When I try to emerge kvisualboyadvance, I an error about Qt Designer. Here are the last lines of the output: Making all in src make[2]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/kvisualboyadvance-0.3.1/work/kvisualboyadvance-0.3.1/src' /usr/qt/3/bin/uic -L /usr/kde/3.1/lib/kde3/plugins/designer -nounload -o kvisualboyadvancedlg.h ./kvisualboyadvancedlg.ui /usr/qt/3/bin/moc ./kvisualboyadvance.h -o kvisualboyadvance.moc uic: File generated with too recent version of Qt Designer (3.2 vs. 3.1.2) make[2]: *** [kvisualboyadvancedlg.h] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/kvisualboyadvance-0.3.1/work/kvisualboyadvance-0.3.1/src' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/kvisualboyadvance-0.3.1/work/kvisualboyadvance-0.3.1' make: *** [all] Error 2 !!! ERROR: games-emulation/kvisualboyadvance-0.3.1 failed. !!! Function kde_src_compile, Line 128, Exitcode 2 !!! died running emake, kde_src_compile:make Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Find a Gentoo box with KDE 3.1.2, it should have Qt Designer version 3.1.2 installed. 2. Log in as root 3. type "emerge kvisualboyadvance" Actual Results: kvisualboyadvance didn't build properly. Expected Results: It should have built kvisualboyadvance and installed it. I downloaded the pristine sources and tried to compile them; same error. It seems the original author distributes the sources with a generated file. The should probably change the build procedure to have the file generated during the build, so that you can build this package regardless of which version of KDE (and especially Qt Designer) the user has installed.
actually is qt 3.2 needed, not qtdesigner.
Created attachment 29372 [details] kvisualboyadvance-0.3.1.ebuild
Fixed in CVS. Thanks for the bug report.
It still doesn't build. This is what happened: I did 'emerge sync' a few hours ago, and then did 'emerge kvisualboyadvance'. This time it required Qt 3.3.0-r1, so that was built and installed first. Then portage tried to build kvisualboyadvance, but this time it wont even get through the 'configure' phase. It ends like this: /... lots of 'configure'-output .../ checking for KDE... libraries /usr/kde/3.1/lib, headers /usr/kde/3.1/include checking if UIC has KDE plugins available... no configure: error: you need to install kdelibs first. !!! ERROR: games-emulation/kvisualboyadvance-0.3.1 failed. !!! Function kde_src_compile, Line 117, Exitcode 1 !!! died running ./configure, kde_src_compile:configure So kvisualboyadvance still doesn't build. (But that's not the worst part. The worst part is that this completely changed the way my desktop looks. It switched the style, and the icons doesn't match this so things look really crappy... this problem isn't part of the bug per se, of course.)
your latest problem isn't related to this bug - just re-emerge kdelibs to fix your style issue.
kvisualboyadvance builds correctly now.
