Bug 110585 – Nestra 0.66-7 fails to build due to broken/missing include path in makefile

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED INVALID

[Description Kyle Hokanson 2005-10-26 17:16:23 UTC]

when compiling x11.c, gcc fails with the a bunch of errors, for example:
"x11.c:4:22: X11/Xlib.h: No such file or directory"
and 
"x11.c:631: error: `plane2' undeclared (first use in this function)"


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~amd64" emerge nestra


Actual Results:  
emerge failed due to GCC errors from not being able to find the header files for X11

Expected Results:  
build correctly

No idea what "Nestra 0.66-7" means.

nestra-0.66-r1 builds fine for me.

Please attach the full output from the attempted merge.

Also, please attach the output from "emerge -evp nestra" 

[Comment 2 Kyle Hokanson 2005-10-26 20:13:51 UTC]

Created attachment 71541 [details]
stderr output of emerge when attempting 'emerge nestra'

sorry about the previous version confusion.
this is the output i get when attempting to merge nestra on my box.

[Comment 3 Kyle Hokanson 2005-10-26 20:24:20 UTC]

Created attachment 71542 [details, diff]
diff to 'fix' the makefile

if I change the makefile to have "-I /usr/include" in the target for x11.o it
builds fine.

[Comment 4 Kyle Hokanson 2005-10-26 20:44:45 UTC]

Created attachment 71543 [details]
output of 'emerge -evp nestra

[Comment 5 Kyle Hokanson 2005-10-26 20:46:48 UTC]

Created attachment 71544 [details]
output of 'emerge -evp nestra'

[Comment 6 Mr. Bones. (RETIRED) 2005-10-26 21:09:13 UTC]

Does "ls -l /usr/include/X11/Xlib.h" list anything?

[Comment 7 Kyle Hokanson 2005-10-27 04:48:10 UTC]

Created attachment 71557 [details]
output of 'ls -l /usr/include/X11'

/usr/include/X11 is present and full of header files

[Comment 8 Kyle Hokanson 2005-10-27 05:06:19 UTC]

the ebuild does a lot of patching to the Makefile by itself to do the
configuration (it doesnt use a configure script). 

perhaps 'sed -i -e 's:x11.c:x11.c -I /usr/include:' need to be in the ebuild too?

if so, why does it build fine elsewhere?

[Comment 9 Kyle Hokanson 2005-10-27 05:12:47 UTC]

Created attachment 71559 [details, diff]
patch to the ebuild script to make it build correctly

[Comment 10 Kyle Hokanson 2005-10-27 05:13:56 UTC]

Comment on attachment 71559 [details, diff]
patch to the ebuild script to make it build correctly

of course, the amd64 should have be ~amd64

[Comment 11 SpanKY 2005-10-27 05:45:11 UTC]

no, forcing '-I /usr/include' doesnt make any sense

[Comment 12 Kyle Hokanson 2005-10-27 08:13:32 UTC]

is this a problem with my environment?

there is no CPATH variable defined anywhere in the files in /etc/. ('grep -iR
^cpath /etc' returns nothing)

but that doesn't explain why all the other files complie normally.

[Comment 13 SpanKY 2005-10-27 08:27:19 UTC]

not sure ... it emerges fine on my amd64 2005.1 :/

try putting '-v' into your CFLAGS and see what the include search paths
gcc uses

[Comment 14 Kyle Hokanson 2005-10-27 15:51:50 UTC]

Ah crap. It was my system after all. there was a broken cross compiler that I
had installed for some experimentation that I forgot about. got rid of that, and
it works fine now. probably also why the cross compiler didnt work either...

Sorry bout that...

[Comment 15 Mr. Bones. (RETIRED) 2005-10-27 16:00:06 UTC]

ok.  glad you got it figured out.
