Bug 20423 – gnome-media doesn't emerge; can't find gstreamer

• Status: RESOLVED INVALID
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Andreas Bauer 2003-05-04 10:25:56 UTC]

gstreamer version 0.6.1-r1 is emerged. However the configure script of gnome-media 
can't find it: 
checking for   gstreamer-0.6 >= 0.5.2 gstreamer-libs-0.6 >= 0.5.2                 
libgnomeui-2.0 >= 1.102.0... Package gstreamer-libs-0.6 was not found in the 
pkg-config search path. 
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gstreamer-libs-0.6.pc' 
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable 
No package 'gstreamer-libs-0.6' found 
checking for                gstreamer-0.5 >= 0.5.2 gstreamer-libs-0.5 >= 0.5.2              
libgnomeui-2.0 >= 1.102.0... Package gstreamer-0.5 was not found in the pkg-config 
search path. 
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gstreamer-0.5.pc' 
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable 
No package 'gstreamer-0.5' found 
configure: error: you need GStreamer installed

do you have gst-plugins ?

[Comment 2 Andreas Bauer 2003-05-04 14:15:55 UTC]

gts-plugins is emerged (version 0.6.1). I was trying to emerge the gnome ebuild. 

[Comment 3 foser (RETIRED) 2003-05-04 21:02:56 UTC]

do you have the requested files in /usr/lib/pkgconfig , do me a list of 'ls /usr/lib/pkgconfig/gstreamer-*' . Also attach the config.log of the failing configure .

ls /usr/lib/pkgconfig/gstreamer-* : 
/usr/lib/pkgconfig/gstreamer-0.6.pc  /usr/lib/pkgconfig/gstreamer-control-0.6.pc 
 
Sorry for adding the config.log four times, but I got errors while attaching a file, and 
retried first.

you do have gst-plugins but not the related config files, thats weirds. Can you attach the ouput of 'qpkg -l gst-plugins' ?

[Comment 10 Andreas Bauer 2003-05-05 11:03:55 UTC]

output of qpkg -l gst-plugins

[Comment 11 foser (RETIRED) 2003-05-12 12:01:35 UTC]

could you just re-emerge gst-plugins ? see if the pkgconfig stuff shows up ? Please also log the build for if it goes wrong.

[Comment 12 Andreas Bauer 2003-05-13 14:43:18 UTC]

After reemerging gst-plugins it I emerge gnome-media now. But I don't know why it 
work now. Thank you for your support 

[Comment 13 foser (RETIRED) 2003-05-13 15:02:51 UTC]

well, i know why it didn't work : you missed some files. But i don't know how that happened and since it isn't reproducable and working now i'm closing this bug.
