Description Paul Taylor 2005-02-19 14:50:06 UTC
I'm guessing that linking fails because it does not include "-lexpat"; re-emerging expat-1.95.8 didn't help.

Unfortunately, I can't compare the 3.1.4-r4 ebuild to 3.1.4-r3 (which worked) because the latter has been removed from the portage tree.

Comment 3 Alessandro Ronchi 2005-02-19 16:12:50 UTC
I have the same bug too.
Comment 4 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2005-02-19 16:57:49 UTC
the problem is that autotools gets re-run for some reason in the xmlgawk subdir on your machines and the -lexpat is lost
Comment 5 Don Seiler (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-02-19 18:30:17 UTC
Changing hardware to All since I'm getting this on x86.
Comment 6 Nathan Sullivan 2005-02-19 19:49:14 UTC
Same here, x86 (pentium3) with selinux.

Comment 7 Jory A. Pratt 2005-02-19 19:52:47 UTC
Has anyone had this problem on a ~x86 or an ~arch systems this seems to be more an issue with a dep missing or not being completely fullfilled rather then anything else from what I have seen on the forums and here everyone is using some form of a stable release system no ~arch specific have been reported unless I have missed something.
Comment 8 Jory A. Pratt 2005-02-19 19:55:54 UTC
scratch my last report me is blind as a bat tonight aight I have two simple things everyone that has had a fail report any packages of xml that are installed on your system, I do believe it will come down to XML-Parser being out of date or just out right missing.
Comment 9 Jorge Manuel B. S. Vicetto (RETIRED) Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev 2005-02-19 20:08:30 UTC
I'm using ~x86 and have the same error everyone else is having. I do have XML-Parser 2.34 installed.
From the emerge output, the details in the bug 57857 and the ebuild, I'm convinced that the ebuild is simply not telling the linker to link with expat. If you notice  in the src_compile() the econf line for the first and second compilation are almost the same. From bug 81793 we are told that the first compilation doesn't use XML, whilst the second does. Therefore, either the EPATCH_OPTS in the src_unpack(), the patch itself or the ebuild lines are disabling or simply not enabling the link with expat.
Comment 10 Jory A. Pratt 2005-02-19 20:22:54 UTC
what version of expat you have installed sorry just trying to help narrow this down seeing it installed fine for me no problems what so ever out of it.
Comment 11 Rob Brown 2005-02-19 20:26:57 UTC
I'm using XML-Parser version 2.34, and expat version 1.95.8.

Comment 12 Jorge Manuel B. S. Vicetto (RETIRED) Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev 2005-02-19 20:30:59 UTC
I have expat 1.95.8.
I've just noticed that in my case the XML patch is not being applied to the /var/tmp/portage/gawk-3.1.4-r4/work/xmlgawk dir. Perhaps the origin of the problem is that I simply don't have the patch* file in /usr/portage/sys-apps/gawk/files. I've also confirmed that the patch is available at the SRC_URI and have thus donwloaded and am re-emerging again.
Comment 13 Jorge Manuel B. S. Vicetto (RETIRED) Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev 2005-02-19 20:39:36 UTC
I've just finished re-emerging gawk-3.4.1-r4 after the download of the patch and the problem persists. However, I've manually applied the patch in /var/tmp/portage/gawk-3.1.4-r4/work/xmlgawk/ and have run make. When I applied the patch, I discovered that the Makefile.in and awk.h files had not been patched. This led to make run without producing errors.
Comment 14 Jory A. Pratt 2005-02-19 20:49:14 UTC
Alright I am gonna list some things I have found the culprit threw some forums anyone with gentoolkit installed please run "qpkg -I -nc -v automake" You should get something similar to this: 

sys-devel/automake-1.5
sys-devel/automake-1.6.3
sys-devel/automake-1.7.9-r1
sys-devel/automake-1.4_p6
sys-devel/automake-wrapper-1-r1
sys-devel/automake-1.9.4
sys-devel/automake-1.8.5-r3

If you do have all that installed show autoconf using "qpkg -I -nc -v autoconf"
this will produce a list of:

sys-devel/autoconf-2.13
sys-devel/autoconf-2.59-r6
sys-devel/autoconf-wrapper-2-r1

I have also setup a test enviroment to duplicate this error your getting it has yet to show up.  I will post a log in a min of emerge gawk using version 3.1.4-r4 that you can all use to compare or send to me via email and I will compare.

Sucessful build of gawk 3.1.4-r4

You can compare this to yours if anyone is on an athlon-xp setup please post
CFLAGS. After looking at other log I see alot of use flags that are not need
and actually can break packages.
Comment 17 Jory A. Pratt 2005-02-19 21:02:20 UTC
Alright finally able to duplicate this bug I will be working on this give me 20 mins or so and I will have a patch ready to correct the issue.
Comment 18 Jorge Manuel B. S. Vicetto (RETIRED) Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev 2005-02-19 21:07:36 UTC
You don't have the xml USE flag. That's why the emerge doesn't break!!
Remember that the gawk ebuild will compile gawk twice for those with the xml USE flag: the first one without support for XML, the second one with the support. In my case and I think all others, the first build is successful, it's the second that is broken.
Comment 19 Chris Smith 2005-02-19 21:08:27 UTC

Comment 20 Jorge Manuel B. S. Vicetto (RETIRED) Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev 2005-02-19 21:32:21 UTC
I've just confirmed that as I've stated in the previous post, only those using the xml USE flag will have a broken gawk build. Those not using the xml USE flag will have no problem in emerging gawk.
Comment 21 butters 2005-02-19 21:39:50 UTC
Confirmed, turning off the xml use flag allows it to build.
Comment 22 Paul Taylor 2005-02-19 21:48:39 UTC
The original bug report was that *xmlgawk* failed to build, not the vanilla gawk.
Turning off the "xml" USE flag doesn't fix this - it just hides the problem.
Comment 23 Jorge Manuel B. S. Vicetto (RETIRED) Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev 2005-02-19 21:53:16 UTC
Paul,

your comment is absolutely correct and I completely agree with you. I've just clarified that it only matters when gawk is built using the xml USE flag - xmlgawk. As you can read from the posts on the bug, the discussion was being centred on gawk and not xmlgawk. Furthermore, for all those not interested in having xml support on gawk, disabling the xml USE flag is a quick fix.

Fair enough - I was concerned that people were spending time looking for a (non-existent) bug with gawk itself; I hadn't considered the need for a quick fix.

diff of new -r4 ebuild against working -r3 ebuild

Having the same problem with emerge of xmlawk on athlon-xp ~x86 USE=xml. Here
is the diff of the new -r4 ebuild (1st file) against the working -r3 ebuild if
thats of any help
Comment 26 Jean Bréfort 2005-02-20 00:57:47 UTC
even forcing -lexpat does not solve the problem. There are no XML_Puller* symbols in libexpat.so
Comment 27 Jean Bréfort 2005-02-20 01:20:20 UTC
xml-puller.c is not in base_sources (Makefile.am), so it is not compiled and not there at link time.

a patch against xmlgawk which solved the problem for me

I could succeed after patching xmlgawk/Makefile.am and
xmlgawk/awklib/Makefile.am. In awklib, make removes the eg subdirectory and
then try to use some files from it.
I feel my solution is somewhat weird, but it made things work for me (needs
also some editing in gawk-3.1.4-r4.ebuild). Sorry for the noise if this does
not help.
Comment 29 Jean Bréfort 2005-02-20 05:54:49 UTC
the eg diezctory problem was a make -j2 side effect.
Comment 30 Leo Laursen 2005-02-20 07:11:06 UTC
These changes worked for me: (in src_compile() )
    if use xml ; then
        cd "${SXML}"
        sed -e '/regex.h/a  xml_puller.c \\\
    xml_puller.h \\' -i Makefile.am
        econf LDFLAGS=-lexpat $(use_enable nls) || die
        emake -j 1 || die "xmlgawk make failed"
    fi
They are allmost equivalent to the patch by Jean Br

Has anybody confirmed that the xml patch that is supposed to be applied and says it is, actually doesnt apply and that may be the problem. Can anyone else check the patch contents and what it is supposed to change in some files and see if it did indeed change the files.

Ignore my stupid comment. I was checking wrong dir. duh

someone with this bug please run:
`USE=xml MAKEOPTS=-d emerge gawk >& log`
and then post the log as an attachment

Bzipped log as requested

Same problem for me, log as requested above.
Comment 36 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2005-02-21 01:50:58 UTC
edit the ebuild and change the 'cp -r' in the src_unpack() to 'cp -a' and see if that fixes things
Comment 37 Nathan Sullivan 2005-02-21 02:13:41 UTC
FREEDOM!

sorry, success i meant :) that s/-r/-a replacement worked :)
Comment 38 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2005-02-21 02:15:45 UTC
fixed in cvs then
Comment 39 Gert Thiel 2005-02-21 02:31:39 UTC
#35 solution from SpanKY helped me, too.

SpanKY solution works for me.
