Bug 109274 – Xorg-Server (0.99.1_p20051013) needs dependencies to build.

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description robustah 2005-10-14 06:57:01 UTC]

I decided to upgrade to the hard masked version of xorg-server but I ran into
some problems. Firstly you need to install x11-libs/libXres-0.99.0 and
x11-libs/libxkbui-0.99.0 to actually get it to compile. It would probably be a
good idea to add them to the dependencies. And the other problem was that
libxkbui missed the amd64 keyword. After emerging x11-libs/libXres-0.99.0 and
adding the ~amd64 keyword to x11-libs/libxkbui-0.99.0 everything worked fine.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Use amd64 keyword or ~amd64.
2. Try to install xorg-server-0.99.1_p20051013

Actual Results:  
The installation was stopped because xorg asked for some dependencies , and they
weren't installed.

Expected Results:  
The dependencies should have been installed automatically by the xorg-server ebuild.

I'll add the libs hard-coded for now.  Donnie, xkbui is for the graphical config
tool and Xres is for dmx stuff.  Do I smell a useflag for graphical config?

Also adding amd64 and ppc as x11-libs/libXres needs ~ppc and x11-libs/libxkbui
needs ~amd64 ~ppc.

[Comment 2 Joshua Baergen (RETIRED) 2005-10-14 09:29:52 UTC]

Oops, adding amd64 and pcc now.

Please look at previous comment.

[Comment 3 Daniel Gryniewicz (RETIRED) 2005-10-14 10:30:01 UTC]

Hmmm... Lots of modular X packages need amd64 flags.  I've been meaning to get
to it, but I haven't yet.  I guess now is the time.

[Comment 4 Daniel Gryniewicz (RETIRED) 2005-10-14 11:14:28 UTC]

Everything I use for my modular X is now keyworded ~amd64, including the ones
mentioned here.

We should probably hack up a patch to make xorgconfig switchable too, then we
can hide them behind USE=minimal.

[Comment 6 Luca Barbato 2005-10-14 16:51:39 UTC]

Both marked ~ppc

[Comment 7 Joshua Baergen (RETIRED) 2005-10-21 08:25:46 UTC]

The bug as stated is fixed.  More USE flags will come as time permits...
