Bug 85315 – app-text/xpdf-3.00-r8 could not find X / Motif and its not able to compile xpdf

• Status: VERIFIED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Octavio Ruiz (Ta^3) 2005-03-15 01:16:50 UTC]

configure: WARNING: Couldn't find X / Motif -- you will be able to compile
        pdftops, pdftotext, pdfinfo, pdffonts, pdftoppm, and pdfimages,
        but not xpdf


Since openmottif (>=2.2.3-r5  >=2.1.30-r11) "fix includes" moving everything to 
/usr/include/openmotif-2.2 instead of /usr/include (which is good) xpdf 
configure script can not find Xm headers/libraries... I added this to the
ebuild and then xpdf can be compiled.. 

+               --with-Xm-library=`/usr/bin/motif-config -L` \
+               --with-Xm-includes=`/usr/bin/motif-config -I` \

Also I like that behaviour.. cos in this way bug 83317 can be fixed/closed.

Diff and ebuild will be attached., They should be keyworded ~ because depends on a keyworded ebuild (motif-config and openmotif >=2.2.3-r5  >=2.1.30-r11).

For tracking-bug purposes:

===================
Bug 49026 (Where is /usr/bin/xpdf ?)
Bug 73985 (xpdf needs better warning about missing xpdf program)
Bug 79959 (xpdf uses "nomotif" USE flag instead of checking against "motif" USE flag)
Bug 83317 (xpdf uses "nomotif" use flags although there already is "motif")
Bug 85315 (app-text/xpdf-3.00-r8 could not find X / Motif and its not able to compile xpdf)
===================

This is not related to bug #83317. xpdf should find motif, because motif-config creates the links to /usr/include and /usr/lib. try to remerge motif-config/openmotif and then xpdf.

motif-config creates the links, yea... but xpdf still not working.

 Xm -> /usr/include/openmotif-2.2/Xm
 Mrm -> /usr/include/openmotif-2.2/Mrm
 uil -> /usr/include/openmotif-2.2/uil

[Comment 6 Heinrich Wendel (RETIRED) 2005-03-15 12:25:26 UTC]

`motif-config -l`?

[Comment 7 Octavio Ruiz (Ta^3) 2005-03-15 12:36:47 UTC]

motif-config -l
[1] openmotif-2.2 *

There are just symlinks.. ok.. but I was having this problem

motif-config --install openmotif-2.2
 * /usr/bin/motif-config: Installing Profile: openmotif-2.2
rm: cannot remove `/usr/include/Mrm': Is a directory
rm: cannot remove `/usr/include/Xm': Is a directory
rm: cannot remove `/usr/include/uil': Is a directory
ln: `/usr/include/Mrm/Mrm': File exists
ln: `/usr/include/Xm/Xm': File exists
ln: `/usr/include/uil/uil': File exists
 * /usr/bin/motif-config: New default Profile is: openmotif-2.2

Also the ebuild showed that.

Weird because rm should not (?) output anything with `-f` argument.. so well, I deleted by hand `/usr/include/{Mrm,Xm,uil}' reemerged (motif-config,openmotif,xpdf) and works now.

It Was a `migration` issue?

[Comment 8 Heinrich Wendel (RETIRED) 2005-03-15 12:51:47 UTC]

yes, migration issue. unmerge openmotif-2.2.3-r3 and try again

[Comment 9 Octavio Ruiz (Ta^3) 2005-03-15 13:13:05 UTC]

I have x11-libs/openmotif-2.2.3-r5. I'm on ~arch. It work (xpdf) before deleted symlinks and emerged openmotif again. 

Thanks :-)
