Size of build log is 1765KB > 1000KB limit, therefore I can't upload it in bugzilla.
I made it available at this url:
http://tot-to.com/files/qutecom-build.log
Comment 3 Rafał Mużyło 2011-03-30 00:43:32 UTC
You could have compressed it.
Anyway, the error is:
/var/tmp/portage/net-im/qutecom-2.2_p20110210/work/qutecom-2.2_p20110210/libs/pixertool/src/v4l/v4l-pixertool.c:24:28: fatal error: linux/videodev.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.

So, the reason is obvious.

Don't qutecom works without webcam? SIP protocol widely used for audio-only comuncations.

Please attach single, compressed files next time.
Comment 6 Chí-Thanh Christopher Nguyễn gentoo-dev 2011-03-31 19:48:16 UTC
Webcam support is unfortunately not optional. I can make qutecom depend on older linux-headers for now, and see if the build system can be modified to not build the v4l1 part.
Comment 7 Jesse Adelman 2011-05-10 16:40:34 UTC
Seems to be tracked upstream here:

Comment 8 Samuli Suominen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-09-30 19:39:29 UTC
qutecom was removed from tree
Comment 9 Chí-Thanh Christopher Nguyễn gentoo-dev 2011-10-01 17:04:47 UTC
Reopening.
Comment 10 Samuli Suominen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-10-01 18:08:37 UTC
And I will be removing it again since I don't see patch to build against newer linux-headers and it's not allowed to force downgrade of linux-headers in the same stabilization level (be it stable or ~arch)
Comment 11 Chí-Thanh Christopher Nguyễn gentoo-dev 2011-10-01 23:40:25 UTC
If you remove it then at least follow proper procedure.

Although I honestly see no reason to remove it as long as <linux-headers-2.6.38 ebuilds exist in tree.

I've done that the first time around, I don't think second round is required:

No package out of toolchain is allowed to downgrade linux-headers.

And closing as WONTFIX again, since the package is no longer in Portage.

Ah sorry, I missed that mail for some reason.

30 days from 13 September 2011 is not 30 September 2011

Please restore the qutecom package.
Comment 14 Diego Elio Pettenò (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-10-02 13:47:08 UTC
Do not restore, and please stop this whole charade.

If the package can get fixed to use non-deprecated V4L1 headers _do so_ then re-add it to portage. But do not even ask to add it if it's still broken.

30 days, 60 days, 14 days... if you wanted to, or knew how, to fix this you would have done so in the six _months_ before it was removed...
Comment 15 Chí-Thanh Christopher Nguyễn gentoo-dev 2011-10-02 14:05:02 UTC
I already said in my mail to -dev that it was on my TODO list, but I considered it a minor problem and there were always higher prioritized items until now.

I accept the mask for removal, and I now only ask that proper procedure be followed as described in http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/devrel/handbook/handbook.xml?part=2&chap=5#doc_chap8
Comment 16 Chí-Thanh Christopher Nguyễn gentoo-dev 2011-10-03 08:11:59 UTC
Keeping bug open until package can be tested properly
Comment 17 Chí-Thanh Christopher Nguyễn gentoo-dev 2011-10-31 20:27:51 UTC
Seems to work, closing.
