I saw something in the topic on #gentoo about an sgml fix and as I was experiencing some probs with errors and warnings with docs while compiling gnome, I decided to try the fix to see if it would clear up some issues. I wish I had never done it because now nothing will compile on my system. When following the instructions, I found and removed the cruft that the sgml fix talks about and now none of it will compile. I get the following errors: echo '-- Installing ./html/index.sgml' ; \ /bin/install -c -m 644 ./html/index.sgml /tmp/portage/gconf-2.2.0/image//usr /share/gtk-doc/html/gconf; \ fi) -- Installing ./html/home.png -- Installing ./html/left.png -- Installing ./html/right.png -- Installing ./html/up.png -- Installing ./html/index.sgml /bin/install: cannot stat `./html/index.sgml': No such file or directory make[3]: *** [install-data-local] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/tmp/portage/gconf-2.2.0/work/GConf-2.2.0/doc/gcon f' make[2]: *** [install-am] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/tmp/portage/gconf-2.2.0/work/GConf-2.2.0/doc/gcon f' make[1]: *** [install-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/portage/gconf-2.2.0/work/GConf-2.2.0/doc' make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1 !!!

Could you tell me what the output of ls -l /var/db/pkg/app-text is?
Yes, here is the output of ls -l /var/db/pkg/app-text/ : total 19 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 496 Feb 17 15:59 a2ps-4.13b-r4/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 376 Jan 8 01:18 aiksaurus-0.15-r1/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 376 Jan 8 00:33 aspell-0.50.3/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 376 Jan 7 23:32 chktex-1.5-r2/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 376 Jan 7 23:45 dgs-0.5.10-r1/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 512 Mar 16 05:40 docbook-dsssl-stylesheet s-1.77-r2/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 496 Mar 16 06:27 docbook-sgml-1.0/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 504 Mar 16 06:15 docbook-sgml-dtd-3.0-r1/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 504 Mar 16 06:16 docbook-sgml-dtd-3.1-r1/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 504 Mar 16 06:27 docbook-sgml-dtd-4.0-r1/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 504 Mar 16 06:16 docbook-sgml-dtd-4.1-r1/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 504 Mar 16 06:28 docbook-sgml-dtd-4.2/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 504 Mar 16 08:03 docbook-sgml-utils-0.6.1 2/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 504 Mar 16 08:03 docbook-xml-dtd-4.1.2-r3 / drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 504 Mar 16 08:02 docbook-xml-dtd-4.2/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 512 Mar 16 06:16 docbook-xml-simple-dtd-4 .1.2.4/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 512 Mar 16 06:26 docbook-xsl-stylesheets- 1.60.1/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 496 Mar 14 19:09 ggv-1.99.98/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 504 Mar 6 23:36 ghostscript-7.05.6/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 496 Mar 15 02:57 gtkspell-2.0.4/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 376 Jan 8 01:05 gv-3.5.8-r2/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 424 Feb 5 03:45 htag-0.0.22/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 504 Mar 16 06:33 html401-19991224-r1/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 376 Jan 4 22:41 ispell-3.2.06-r5/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 496 Mar 16 06:16 jadetex-3.12/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 376 Jan 7 23:31 latex2html-2002.2/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 376 Jan 8 01:18 noweb-2.9-r2/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 496 Mar 16 06:15 openjade-1.3.1-r6/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 496 Feb 17 15:49 psutils-1.17/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 376 Jan 7 23:34 rcs-5.7-r2/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 496 Feb 25 15:38 sablotron-0.96/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 504 Mar 16 08:08 scrollkeeper-0.3.12/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 504 Mar 16 05:40 sgml-common-0.6.3-r3/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 504 Mar 16 06:28 sgmltools-lite-3.0.3-r6/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 496 Feb 16 03:59 tetex-2.0-r1/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 496 Mar 14 20:41 texi2html-1.64/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 504 Mar 16 06:33 xhtml1-20020801-r1/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 376 Jan 8 01:04 xpdf-2.01-r1/
Is there something that I need to try to get this working? I *really* need to install some software and don't want to set -doc as I need the docs for the libs. Should I try the fix again to see if it works this time? Should I re-emerge everything in app-text/ ? Thanks for any info.
Ok. Here's the way I see it -- index.html was not generated. Could you send me a private e-mail (satai@gentoo.org) containing the *entire* log of the build that fails? In addition, could you send me a .tar.gz of the /usr/tmp/portage/PACKAGE directory, after it fails? I will get back to you ASAP on this issue. If you would like, try the SGML fix again; but I think if I see the tarballs that would be more productive.
I still have no functioning system. What else can I provide to help with this problem? Whatever I need to send please let me know. Thanks!
After a few emails and a meeting with satai on irc we decided that I needed to run the fix again and verify that *everything* had been unmerged. After unmerging everything in package.txt I noticed that there were still catalog files in /etc/sgml even though it had all been unmerged. I verified that everything had indeed been removed from my system and instead of continuing with the fix I decided to just emerge the program that was giving me problems and let it decide what sgml stuff to emerge. It seems to have worked and I can now compile progs with the doc USE variable set. Thanks satai!
One thing I didn't mention in my last post was that after I noticed that there were still catalog files left after unmerging everything in package.txt, I continued with the fix up to re-emerging everything in package.txt. I did rm all the things that were mentioned in the fix.
No prob. I've looked even further, and someone has reported that xhtml1 breaks things. So it's now a blocked package by gtk-doc, which has all the problems.
Hi! I was curious about the xhtml1 block in gtk-doc ( Bug 33843 ) and don't think it solves this problem. The latest ebuilds I faced this problem are gimp-1.3.22 and libmrproject-0.10 ( Bug 33811 ). I remerged gtk-doc to be sure.
