Bug 64775 – media-tv/linuxtv-dvb-1.1.1 does not build kernel modules for gentoo-dev-sources-2.6.8-r4

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description John Ross Hunt 2004-09-20 10:32:05 UTC]

media-tv/linuxtv-dvb-1.1.1 emerges and installs itself, but the kernel module does not get built due to an error -- which the ebuild fails to catch.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge =media-tv/linuxtv-dvb-1.1.1
2. package install without kernel module
3. scratch head in frustration

Actual Results:  
The package installed itself with the kernel module missing.

Expected Results:  
It should have installed the kernel module.  Or, since the kernel module is
apparently part of the 2.6 series, the ebuild should have refused to build at
all.  I'm not sure which is the proper behavior.

Here's the build log

[Comment 2 Doug Goldstein (RETIRED) 2004-09-20 22:09:07 UTC]

I don't have any hardware to test on.. I'll make some tweaks and package.mask it if you're willing to be my tester John.

[Comment 4 Antonio 2004-09-21 03:39:28 UTC]

If i compile this ebuild on my kernel that is enable dvb driver is a problem ?

[Comment 5 Antonio 2004-09-21 03:42:00 UTC]

libdvb depend on linuxtv-dvb-1.0.1, is possible to compile with linuxtv-dvb-1.1.1 ?

[Comment 6 Christoph Brill (egore) (RESIGNED) 2004-09-27 11:12:13 UTC]

linuxtv-dvb is already in 2.6.x kernels (read http://www.linuxtv.org:81/download/dvb/ ). So there is no need to install media-tv/linuxtv-dvb.

[Comment 7 Christoph Brill (egore) (RESIGNED) 2004-09-27 23:11:48 UTC]

Can one of you tell me why you are trying to emerge linuxtv-dvb on a 2.6 kernel?

[Comment 8 John Ross Hunt 2004-10-04 17:03:58 UTC]

Sure, 'emerge -Dupv world' tries to build it every time -- even though I have linux26-headers-2.6.8.1 and gentoo-dev-sources-2.6.8-r4 installed.  Perhaps, the check in the ebuild source is working properly?

[Comment 9 John Ross Hunt 2004-10-04 17:05:53 UTC]

Pardon me, "is not working properly" is what I meant to say.

[Comment 10 Christoph Brill (egore) (RESIGNED) 2004-10-04 21:55:35 UTC]

On my system having a 2.6 kernel and having 2.6 or 2.4 headers installed linuxtv-dvb never was installed.

What does 'emerge -pC linuxtv-dvb' give you?

[Comment 11 John Ross Hunt 2004-10-04 22:07:57 UTC]

# emerge -pC linuxtv-dvb

>>> These are the packages that I would unmerge:

--- Couldn't find linuxtv-dvb to unmerge.

>>> unmerge: No packages selected for removal.

[Comment 12 Christoph Brill (egore) (RESIGNED) 2004-10-05 09:12:23 UTC]

Ok, I guess I found your problem. Are you using vdr 1.2.6, right? This ebuild depends on linuxtv-dvb. Now you got 3 options:

1.)Try using the gentoo-de overlay (I know, they are german but you can take instrucions from http://www.gentoo.de/main/de/downloads.xml and if you are in doubt: ask here) and emerge vdr 1.3.* (since their ebuilds detects if you are using a 2.6 or 2.4+linuxtv-dvb).

2.)Try the fixed ebuild I'll attach in a few seconds. (Note: Someone please add it to portage, should help many frustrated vdr users)

3.)If you are not using vdr, I guess you have to do a 

find . -type f -exec grep -il "linuxtv" {} \;

and see if it prints out any program you are using and remove the dependecy to media-video/linuxtv-dvb

Hope that helps

media-video/vdr-1.2.6-r1.ebuild

Enhanced existing ebuild for kernel detection, please add to portage!

[Comment 14 John Ross Hunt 2005-04-26 17:02:50 UTC]

Please take my name off this bug.  I'm retired.

[Comment 15 Matthias Schwarzott 2005-12-09 14:07:56 UTC]

Included versions of linuxtv-dvb should not build any modules for Kernel 2.6.  
 
Next revision will die when trying to compile against kernel 2.6.
