Bug 98689 – adonthell-0.3.4a doesnt configure properly with FEATURES=userpriv

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description David 'Bombe' Roden 2005-07-11 10:13:34 UTC]

When emerging adonthell-0.3.4a recently I noticed that the configure script
chose not to install Ogg Vorbis support on my system, contrary to USE flags and
installed libraries. Digging in the config.log file I found that a missing
/usr/games/include directory is the cause. After creating the directory and
chgrp/chmod-ing it to games and 0750 the error remained as emerge runs the
compiling in the sandbox.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge adonthell
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
The configure script chose not to install Ogg Vorbis support, everything else is
working fine.

Expected Results:  
Install adonthell with Ogg Vorbis support.

Somewhen the directory /usr/games/include should be created, or adonthell's
configure script should not use the /usr/games/include directory when checking
for Ogg Vorbis.

Does it work for you with FEATURES="-userpriv" or if you add user portage to
games group?

[Comment 2 David 'Bombe' Roden 2005-07-11 14:32:58 UTC]

With FEATURES="-userpriv":

[...]
checking for freetype-config... /usr/bin/freetype-config
checking for FreeType -- version >= 6.0.0... yes
checking for Vorbis... yes
checking for python... /usr/bin/python
checking for Python header files... found
[...]

So, this works.

After "gpasswd -a portage games":

[...]
checking for FreeType -- version >= 6.0.0... yes
checking for Vorbis... no
*** Could not run Vorbis test program, checking why...
*** The test program failed to compile or link. See the file config.log for the
*** exact error that occured. This usually means Vorbis was incorrectly installed
*** or that you have moved Vorbis since it was installed.
Disabling OggVorbis support
checking for python... /usr/bin/python
[...]

[root@natrium:~] groups portage
games portage

From /var/tmp/portage/adonthell-0.3.4a/work/adonthell-0.3.4/config.log:

configure:21842: i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -o conftest -g -Wall -fno-exceptions
-I/usr/games/include    conftest.c -lz  -L/usr/games/lib -lvorbis -lm
-lvorbisenc  >&5
cc1: /usr/games/include: Permission denied

So, adding user portage to group games does NOT help.

OK, seems like the ebuild needs RESTRICT="nouserpriv"

[Comment 4 SpanKY 2005-07-11 20:46:32 UTC]

more like adonthell shouldnt be adding /usr/games/include to include search path

Right... the culprit seems to be in acinclude.m4, around line 6319, where
$prefix/include is added to the compiler flags for the vorbis test. What about
adding "--with-vorbis=/usr" to src_compile?

[Comment 6 SpanKY 2005-07-13 17:53:08 UTC]

thanks, added --with-vorbis=${T} to work around the issue ... i dont really have
the energy to patch the autotools to remove the ugly code ;)
