Created attachment 105125 [details] The build error
same here... also with 0.8.6-r1
Please post the *full* output of emerge -pv vlc wxGTK
I do not think this is arch-relevant, but emerge went fine on my ~x86 box with: [ebuild R ] x11-libs/wxGTK-2.6.3.3 USE="X gnome joystick opengl sdl unicode -debug -doc -odbc" 18,519 kB [ebuild R ] media-video/vlc-0.8.6-r1 USE="X a52 aalib alsa cdda cddb dts dvd flac gnutls hal httpd libcaca libnotify live matroska mod mp3 mpeg ncurses ogg opengl oss png rtsp samba sdl seamonkey skins speex stream svg theora truetype vcd vlm vorbis win32codecs wxwindows xinerama xml xosd xv -3dfx (-altivec) -arts -avahi -bidi -corba -daap -debug -directfb -dvb -esd -fbcon -ggi -lirc -nsplugin -optimisememory -shout -svga -upnp -v4l" 0 kB while failing on my ~amd64 with almost the same: [ebuild R ] x11-libs/wxGTK-2.6.3.3 USE="X gnome joystick opengl sdl unicode -debug -doc -odbc" 0 kB [ebuild U ] media-video/vlc-0.8.6-r1 [0.8.6] USE="X a52 aalib alsa cdda cddb dts dvb dvd flac gnutls hal httpd libcaca libnotify lirc live matroska mod mp3 mpeg ncurses nsplugin ogg opengl oss png rtsp samba sdl seamonkey skins speex stream svg theora truetype v4l vcd vlm vorbis wxwindows xinerama xml xosd xv (-3dfx) (-altivec) -arts -avahi -bidi -corba -daap -debug -directfb -esd -fbcon -ggi -optimisememory -shout (-svga) -upnp (-win32codecs)" 0 kB One thing to note though, my amd64 has: [I--] [ ] x11-libs/wxGTK-2.4.2-r4 (2.4) [I--] [ ~] x11-libs/wxGTK-2.6.3.3 (2.6) while the working x86 only has 2.6 (more recent install)... I'll take a look and see if some packages still need 2.4
Hrm, that might be it, if 2.4 is around and something does not work as intended. wx team, can someone help with this? :)
Created attachment 105358 [details] list of emerge packages since last working vlc build Compilation of 0.8.6 worked until i did update-world on the Jan, 2nd. I attached the list of Packages (created with genlop) I installed/upgraded since then. Please note that the install of vlc-0.8.6 on Jan, 2nd ( the first in the list) finished without error. I did try to uninstall wxpython because it was the only upgrade to wxwidgets related stuff during the watched period (although it shouldn't have any influence on the vlc build.. but you never know ;-) Then I tried to reinstall wxGTK... but again no success with vlc. I also have both wxGTK slots installed: [I--] [ ] x11-libs/wxGTK-2.4.2-r4 (2.4) [I--] [ ~] x11-libs/wxGTK-2.6.3.3 (2.6) Btw below you find the full output of "emerge -pv vlc wxGTK": -------------------- These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!

All right... it looks like a bug in vlc's configure script, moving /usr/bin/wx-config out of /usr/bin will result in: configure:58789: checking for wx-config configure:58820: result: no While the ebuild does pass parameters like "--with-wx-config", the configure takes "standard" wx-config, which is 2.4 if still installed
you are right... it's the wxGTK 2.4 installation I removed the 2.4 slot after checking that none of my installed packages uses it any more. After that I had to remove /usr/bin/wx-config manually and do a "ln -s /usr/bin/wx-config-2.6 /usr/bin/wx-config". Now vlc builds again. I'm only wondering why it built flawlessly on Jan, 02 before I did my update-world which didn't touch wxGTK.
I've changed the ebuild of 0.8.6-r1 so that it passes the correct WX_CONFIG value, hopefully it will work now. Sync in an hour or two and try again.
