Bug 130441 – mplayer-1.0.20060415 fails to compile

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[Description Jakob Schiotz 2006-04-19 02:09:46 UTC]

I cannot compile the latest stable mplayer (mplayer-1.0.20060415).  It does not seem to be the same problem as bug 130225.

Here is the last part of the emerge output:

'config.h' and 'config.mak' contain your configuration options.
Note: If you alter theses files (for instance CFLAGS) MPlayer may no longer
      compile *** DO NOT REPORT BUGS if you tweak these files ***

'make' will now compile MPlayer and 'make install' will install it.
Note: On non-Linux systems you might need to use 'gmake' instead of 'make'.

Please check mtrr settings at /proc/mtrr (see DOCS/HTML/en/video.html#mtrr)


Check configure.log if you wonder why an autodetection failed (check whether
the development headers/packages are installed).
Do not report compilation errors if you used any of the --enable-* options
(except --enable-gui and maybe --enable-debug).

If you suspect a bug, please read DOCS/HTML/en/bugreports.html.

You've disabled VIDIX. Although it would be better to PORT it instead.
Have a look at the documentation for supported cards!

The source flags I have enabled for this:

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

looks like that the locale transition isn't complete yet, hopefully later I'll update the snapshot with improved (and working) support, for now please unset your language specific options.

[Comment 3 Jakob Schiotz 2006-04-19 07:24:23 UTC]

Thanks!

Removing the LINGUAS variable from make.conf solved the problem.  I only intended that variable to affect KDE builds anyway...

Which I did not find because I did not realise that the problem was with character set files (after all, there are 101 open bugs on mplayer, so since the bug only appeared with this version number, I seached on mplayer and 20060415).

I realise that duplicate bugs are annoying, but the search system is not impressive either.  It is difficult to narrow a search, but more often it misses bugs even if you only search on the package name.  If you search on the bug submission page (as recommended) you find a different set of bugs than if you search on the search page.

Anyway, thanks to all of you maintainers for keeping up the good work on Gentoo!
