Description niks1024 2011-07-25 11:23:04 UTC 
I haven't done full testing but it seems that dev-python/wxpython-2.8.12.0 (cairo opengl -doc -examples) requires x11-libs/wxGTK-2.8.12.0 to be built with gstreamer USE flag which at the moment is not required by the former ebuild. This is likely true for all the other versions of the two programs as well.
If possible a way to build wxpython without gstreamer would be good too.

Please attach full build.log

I hope this is the right one.

Compressing a file two times with gzip won't save space, better use bzip2 or xz for compressing text files a lot ;-), anyway, this is small enough to attach here without compression
Comment 4 Patrick Lauer gentoo-dev 2011-07-28 22:04:59 UTC 
I can't reproduce this error, wxpython installs properly with wxGTK USE="-gstreamer". Any hints how to trigger it welcome :)
Comment 5 Ryan Hill (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-07-29 01:29:18 UTC 
I can reproduce it fine.
Comment 6 Ryan Hill (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-07-29 01:39:27 UTC 
I need your emerge --info.  Did you recently change the USE flags on wxGTK?  Is libwx_gtk2u_media-2.8.so.0 a preserved lib (portageq list_preserved_libs /)?
Comment 7 Ryan Hill (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-07-29 03:28:52 UTC 
I see the problem.  findLib in config.py returns true if it finds anything matching "libwx_gtk2u_libname-2.8*".  So even though we've removed the linker name of the library it'll still find the soname/realname and add it to the linker command line.

 622     for d in dirs:
 623         p = os.path.join(d, name)
 624         if glob.glob(p+'*') != []:
 625             return True

You can workaround it for now by just deleting the leftover link and library (after everything else needing it has been rebuilt), but we'll need an actual fix here.
