Bug 24007 – Trying to emerge gnome, and some other packages and I always get the same kind of compiling error.

• Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Eric Rousse 2003-07-06 14:06:12 UTC]

CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" 
CFLAGS="-O3 -march=athlon-tbird -pipe" 
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" 
 
Of course I can't find the library that is missing, and don't know how it could be installed. 
And I was unable to find anyone else that got the same error or that could provide me with 
some help. 
 
Got the same error with some other ebuilds that I don't remember, got the same error with a 
kde theme(dotNet) that I tried to installed. 
 
I also tried to do a emerge -e gcc --deep, it didn't help. 
 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge gnome 
2. 
3. 
Actual Results:  
during compiling the gst-plugins in gnome.

[Comment 1 Alastair Tse (RETIRED) 2003-07-07 18:27:24 UTC]

one (or more) of your libraries has hard coded the i586-pc-linux-gnu path in its .la file. i bet it is avifile.

try searching for which ones these are by doing:

fgrep i586-pc-linux-gnu /usr/lib/*.la

and find out which package they belong to (using qpkg or etcat) and emerge them again.

[Comment 2 Eric Rousse 2003-07-08 17:14:50 UTC]

I don't have avifile installed right now. 
 
From your instructions, i've been able to find out that gtkspell and aspell was maybe 
hardcoded with i586. I unmerged them and then did restarted my "emerge gnome" and 
I got the same error with gst-plugins. 
 
After I just checked to make sure that nothing was hardcoded... with the same fgrep. 
And nothing now. 
 
So any other suggestion ?

try building without arts support (USE=-arts)

try searching bugzilla, there are other bugs with arts & gst-plugins around. See if they are of any help.

can't reproduce, reopen if suggestions didn't help.
