Bug 101329 – Apache-Gallery-0.9.1 depends on wrong libapreq library, missing postinstall-en.txt

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Forza 2005-08-04 07:01:43 UTC]

Apache-Gallery-0.9.1 works with both Apache-1 and Apache-2. The ebuild checks for the 
apache2 USE flag and then sets dependencies on that. The problem is that apache2 
requires libapreq2 is installed, not libapreq. The ebuild should be updated to depend on 
this.

Also a file is missing from the ebuild:

Your overlay, your bug. ;-)

Seriously, don't you think I already tested without the overlay? I used overlay because I 
fixed the dependency problem.

The file Apache-Gallery/files/postinstall.txt is not on the mirror.

Apache-Gallery-0.9.1.ebuild, Line 59:

webapp_postinst_txt en ${FILESDIR}/postinstall-en.txt

Seriously, be so kind and post error messages that you get when installing the
ebuild *from official portage tree* next time. The summary of this bug talks
about wrong dependency and the error shown here shows that postinstall-en.txt'
is missing, so what is this bug actually about?

[Comment 5 Forza 2005-08-04 08:03:51 UTC]

Here is some info about the dependency problem:

# emerge Apache-Gallery -pv

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies |
!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "<www-apache/mod_perl-1.99" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- www-apache/mod_perl-1.29 (masked by: package.mask, ~x86 keyword)
- www-apache/mod_perl-1.27-r4 (masked by: package.mask)
- www-apache/mod_perl-1.27-r1 (masked by: package.mask)
- www-apache/mod_perl-1.27-r2 (masked by: package.mask)

For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or
section 2.2 "Software Availability" in the Gentoo Handbook.
!!!    (dependency required by "www-apache/libapreq-1.2-r1" [ebuild])


The problem is www-apache/libapreq-1.2-r1. When you have Apache2 installed you need 
www-apache/libapreq2.

The problem is the DEPEND= line in the ebuild:

    >=www-apache/libapreq-1.0
    !apache2? ( >=net-www/apache-1.3.26-r2
        =www-apache/mod_perl-1* )
    apache2? ( >=net-www/apache-2.0.43-r1
        >=www-apache/mod_perl-1.99 ) "

It should be rewritten as:

    !apache2? ( >=net-www/apache-1.3.26-r2
        >=www-apache/libapreq-1.0
        =www-apache/mod_perl-1* )
    apache2? ( >=net-www/apache-2.0.43-r1
        >=www-apache/libapreq2-2.0
        >=www-apache/mod_perl-1.99 ) "


Also, The file postinstall-en.txt is still missing.

Sorry for the confusion and harsh tone. My appologies.

[Comment 8 Renat Lumpau (RETIRED) 2005-08-04 10:50:23 UTC]

Thanks for reporting, should get to it very soon. libapreq2 was just unmasked today.

[Comment 9 Renat Lumpau (RETIRED) 2005-08-05 04:20:00 UTC]

Added missing postinstall-en.txt, will look into the libapreq2 issue over the
weekend.

In CVS, thanks.
