error

Expected Results:  
Correct installation

there is something wrong on your system:

$ whereis libattr libacl
libattr: /lib/libattr.so /usr/lib/libattr.la /usr/lib/libattr.so
/usr/lib/libattr.a
libacl: /lib/libacl.so /usr/lib/libacl.a /usr/lib/libacl.so

trying reinstalling acl and attr before recompiling gnome-vfs please.

Well, there must be something really wrong, since neither sys-apps/attr nor
sys-apps/acl are installed in my system... Are they strictly required by
system? Or just optional?


Anyhow I'm going to install both them and try, I'll tell you then.

Right, after merging sys-apps/acl and sys-apps/attr I could install gnome-vfs
properly. However, I wonder whether those packages should have been installed
automaticly through internal dependencies?

BTW, dunno if this is relevant, but I wasn't reinstalling gnome-vfs, it was
part of a fresh install of gnome-light.

$ equery depends attr
sys-apps/acl-2.2.44 (>=sys-apps/attr-2.4)
sys-apps/coreutils-6.9-r1 (acl? sys-apps/attr)

$ equery depends acl
app-editors/vim-7.1.087 (acl & kernel_linux? sys-apps/acl)
net-misc/rsync-2.6.9-r3 (acl & kernel_linux? sys-apps/acl)
sys-apps/coreutils-6.9-r1 (acl? sys-apps/acl)

so in short it's a dependency of coreutils if you have acl USE flag on.
coreutils and rsync are system packages.

That doesn't explain why you have this files you mentionned without the
packages they come from. @herd if somebody could enlighten me :)

it seems gnome-vfs checks for attr and acl at configure time but got tricked
because you don't have the .so but there is no switch to turn it off or on. I
guess we'll have to fix it and bug upstream about this.

*** Bug 194930 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

got a fix for this and the kerberos bug, need some more polish and I'll fill an
upstream bug.

fix is in CVS fill free to reopen if it doesn't solve your problem.

The problem is back in gnome-base/gnome-vfs-2.20.1:

checking for getxattr in -lattr... yes
checking for acl_get_file in -lacl... yes

This is in the modules/ subdir and is introduced through ACL_LIBS in
configure.in. The current 2.2.0 patch in the tree only adds the configure
option but doesn't prevent ACL_LIBS from getting set, so we need another patch:

yes you are right. you can leave the AC_SUBST out of the if/fi because it's set
to "" before the checks. I'll take care of this later this morning unless you
beat me to it.

Committed the fix with the slight adaptation you suggested. Closing for now.
