Bug 37994 – emerge eric and sip problems

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Cletus Lichte 2004-01-12 11:54:23 UTC]

When I type emerge eric, it first installs sip-4.0_rc1 and then installs sip-3.8 and unmerges sip-4.0_rc1.  If I type emerge pykde, it installs sip-3.8 and then wants to install sip-4.0_rc1.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge eric
2.
3.


Expected Results:  
Install the correct version of sip for both PyQt and pykde and eric.

There is no pykde version out yet for sip >=3.9. Please stay with 3.8. 

> ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86 ~x86"

Either ~x86 or x86 should be sufficient.

[Comment 2 Cletus Lichte 2004-01-12 14:12:23 UTC]

So just let portage merge and then unmerge sip-4.0_rc1 ?  Is there no way to get it to *not* merge this first if it's just going to remove it later?

Also, I have only ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" in my /etc/make.conf file, emerge info must put the other in there.

[Comment 3 Cletus Lichte 2004-01-12 14:15:44 UTC]

BTW, what is it that is trying to emerge sip-4.0_rc1 ?? When I type emerge eric -vp I get this:


Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild  N    ] dev-python/sip-4.0_rc1
[ebuild  N    ] dev-python/sip-3.8
[ebuild  N    ] dev-python/PyQt-3.8.1
[ebuild  N    ] dev-util/eric-3.2

and when I type emerge pykde -vp I get this:

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild  N    ] dev-python/sip-3.8
[ebuild  N    ] dev-python/PyQt-3.8.1
[ebuild  N    ] dev-python/sip-4.0_rc1
[ebuild  N    ] dev-python/pykde-3.7.4-r

So if I emerge eric first and get sip-3.8 and then emerge pykde and get sip-4.0_rc1, will anything be broken?

[Comment 4 Carsten Lohrke (RETIRED) 2004-01-12 15:53:27 UTC]

Oh sorry, never noticed, that 'emerge info' creates the output with both arch and ~arch.

This could in fact be a portage bug. eric 3.2 has a <=dev-python/PyQt-3.8.1 dependency, but ~arch wants to tryout the newest available PyQt version.

But may I point you to Bug 35199!? eric 3.2 is a bit out of date and the newer version should work with PyQt/sip 3.9. If you want to use pykde, please go back to arch and merge PyQt/sip 3.8.x and stay with it for now.

[Comment 5 Cletus Lichte 2004-01-12 17:08:19 UTC]

Actually I'd like to get eric 3 working for now.  Thanks for the tip, but what's the problem with getting this new eric ebuild into the portage tree?  I'll just dl it for now and see if I can get it to work.

Also, ( just wondering ) why is sip-4.0_rc1 even in the portage tree if there are  no packages that will work with it?  Thanks for you help!

[Comment 6 Carsten Lohrke (RETIRED) 2004-01-12 17:24:51 UTC]

Clestus, I'm not a gentoo developer, don't ask me. :)

There's also an ebuild of PyQt 3.9 in bugzilla, only a newer pykde version is missing.

[Comment 7 Cletus Lichte 2004-01-12 17:30:33 UTC]

What about sip-3.9?  Portage is trying every mirror on the planet and none of them have it.  Any ideas?  Thanks!

[Comment 8 Cletus Lichte 2004-01-12 17:48:49 UTC]

Ok, nevermind, PyQt-3.9 seems to be compiling with sip-4.0_rc1. I'll report more if this doesn't work.  Thanks!

[Comment 9 Cletus Lichte 2004-01-12 19:59:15 UTC]

Well, I've dl'd and emerged the "unofficial" PyQt and eric ebuilds and it all seems to be working well.  Lots of kewl new things in eric I see, like this api stuff.  Thanks for providing the ebuilds!

[Comment 10 Carsten Lohrke (RETIRED) 2004-01-13 03:36:20 UTC]

sip 3.x is not python 2.3 compatible, that's why you got 4.x (you could test Bug 38018 then, if you like)

if a sip/pyqt/pykde tarball is not mirrored, you are free to submit a bug report.

[Comment 11 Rob Cakebread (RETIRED) 2004-01-14 10:34:13 UTC]

I'm tyrying to get this worked out today and fix the mirror problems with the packages that need it. The current maintainer ([e-mail]) is having hardware problems so I told him I'd try to add eric.

[Comment 12 Rob Cakebread (RETIRED) 2004-01-17 17:48:22 UTC]

I've committed new versions of sip, PyQt and eric (Thanks Carlo!). They should clear up the problems in this bug. Thanks guys.
