Bug 43989 – kdebase: missing nsplugins

• Status: RESOLVED INVALID
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Elan Ruusamäe 2004-03-07 16:21:10 UTC]

i'm missing netscape plugins from my kde 3.2.0, on another gentoo with same kde version they're present. looked forum and seems that nsplugin package must be installed prior compiling kdebase, i wish i saw USE flag before i built kdebase

[ebuild   R   ] kde-base/kdebase-3.2.0  +cups +encode -java +ldap -motif +opengl +pam +samba +ssl  16,996 kB

Interesting, because I have Netscape Plugins in my 3.2.0 control center and I don't have any netscape related stuff installed

Control Center -> Internet -> Web Browser -> Plugins?

I'm 99.9% sure this isn't an issue anymore with kde 3.2.

You need the motif useflag for netscape plugins. I know it's lousy, but that's what it is.

thanks, that seems the issue (USE=motif),

but i'm having trouble building kdebase, because it thinks i still have old gcc installed, it's searching for libstcd++.la from gcc 3.2.x dir.. so i'm running currently this commandset to figure out what to recompile


# locate '.la'|grep '\.la$'|xargs grep 'gcc-lib/.*/3.2.3' -l|sort -u|xargs -l1 qpkg -I -nc -f

maybe i can just edit the appropriate .la files? changing 3.2.3 -> 3.3.2

# less /usr/kde/3.1/lib/libartscbackend.la

You can fix that with /sbin/fix_libtool_files.sh

Anyway, closing this bug as the original problem has been identified.
