Bug 22613 – failed to build openmosixview, because QT does not want to compile

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Mikhail 2003-06-11 06:47:06 UTC]

I'm running openmosix cluster in our LAN. I have tried to compile openmosixview on one of 
the nodes, however it failed in process of building qt. I'm running all latest software, 
ports/system updated every 2 hours from local mirror. 
 
Here is output when qt ebuild fails:

It seems like this stops compile: "QSettings: error creating /root/.qt" 
I have looked into /root, and there is nothing appears to be ".qt" 
Tried 3 times, everytime I get the same error. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge openmosixview 
2. 
3. 
Actual Results:  
qt failed to build 

Expected Results:  
openmosixview

There may be some different solutions:

- Check wether you can created .qt by typting "mkdir /root/.qt" or
- disable openmosix by "/etc/init.d/openmosix stop" and try to emerge openmosixview then.


Please test those two things and report back.

1) created dir /root/.qt 
2) stoped openmosix 
3) emerged openmosixvew (qt, then openmosixview) - worked that way. 
 
Mikhail.

Okies, so I'll close this bug now.
I you are having such problems in the future, then try to stop openmosix, then emerge and then start openmosix again.
