Bug 19858 – libsoup 1.99.17 compile fails with USE="-ssl"

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Aaron Gyes 2003-04-23 18:37:08 UTC]

When I try to emerge libsoup 1.99.17 (needed for the newest evoulution) I get
this at the end of configure:
configure: error: conditional "BUILD_PROXY" was never defined.
Usually this means the macro was only invoked conditionally.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

Is it just me, or is libsoup hard-masked?

Calculating dependencies   
!!! all ebuilds that could satisfy "libsoup" have been masked.

!!! Error calculating dependancies. Please correct.

[Comment 2 Aaron Gyes 2003-04-23 19:31:29 UTC]

it is, you need to edit the mask file for it and newer versions of gal and maybe somthing else if i can remember correctly before you can put on the new evolution

[Comment 3 Alastair Tse (RETIRED) 2003-04-23 19:33:28 UTC]

it is indeed p.masked. only people who enjoy skydiving and base jumping should be merging these things. 

not really critical because we are not ready to support a preview version of evolution and its components.

[Comment 4 Alastair Tse (RETIRED) 2003-04-23 19:43:14 UTC]

can you post the whole emerge log? and also the output of emerge info?

[Comment 5 Aaron Gyes 2003-04-23 19:51:10 UTC]

Heres my emerge info output:

My emerge log in monsterous, but its attatched (yes, i actually do emerge sync that often :-/ i think im addicted :( )

[Comment 6 Aaron Gyes 2003-04-23 19:53:37 UTC]

okay this is weird, i tried to attatch it but somehow it got put on another bug, i think theres somthing wrong.

[Comment 7 Aaron Gyes 2003-04-23 19:55:21 UTC]

here it is though: http://bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=11056&action=view

[Comment 8 Alastair Tse (RETIRED) 2003-04-23 19:59:46 UTC]

ok, try :

USE="ssl" emerge libsoup

for some reason, ssl support isn't really optional? i'll investigate further.

don't know why the attachment got put into a different bug .. weird .. 

[Comment 9 Aaron Gyes 2003-04-23 20:01:39 UTC]

that worked, cool

[Comment 10 Alastair Tse (RETIRED) 2003-04-30 19:37:28 UTC]

removed ssl as an optional dependency.
