Description paulphilippe 2007-04-03 19:11:59 UTC
Good afternoon,
 
  I have been working on this problem for a for almost a a week now. Octave-forge refuses to compile due to a variable that is undefined. The "autoload" in the file PKG_ADD (in usr/share/octave/2.1.73/site/m/octave-forge/comm/ )appears to be undefined. The version of octave is 2.1.73-r2.  

I have attached a the config and build.log



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge octave-forge
2.
3. 

Actual Results:  
1. Error messages in configure process
2. Fails to compile and fails to install

Expected Results:  
Compile and install

Hi Paul-Philippe,

Thanks for your bug report. Could you please elaborate on 
why you think there is a problem with "PKG_ADD"!
By looking at your build.log it seems to me there rather is a
compilation problem

------------------------- snip --------------

ov-galois.cc: In member function 'virtual double octave_galois::double_value(bool) const':
ov-galois.cc:328: error: 'Vdo_fortran_indexing' was not declared in this scope
ov-galois.cc: In member function 'virtual Complex octave_galois::complex_value(bool) const':
ov-galois.cc:354: error: 'Vdo_fortran_indexing' was not declared in this scope

------------------------------

That said, could you please try with -O2 instead of -O3.

Thanks,
Markus
Comment 4 paulphilippe 2007-04-06 21:46:24 UTC
Hi Markus,

  YOu're right about the error the build log I just saw it as I was compiling again with -O2. Unfortunetely, the compiling process did not continue and stop at the same stage. The error about the PKG_ADD during the configure script :

Comment 6 Markus Dittrich (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-04-10 22:50:37 UTC
Hi Paul-Philippe,

Thanks for confirming. I'll have a look at the problem. Unfortunately,
I can't reproduce it here despite a fairly identical setup.

cheers,
Markus
Comment 7 MaratIK 2007-04-11 06:29:43 UTC
1. Actually, there is more than one file compile error. There is set of files and errors:

ov-galois.cc:328: error: 'Vdo_fortran_indexing' was not declared in this scope
ov-galois.cc:354: error: 'Vdo_fortran_indexing' was not declared in this scope
ov-fixed-mat.cc:315: error: 'Vdo_fortran_indexing' was not declared in this scope
ov-fixed-mat.cc:354: error: 'Vdo_fortran_indexing' was not declared in this scope
ov-fixed-complex.cc:80: error: 'Vok_to_lose_imaginary_part' was not declared in this scope
ov-fixed-complex.cc:254: error: 'Vok_to_lose_imaginary_part' was not declared in this scope
ov-fixed-complex.cc:280: error: 'Vok_to_lose_imaginary_part' was not declared in this scope
ov-fixed-cx-mat.cc:101: error: 'Vok_to_lose_imaginary_part' was not declared in this scope
ov-fixed-cx-mat.cc:356: error: 'Vok_to_lose_imaginary_part' was not declared in this scope
ov-fixed-cx-mat.cc:370: error: 'Vdo_fortran_indexing' was not declared in this scope
ov-fixed-cx-mat.cc:399: error: 'Vok_to_lose_imaginary_part' was not declared in this scope
ov-fixed-cx-mat.cc:412: error: 'Vdo_fortran_indexing' was not declared in this scope
ov-fixed-cx-mat.cc:441: error: 'Vok_to_lose_imaginary_part' was not declared in this scope
ov-fixed-cx-mat.cc:467: error: 'Vok_to_lose_imaginary_part' was not declared in this scope
ov-fixed-cx-mat.cc:493: error: 'Vdo_fortran_indexing' was not declared in this scope

2. Also, if I do after this errors 'make check' and then continue merging package sci-mathematics/octave-forge, then I faced with problem that /usr/bin/octave starts with such error messages:

error: `autoload'
undefined near line 23 column 1
error: near line 23 of file
`/usr/share/octave/2.1.73/site/m/octave-forge/comm//PKG_ADD'
error: source: error sourcing file
`/usr/share/octave/2.1.73/site/m/octave-forge/comm//PKG_ADD'

That error messages remain if I unmerge sci-mathematics/octave-forge.
And only again merging sci-mathematics/octave cure it. It seems like sci-mathematics/octave-forge and sci-mathematics/octave have files (one or more) which intersects with each other.
Comment 8 Markus Dittrich (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-04-11 12:44:06 UTC
The main reason for your problems is the fact that octave-forge thinks that the
installed octave has features that it doesn't in fact provide. E.g. your octave-forge
is compiled with  -DHAVE_DO_FORTRAN_INDEXING  which enables code the needs
Vdo_fortran_indexing which is long gone from octave's header files. 
I don't honestly know why octave-forge mis-detects that. That said, could both
of you please completely unmerge octave and octave-forge and re-emerge them.
If that works, great! If not, I can try back-porting code from cvs to cure this.

Thanks,
Markus
Comment 9 MaratIK 2007-04-11 12:57:46 UTC
Tried to

but error remains. :,-(
Comment 10 MaratIK 2007-04-11 13:20:05 UTC
Hmmm, this is very strange:

I try to emulate some line from configure script (changed $OCTAVE to octave):

shmyaka maratik # if test `echo 'disp(exist("do_fortran_indexing"))' | octave -qf`X != 0X ; then
> echo ok
> fi
ok

But(!):

shmyaka maratik # echo 'disp(exist("do_fortran_indexing"))' | octave -qf
0

Seems like "0X != 0X" is TRUE for "test `echo 'disp(exist("do_fortran_indexing"))' | octave -qf`X != 0X"

fix autoload bogus

Boy, octave-forge on your box seriously mis-detects a whole
bunch of stuff. Could you please check if the above patch fixes
the autoload bogus!

Thanks,
Markus
Comment 15 MaratIK 2007-04-11 14:49:11 UTC
there is no autoload in octave, but octave-forge's configure thinks
alternatively:
checking for autoload in Octave... yes

I check it manually:
maratik@shmyaka ~ $ octave
[... skipped ...]
octave:1> exist ("autoload")
ans = 0
octave:2> exist ("class")
ans = 5

I think that there is no need to patch *.cc files. Need to patch
configure.base:

if test `echo 'disp(exist("$1"))' | $OCTAVE -qf`X != 0X 
...

works incorrectly
Comment 16 Markus Dittrich (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-04-11 14:55:51 UTC
The patch I just posted should do just this.

Comment 17 paulphilippe 2007-04-11 22:40:14 UTC
Hi Markus,

   By applying the patches, octave-forge compiles properly. The only problem is I also get the same error as MaraTik when I launch octave. 

I will try again and keep you posted

Patch to fix the whitespace problem that causes this failure.

Rather than the previous patches, this patch should give you the needed results. It patches with a few offsets because it was against a different version...

Created attachment 116028 [details, diff]
Earlier patch #18 is not cure problem, this one is good

I think, it occures due to encoding (utf8) problem. So, `echo 'disp(0)' | octave -qf` does not give actually ASCII '0', but something other.
Then the comparement 'disp(exist("autoload"))' | $OCTAVE -qf`X with `echo 'disp(0)' | $OCTAVE -qf`X is more reasonable.

Hi MaratIK,

Thanks a bunch for tracking the problem down; quite a weird one, I must admit ;)
Just to make sure that everybody is happy (and since I can't reproduce it here)
could you and Paul-Philippe please confirm that by applying ONLY your configure-octave-enc.patch octave-forge compiles and works fine!

Thanks a lot,
Markus

For me configure-octave-enc.patch works fine (octave-forge compiles and works perfectly without any other older patches).

Btw, in addition I just want to point out that there is need to fix ebuild with this:
./configure wants --with-x, not --with-X. So, in ebuild $(use_with X) must be replaced with $(use_with X x).

Yes, thanks! I forgot to mention this in my previous post since I mainly wanted
to make sure that your patch fixes ALL the problems reported so far. 
If Paul-Philippe also has his problems resolved by your patch I'll apply it 
to portage (+your ebuild fix) unless it breaks horribly on my dev boxes ;)

Markus, may be it's time to remove !amd64 from the string in ebuild: 
"!amd64? ( ginac? ( sci-mathematics/ginac ) )" ?

I just have reported bug #174318, in which I requested stable mark for sci-mathematics/ginac-1.3.7 for architecture amd64(all tests passed).

I've just compiled octave-forge with ginac support on amd64 box. Symbolic mathematics work fine.

Hi all, 

  I apologize for the late reply ... I applied the latest patch (configure-octave-enc.patch) with the new ebuild and I still get the undefined autoload error message. I double checked the configure output and it seems that the correct version of Octave still cannot be detected.

I'm starting to believe that this maybe and issue with octave installation itself. I'll see if "emerge -eN octave-forge" won't solve the problem.

Hi, Paul-Philippe.

Just remove all PKG_ADD:

maratik@shmyaka ~ $ locate PKG_ADD
/usr/share/octave/2.1.73/m/plot/PKG_ADD
/usr/share/octave/2.1.73/m/miscellaneous/PKG_ADD
/usr/share/octave/2.1.73/site/m/octave-forge/comm/PKG_ADD
/usr/share/octave/2.1.73/site/m/octave-forge/fixed/PKG_ADD
/usr/share/octave/2.1.73/site/m/octave-forge/miscellaneous/PKG_ADD
/usr/share/octave/2.1.73/site/m/octave-forge/testfun/PKG_ADD
/usr/share/octave/2.1.73/site/m/octave-forge/sparse/PKG_ADD
/usr/share/octave/2.1.73/site/octave-forge-alternatives/m/graceplot/PKG_ADD

then reemerge octave and octave-forge. After this all must be good.

Hi MaratIK,

   Thanks for your hint! Using your recent patch and ebuild works perfectly. The source compiled smoothly.

Cheers,
Paul-Philippe

Excellent! I'll see that I test and merge the patch into portage cvs sometime 
today.

Best,
Markus

Hi all,

I've committed octave-forge-2006.03.17-r1 to portage cvs which includes 
the patch for configure as well as the fixes to the ebuild.

Many thanks to MaratIK  for tracking down the problem and the patches
and to all of you for testing.

Have a nice weekend,
Markus

I also encountered this bug.
Can 2006.03.17-r1 please be marked as stable?
2006.03.17 simply does not compile (and is marked as stable), where 2006.03.17-r1 does compile, and is still marked ~x86 for half a year already.
I fear that it may be filed again if it is not _really_ resolved.
