Bug 107585 – xpdf binary doesn't compile

• Status: VERIFIED NEEDINFO
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Adam Carheden 2005-09-29 04:14:55 UTC]

configure produces:
configure: WARNING: Couldn't find X / Motif -- you will be able to compile
        pdftops, pdftotext, pdfinfo, pdffonts, pdftoppm, and pdfimages,
        but not xpdf
I do have the 'motif' use flag set, openmotif is installed, and
/usr/lib64/libXm.so exists.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set motif use flag
2. emerge xpdf


Actual Results:  
configure: WARNING: Couldn't find X / Motif -- you will be able to compile
        pdftops, pdftotext, pdfinfo, pdffonts, pdftoppm, and pdfimages,
        but not xpdf

Expected Results:  
Found the motif library and compiled xpdf

I had exactly the same problem with xpdf-3.00-r10. A downgrade to xpdf-3.00-r8
fixed the problem.

I've added 3.00-r10 to my package.mask file.

can you please try xpdf 3.01 ? I fixed those issues in the new release

[Comment 5 Luis Medinas (RETIRED) 2005-10-09 17:18:37 UTC]

reopen if you notice the same problems with 3.01. I plan to stablize 3.01 asap.
