Bug 58338 – gphoto2 won't compile, linking (with a certain '/usr/lib/libcdk.a(cdk.o)') issue

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Helio Perroni Filho 2004-07-25 16:16:34 UTC]

I have tried to emerge the last three gphoto2 (2.1.4, 2.1.3, 2.1.2) releases, and in all cases I got the same problem: during compilation phase, the following error message is displayed:

/usr/lib/libcdk.a(cdk.o)(.text+0x14a7): In function `moveCursesWindow':
: undefined reference to `setbegyx'

and the emerge halts.

This could not be a problem with gphoto2, but with whatever of it's dependencies that owns that "libcdk" file.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge gphoto2

Actual Results:  
The dependences were all fetched and built correctly, but the package itself
won't compile.

Expected Results:  
Compile and install gphoto2.

I am using Gentoo Linux 2004.1, installed during the week of 07/11-16.

Created attachment 36151 [details]
The full output from the "emerge gphoto2" command.

This is the full output from trying to emerge gphoto2's latest (2.1.4) release.

Did you try to re-emerge cdk and then emerge gphoto2?

re-emerging cdk solved the problem, thank you.
