Bug 175415 – setools-3.1 configure fails with BWidget 1.7

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Steve Arnold 2007-04-21 06:09:39 UTC]

setools-3.1 fails on both x86 and amd64 with BWidget 1.7.  In spite of the configure message, it requires BWidget 1.8.0 for the apol GUI to run correctly.  Also, the configure still fails, so it requires --disable-bwidget-check option.  The log doesn't show anymore than this:

Updated setools 3.1 ebuild

I've already updated the bwidget package to 1.8.0 (all ~arch for now).

[Comment 2 Steve Arnold 2007-04-21 20:18:06 UTC]

It's actually configure.ac that's somewhat brain-dead here; I played with modifying the auto_path thing as described in the docs, and although it made it past the Tk load error, it never did properly detect BWidget (and I tried several different install locations).  I made a patched version of the setools ebuild that used and installed the internal 1.8.0 bwidget, but that was just more trouble than it was worth.  This one works fine so far on x86 and amd64, and I should be able to try it on ppc later on today.

[Comment 3 Chris PeBenito (RETIRED) 2007-04-22 16:14:33 UTC]

I haven't been able to reproduce this on any of my 3 amd64 machines :\

[Comment 4 Steve Arnold 2007-04-24 07:20:43 UTC]

Weird...   I assume you're doing:

app-admin/setools-3.1  USE="X" ?

[Comment 5 Chris PeBenito (RETIRED) 2007-04-25 21:42:24 UTC]

Yes.  I was able to finally reproduce the problem with configure, but once I added --disable-bwidget-check it still worked fine with bwidget 1.7.  Are there any specific errors or misbehaving widgets in the apol gui that I can look for (I didn't see any)?

[Comment 6 Steve Arnold 2007-04-27 06:56:00 UTC]

I got a Tcl/Tk error box when I tried to run apol.  It only worked with 1.8 for me (at least on amd64).

[Comment 7 Chris PeBenito (RETIRED) 2007-08-20 04:24:56 UTC]

set dep to 1.8 in 3.1 and 3.2.
