Bug 222043 – app-text/kchmviewer-3.1_p2 - pkg_setup fails when kdebase/kdelibs:kde-4 is installed

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Scott Thomson 2008-05-14 08:41:09 UTC]

When trying to install app-text/kchmviewer-3.1_p2 I get...

!!! ERROR in app-text/kchmviewer-3.1_p2:
!!! In built_with_use at line 876
!!! kde-base/kdelibs-4.0.3-r1 does not actually support the arts USE flag!

It looks like the assertion:

built_with_use kde-base/kdelibs arts

in the ebuild is picking up kdelibs4 when it should be picking up 3


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install kdelibs3 and kdelibs4
2. Try and install 
3. app-text/kchmviewer-3.1_p2

Actual Results:  
!!! ERROR in app-text/kchmviewer-3.1_p2:
!!! In built_with_use at line 876
!!! kde-base/kdelibs-4.0.3-r1 does not actually support the arts USE flag!


Expected Results:  
Package gets installed

Thank you for report. I do not think that this version will work with kde-base/kdelibs-4.0.3-r1... Unmask kchmviewer-4.0_beta2. But I need to update deps in any way.

I have both kdelibs:kde-3 and kde4 installed - I like to log into kde4 now and again to play around but my main environment is kde3.

The attached patch fixes the problem for me but be warned my ebuild-fu is almost non-existant, I'm certainly not sure of the implications in changing the EAPI.

Created attachment 153221 [details, diff]
Ebuild patch to make kchmviewer depend on slotted kdelibs

Thank you for report, Scott. I've updated pkg_setup() section but without EAPI=1 requirement, like it is done in kde.eclass.
