• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Garen 2003-01-07 15:24:11 UTC]

# ebuild kde-3.1_rc6.ebuild package                 
>>> Install kde-3.1_rc6 into /archive/tmp/portage/kde-3.1_rc6/image/ category 
kde-base
strip:
>>> Completed installing into /archive/tmp/portage/kde-3.1_rc6/image/

>>> Done.


Never seen that one before..and some others seem to have built it fine.  
Possible bug in ebuild?

please post the output of 'emerge info'. thanks.

Did you compile and install before trying to package it?

[Comment 4 Garen 2003-01-08 16:31:32 UTC]

No, although I am running rc5 right now if thats of any consequence.

[Comment 5 Hannes Mehnert (RETIRED) 2003-01-09 02:07:58 UTC]

well, i can reproduce your error, but it seems to be invalid... 
kde-3.1_rc6.ebuild doesn't install anything (same other kde-x.x.ebuilds don't do). 
kde ebuilds only depend on kdelibs, kdebase,... 
so FEATURES=buildpkg emerge kde-3.1_rc6 builds kdelibs-3.1_rc6,  
kdebase-3.1_rc6,... 
 
or did i get you wrong? 

[Comment 6 Garen 2003-01-09 15:28:56 UTC]

Why invalid if you can reproduce it?

It worked fine for rc5 and 3.0.5.  I tried just a plain "emerge -b kde-
3.1_rc6.ebuild" but got:

!!! all ebuilds that could satisfy "~kde-base/kdeaddons-3.1_rc6" have been 
masked.
!!!    (dependency required by "kde-base/kde-3.1_rc6" [ebuild])

!!! Error calculating dependancies. Please correct.

And I don't see them listed in my /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask file.

[Comment 7 Hannes Mehnert (RETIRED) 2003-01-10 07:43:56 UTC]

well, what i wanted to say: 
-this ebuild kde-3.1_rc6.ebuild package shouldn't package anything cause 
kde-3.1_rc6.ebuild doesn't install anything (it only depends on all other 
kde-base/kde* ebuilds) 
-kde-3.1_rc6 ebuilds are no longer masked via package.mask, it is keyworded with 
~x86, cause that's the "better" way [tm] ;) 
 
so, to build kde-3.1_rc6 packages, please do: ACCEPT_KEYWORDS=~x86 emerge 
-b kde 
 
thanks. 
 

[Comment 8 Garen 2003-01-10 14:16:09 UTC]

I see, I didn't know about the keyword thing.

However, I don't want to use emerge - I want to use ebuild.  That way I can 
build packages for other machines.

("ACCEPT_KEYWORDS=~x86 ebuild kde-3.1_rc6.ebuild package" fails)

I could just go into the subdirectories and manually do "ebuild <whatever> 
package" but thats more tedious tan a simple "ebuild kde-3.1_rc6.ebuild 
package" :)

[Comment 9 Hannes Mehnert (RETIRED) 2003-01-14 11:12:13 UTC]

ACCEPT_KEYWORDS=~x86 ebuild kde-3.1_rc6.ebuild package should work. 
if not, please report your error. is it the same as the initial report? 

[Comment 10 Garen 2003-01-15 10:31:27 UTC]

It doesn't..  same error:
# ACCEPT_KEYWORDS=~x86 ebuild kde-3.1_rc6.ebuild package 
>>> Unpacking source...
>>> Source unpacked.

>>> Install kde-3.1_rc6 into /archive/tmp/portage/kde-3.1_rc6/image/ category 
kde-base
man:
strip:

[Comment 11 Garen 2003-01-24 21:45:26 UTC]

Can now be built as only packages with emerge -B instead, so closing this.
