Bug 32495 – Portage does not emerge gnome-vfs-1.0.5-r3 before emerging control-center-1.4.0.5-r1

• Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description wolf at ivix dot org 2003-11-01 14:27:17 UTC]

I was trying to emerge dvd::rip, and while it was emerging control-center-1.4.0.5-r1, 
I got the following error during configure: 
 
checking for gnome-vfs library >= 0.9... /usr/bin/gnome-vfs-config: line 7: 
/var/tmp/portage/gnome-vfs-1.0.5-r3/image//usr/lib/vfsConf.sh: No such file or 
directory 
/usr/bin/gnome-vfs-config: line 7: 
/var/tmp/portage/gnome-vfs-1.0.5-r3/image//usr/lib/vfsConf.sh: No such file or 
directory 
configure: error: Did not find gnome-vfs installed 
 
!!! ERROR: gnome-base/control-center-1.4.0.5-r1 failed. 
!!! Function src_compile, Line 40, Exitcode 1 
!!! (no error message) 
 
After I manually emerged gnome-vfs-1.0.5-r3, control-center emerged properly.  I 
looked in control-center-1.4.0.5-r1.ebuild, and saw: 
 
RDEPEND="<gnome-base/gnome-vfs-1.9.0 
        >=media-libs/gdk-pixbuf-0.11.0-r1" 
 
..but it doesn't seem to be picking that up properly when determining dependencies. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Attempt to emerge control-center-1.4.0.5-r1. 
2. Note that it fails during configure with the below error message because it cannot 
find gnome-vfs-1.0.5-r3. 
Actual Results:  
I received the following error message: 
 
configure: error: Did not find gnome-vfs installed 
 
!!! ERROR: gnome-base/control-center-1.4.0.5-r1 failed. 
!!! Function src_compile, Line 40, Exitcode 1 
!!! (no error message) 

Expected Results:  
Successfully emerged control-center.

from your output I see:
> /var/tmp/portage/gnome-vfs-1.0.5-r3/image//usr/lib/vfsConf.sh: No such
file or 
directory .

but control center shouldnt be looking inside the portage image for that,
it should be looking in /usr/lib/. can you verify you do actually have gnome-vfs-1.0.5
installed ? (qpkg -I -v gnome-vfs) and also please the output of 'grep "config_file"
/usr/bin/gnome-vfs-config'. thanks.

I do have gnome-vfs-1.0.5 installed now, as well as control-center.  The point of opening up this bug was to investigate why, when I didn't have gnome-vfs installed on my system and I tried to emerge control-center, that gnome-vfs was picked up as a dependency and emerged first.

try remerging gnome-vfs-1.0* , the path inside its config script is probably b0rked. This sometimes happens, but is often not reproducable.

[Comment 4 foser (RETIRED) 2003-12-30 08:50:19 UTC]

i'm closing this : the deps seem to be ok and the problem seems to be a local path problem and are probably not reproducable. This just shouldn't happen ;)
