Bug 401261 – dev-python/pyatspi-2.2.1 - Requested 'atk >= 2.1.0' but version of Atk is 1.32.0

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Portage Development

[Description Göktürk Yüksek 2012-01-29 07:03:49 UTC]

Failed at src_configure with:
  Requested 'atk >= 2.1.0' but version of Atk is 1.32.0

I don't know if this is a dependency issue or a parallel build issue. The merge order seems correct:

[ebuild     U ~] dev-libs/atk-2.2.0 [1.32.0-r1] USE="introspection nls -doc" 587 kB [0]
[ebuild  N    ~] dev-python/pyatspi-2.2.1  USE="-test" 260 kB [0]

However when actually merging in parallel:

>>> Emerging (23 of 145) dev-libs/atk-2.2.0
>>> Emerging (56 of 145) dev-python/pyatspi-2.2.1
>>> Failed to emerge dev-python/pyatspi-2.2.1
>>> Installing (23 of 145) dev-libs/atk-2.2.0

I was trying to merge gnome-3.2.1 with autounmask enabled. The build log for pyatspi as well as the output of emerge --info is attached.


Reproducible: Always

The dep looks like this:

  DEPEND="test? ( >=dev-libs/atk-2.1.0 )"

Your build log shows this:

  USE:        elibc_glibc kernel_linux userland_GNU x86

Since you don't have USE=test enabled, according to DEPEND, you don't need dev-libs/atk. So, either the dependency is wrong, or src_configure needs to be fixed to handle it correctly.

Looks like tests are always enabled :O

checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes
checking whether tests are enabled... yes

[Comment 5 Göktürk Yüksek 2012-02-05 05:37:12 UTC]

pkg_setup() {
    G2CONF="${G2CONF} $(use_enable test tests)"
    python_pkg_setup
}

Could this be the reason?

what happens with FEATURES=-test or conversely -test listed in FEATURES in /etc/make.conf ?

  configure: error: Package requirements (atk >= 2.1.0) were not met:
  Requested 'atk >= 2.1.0' but version of Atk is 1.32.0

The configure.ac entry for tests is as follows:
AC_ARG_ENABLE(tests,
              [AS_HELP_STRING([--enable-tests], [Build with testing enabled])],
              enable_tests=yes,
              enable_tests=no)
According to [0], "If the user gave configure the option --enable-feature or --disable-feature, run shell commands action-if-given". So, '--disable-tests' triggers action-if-given, which then does 'enable_tests=yes'.

Not specifying '--disable-tests' actually disables tests. I've also attached a patch for configure.ac that seems to fix the problem.
