Bug 141876 – Paraview ebuild based on VTK ebuild. I need help...

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[Description Daniel Tourde 2006-07-27 03:52:59 UTC]

Hello,

I have tried to generate an ebuild for Paraview. To do so, I inspired myself rather heavily on the VTK-5.0.1-r1 ebuild. Both use CMake and Paraview contains a copy of VTK. So, I thought that they were major similarities which could justify my "plagiat"....

The ebuild can be found at: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=118130

I have however a problem with it: things compile well but when it generates the image it complains about a set of example tools which are not were they are supposed to be:

Linking CXX executable ../../../../../bin/KWSimpleWindowExample
ACCESS DENIED  unlink:    /var/bin/KWSimpleWindowExample
Generating vtkKWSimpleWindowWithImageWidgetExampleTcl.cxx

etc etc..

Which leads to the following:
.......
-- Installing /usr/bin/pvserver
-- Installing /usr/lib/paraview-2.4/pvserver-real
>>> Completed installing paraview-2.4.4 into /var/tmp/portage/paraview-2.4.4/image/

--------------------------- ACCESS VIOLATION SUMMARY ---------------------------
LOG FILE = "/var/log/sandbox/sandbox-sci-visualization_-_paraview-2.4.4-3256.log"

unlink:    /var/bin/KWSimpleWindowExample
unlink:    /var/bin/libKWSimpleWindowWithImageWidgetExampleLib.a
unlink:    /var/bin/libKWSimpleWindowWithImageWidgetExampleLib.so
unlink:    /var/bin/KWSimpleWindowWithImageWidgetExample
unlink:    /var/bin/KWSimpleWindowWithPanelsExample
unlink:    /var/bin/KWSimpleWindowWithRenderWidgetExample
unlink:    /var/bin/KWWidgetsTourExample
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
!!! This ebuild is from an overlay: '/usr/local/portage'

To be honest I am rather dry there. I am not a specialist in building ebuilds and I have no idea where this problem comes from and how it could be solved.

Could the people who have been creating the VTK ebuild take a look at what I did. I might have done a stupid mistake or misunderstood something.
The paraview ebuild is at a very early stage but I like to believe that it can be used as a basis for a fully working ebuild... :)

Thanks in advance for any help.

Daniel

Please, continue there. No duplicate bugs needed.

The problem vanished by itself.
I had testes cmake 2.2 and cmake 2.4 without success and today with cmake-2.4.3 (Oct 6th 2006) things work perfectly...

Strange
