Bug 367997 – media-gfx/blender-2.57-r1: fails to build, missing libavutil/parseutils.h

• Status: RESOLVED OBSOLETE
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Stefan Huber 2011-05-19 08:06:47 UTC]

blender-2.57-r1 fails to build on my system due to a wrong #include directive in VideoFFmpeg.cpp which includes "libavutil/parseutils.h" instead of "libavcore/parseutils.h", see below:


Compiling ==> 'VideoFFmpeg.cpp'
In file included from source/gameengine/VideoTexture/VideoFFmpeg.cpp:41:
source/gameengine/VideoTexture/VideoFFmpeg.h:37:34: error: libavutil/parseutils.h: No such file or directory
Compiling ==> 'ImageRender.cpp'

scons: *** [/var/tmp/portage/media-gfx/blender-2.57-r1/work/build/linux2/source/gameengine/VideoTexture/VideoFFmpeg.o] Error 1
scons: building terminated because of errors.


After casting a fix into the patch attached (blender-2.57-libavinclude.patch.1), blender builds for me. (This is the file I put into my /etc/packages.patches dir). The affected include file is part of ffmpeg. I use the latest stable ffmpeg version with the use-flags below:

Created attachment 273921 [details, diff]
fixes the wrong #include directive

<libavutil/parseutils.h> is correct for newer versions of media-video/ffmpeg. Dependencies of media-gfx/blender might need to be updated.

I'd like to confirm that this bug exists when ffmpeg-0.6_p25767 is installed, but with ffmpeg-0.7_rc1 installed libavcore/parseutils.h is in the expected location and thus Blender compiles fine.

Since ffmpeg-0.7_rc1 is stable, this bug report became obsolete.
