pinentry will only fail with the above error when USE="-qt" is set. The configure script initializes am__fastdepCXX only within the qt-specific part: # Check whether --enable-pinentry-qt or --disable-pinentry-qt was given. if test "${enable_pinentry_qt+set}" = set; then enableval="$enable_pinentry_qt" pinentry_qt=$enableval else pinentry_qt=maybe fi; if test "$pinentry_qt" != "no"; then // start of qt-specific checks ...... if test "x$enable_dependency_tracking" != xno \ && test "$am_cv_CXX_dependencies_compiler_type" = gcc3; then am__fastdepCXX_TRUE= am__fastdepCXX_FALSE='#' else am__fastdepCXX_TRUE='#' am__fastdepCXX_FALSE= fi ..... fi // end of qt-specific checks And then the configure script checks that it has been initialized: if test -z "${am__fastdepCXX_TRUE}" && test -z "${am__fastdepCXX_FALSE}"; then { { echo "$as_me:$LINENO: error: conditional \"am__fastdepCXX\" was never defined. Usually this means the macro was only invoked conditionally." >&5 Changing the configure script to initialize am__fastdepCXX when USE="-qt" : if test "$pinentry_qt" = "yes"; then BUILD_PINENTRY_QT_TRUE= BUILD_PINENTRY_QT_FALSE='#' else BUILD_PINENTRY_QT_TRUE='#' BUILD_PINENTRY_QT_FALSE= am__fastdepCXX_TRUE='#' <-- extra line am__fastdepCXX_FALSE= <-- extra line fi With this change, pinentry configures and compiles wonderfully with or without qt set in USE. :)
Created attachment 16533 [details, diff] proposed pinetry configure patch
is this still an issue since 0.6.9 is in cvs and 0.6.8 no more ?
The upstream developers have sensibly moved the dependency-tracking checks outside the qt-environment checks with pinentry-0.6.9; it now configures lovely.
so we can close this :D
