Hi, the ebuild for xmms-1.2.7-r11 and r12 generate an xmms executable which is coredumping when you are trying to run it. Using the sources downloaded from xmms.org (1.2.7) everything is running fine. Best regards, Guillaume
what do you have in your USE stuff?
Something is wrong with the entire build by the looks of it, I am unable to even get a complete build of it, even with USE="-*" Making all in po make[2]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/xmms-1.2.7-r11/work/xmms-1.2.7/po' make[2]: *** No rule to make target `all'. Stop. make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/xmms-1.2.7-r11/work/xmms-1.2.7/po' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/xmms-1.2.7-r11/work/xmms-1.2.7' make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2 !!! ERROR: The ebuild did not complete successfully. !!! Function src_compile, Line 85, Exitcode 2 !!! (no error message) !!! emerge aborting on /usr/portage/media-sound/xmms/xmms-1.2.7-r11.ebuild . Will investigate further.
Also now running ./configure in the gentoo patched work dir for xmms errors for me as well sed: Couldn't re-allocate memory config.status: executing default commands configure: configuring in libxmms configure: running /bin/sh './configure' --prefix=. --cache-file=/dev/null --srcdir=. configure: error: expected an absolute directory name for --prefix: . configure: error: /bin/sh './configure' failed for libxmms
Ok, my errors were unrelated to this (supersed gave me problems), back to plan A ;) What do you have in your USE? I just built both versions and both versioons work ok on 2 x ppc boxes
here is my use variable in make.conf: USE="-kde -gnome -berkdb ncurses png avi mpeg quicktime oss -esd ggi dvd xmms ldap truetype xml pdflib java afs samba" Guillaume
Aha... the problem is likely do to avi in your use setting . avi is used to install the Win32 (read x86 binary) avi libraries. Can you try without avi and let me know if it works?
Ok, that was it avi in the USE variabl + xmms is not correct for the ppc plateform. Thanx, Guillaume
