Bug 188629 – app-text/evince-0.8.3 fails to emerge due to problems with XML-Parser

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[Description José Otávio Rizzatti Ferreira 2007-08-12 19:17:41 UTC]

app-text/evince-0.8.3 merge fails at the configure phase, claiming it needs XML::Parser. But, dev-perl/XML-Parser-2.34 is installed at in the system.

--------------------
Use flags being used for evince:

[ebuild     U ] app-text/evince-0.8.3 [0.6.1-r3] USE="dbus tiff -debug -djvu -doc -dvi -gnome -t1lib"

 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge =app-text/evince-0.8.3
2. Will break


Actual Results:  
Here is a peace of output showing the problem:
------------------------------------------------
checking for intltool >= 0.35.0... 0.35.5 found
checking for perl... /usr/bin/perl
checking for XML::Parser... configure: error: XML::Parser perl module is required for intltool

Succesfully installed evince. Maybe, have some other newer version as it's dependency.

x11-libs/vte-0.16.6-r1 shows the same behavior.

[Comment 4 José Otávio Rizzatti Ferreira 2007-08-12 19:43:00 UTC]

Re-emerging dev-perl/XML-Parser-2.34 solved the problem with x11-libs/vte-0.16.6-r1.
Now evince breaks when building, due to problems with libexpat.so.0.
I have rebuild dev-libs/expat-2.0.1 and running:
# revdep-rebuild -X --library libexpat.so.0

The packages that need to be rebuilt:
emerge --oneshot  =sys-devel/gettext-0.16.1 =sys-apps/dbus-1.0.2-r2 =media-libs/mesa-6.5.2-r1 =dev-libs/dbus-glib-0.73 =media-gfx/graphviz-2.12 =net-dns/avahi-0.6.19-r2 =sys-apps/hal-0.5.9-r1 

[Comment 5 José Otávio Rizzatti Ferreira 2007-08-12 21:13:50 UTC]

rebuilding XML-Parser and expat solved the problem.
