Description Neil Katin 2006-11-03 13:39:45 UTC
I was emerging arts on a "clean" system (where clean means
that X11 wasn't previously installed -- all the X components
were brought in via the ebuild dependencies).  Arts wouldn't
emerge because it failed its internal configuration: it
couldn't work through its dependencies.

The first problem was that it couldn't find the X include
directory (it checks for .../X11/Intrinsic.h).  I added
"--x-includes=/usr/include --x-libraries=/usr/lib" to the myconf
variable, this allowed arts to compile even though x11-libs/libXt
wasn't present on the system (that is the package that provides
/usr/include/X11/Intrinsic.h, which is what configure was dying
on).

I added x11-libs/libXt to the DEPENDS variable and it also successfully
merged.  But it appears that libXt isn't actually used by arts; it
just uses it to check to see that it can detect the X include directory.

The version I was merging was kde-base/arts-3.5.2-r1.
