Bugzilla Bug 152478

dev-python/PyQt-3.14.1-r2 and kde-base/pykde-3.5.5-r1 fail to compile due to
the *python-2.5-compat.diff patch. Without the patch both packages compile
fine. Both with the same error message:

error: cannot convert `ssize_t*' to `int*'


here is the output from pykde:

I got the same problem here and it was fixed by not applying the python 2.5
patch.

same here. could it be those only compile if you actually have python 2.5
emerged? AFAIK 2.5 ist still hardmasked..

just investigated, and the changelog shows the only difference is python 2.5
compatibility.

so maybe it would be a good guess to hardmask recent sip and PyQt, and put them
to ~arch as soon as python 2.5 hits ~arch as well? if i understand correctly
(probably not, hehe <g>) you only need those updates if you run python 2.5. as
usual i might be wrong, though ;)

hmm, i did so in my /etc/portage/package.mask for now.

Same to me, maybe its problem only for 64bits archs.

> Same to me, maybe its problem only for 64bits archs.

I've got the very same problem.

can the 64 bit arches try out the latest sip and pyqt that are in portage?  I
think it should fix all of the problems, esp with python 2.5

With these lines in /etc/portage/package.keywords...

=dev-python/PyQt-3.17 ~amd64
=dev-python/sip-4.5 ~amd64

...the packages dev-python/PyQT and dev-python/sip compile successfully on my
AMD64 box. I have no idea how or what to test beond that point. If you need me
to try something, please let me know.

yes, but pykde will not build with sip-4.5

alculating dependencies... done!

:-((

Same problem here (i'm on AMD64 stable)

pykde-3.5.5-r1 (stable and unique version available now in Portage) depends
from dev-python/3.14.1-r2.

Both packages don't compile fine because the applying of
*-python-2.5-compat.diff patch.

I propose the patches for these ebuilds (the patch is applied only if
python-2.5 is installed)

good news anyone!
works fine using qscintilla 1.6, not 1.7!
took me a long time finding this one out ;(
so maybe the pykde ebuild could be changed to that?

=dev-python/sip-4.2.1-r1
=dev-python/PyQt-3.14.1-r2
=dev-python/qscintilla-1.6

thx for listening, HTH others.
[~amd64 here]

my /etc/portage/package.mask:

>=dev-python/qscintilla-1.7
>dev-python/sip-4.2.1-r2
>dev-python/PyQt-3.14.1-r2

Is it really imposible to include the if statement in the PyQt and pykde
ebuilds?

great, now qscintilla 1.6 vanished from the portage tree ;(

@hook:
your problem is fixed:

[ebuild   R   ] dev-python/qscintilla-1.7.1  USE="-doc" 0 kB
[ebuild   R   ] dev-python/sip-4.5.2-r1  USE="-debug" 0 kB
[ebuild   R   ] dev-python/PyQt-3.17  USE="-debug -doc -examples" 0 kB [1]

those compile fine, if you are at ~arch
yes, using python 2.4

however, the pykde ebuild will not compile using those above versions, not even
if i edit the pykde ebuild manually. (kde-base/pykde that is)

dunno, but is there any other reason to use sip and PyQt apart from pykde?
just wondering..
over here nothing else depends on those programs except pykde.

Strange question.
User programs that are built on PyQt and not pykde.
I have lots of those.

well, so how do we get pykde to compile now? :?

any devs still watching this?

The one from pykde has been fixed (I discovered the same problem without
knowing this bug :/) but I haven't had time to look at PyQt.
Letting python herd know, maybe they can help here.

well, i figured PyQt compiles fine if i use qscintilla 1.5.1, so perhaps
someone might make this a dependency for PyQt 3.14.1-r2?

IIRC it also compiled fine using qscintilla 1.6.something, but this one
vanished from portage :-(

btw.. i already reported the qscintilla problem here 2006-11-30 13, but noone
seemed to care ;(

new packages are going to marked stable in bug #163802
