Bug 246940 – dev-python/wxpython-2.8.9.1-r1 - contrib/glcanvas/gtk/glcanvas_wrap.cpp:2740: error: 'wxGLCanvas' was not declared in this scope

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Sascha Wuestemann 2008-11-15 16:40:33 UTC]

I run a vserver at my gentoo box with no X but uses tightvnc to serve a desktop to be seen on another computer. I used package.use to add the X USE flag where nescessary. One application compiled by hand which is not at the gentoo portage tree needs wxpython.

I encountered a problem I cannot solve when updating the vservers system, lately - dev-python/wxpython-2.8.9.1-r1 breaks on compiling contrib/glcanvas/gtk/glcanvas_wrap.cpp.
I tried to solve it with the "-opengl" USE flag and recompiled GTK with X with no changes, so I am out of options, a copy of the relevant compiling messages follow:

Last 3 lines of package.use are new for compiling x11-libs/gtk+ for X with minimal xorg-server I don't use on the machine running the vserver which where dependencies which came with compiling x11-libs/gtk+ with X. Unfortunately it didn't change the error above a bit.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Compiling dev-python/wxpython-2.8.9.1-r1
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
setup.py build failed, compiling fails

Expected Results:  
I expected a fine compile without errors or at least when using "-opengl" the correscponding gtk section is not being compiled but it is.

Currently I am unable to update my system properly.

[Comment 1 Ryan Hill (RETIRED) 2008-11-26 00:19:10 UTC]

what was the last wxpython version that worked?  is wxGTK built w/ or w/o the opengl USE flag?

[Comment 2 Sascha Wuestemann 2008-11-26 01:35:42 UTC]

The version to be replaced is v2.8.8.1 as you can see here:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild     U ] dev-python/wxpython-2.8.9.1-r1 [2.8.8.1] USE="-cairo%"

I tried compiling from commandline without addiditional USE flags and with -opengl which exactly produced the same error.

BTW: I noticed that the USE content of my /etc/make.conf and the output of the emerge --info USE content don't cope. Here is the content of my /etc/make.conf:

USE="alsa -ipv6 java jpeg mbox png truetype" 

-ipv6 and png are not at the emerge --info USE content, I assume the additions are predefined standards, right? I repeat, this is a long running vserver, not a normal host.

[Comment 3 Ryan Hill (RETIRED) 2008-11-26 02:21:02 UTC]

fixed in wxpython-2.8.9.1-r2.  thanks for the report.

[Comment 4 Sascha Wuestemann 2008-11-26 02:24:38 UTC]

Thanks for the effort.
