Bug 227895 – x11-apps/xf86dga-1.0.2 fails to build

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Evil Compile Person 2008-06-17 17:23:24 UTC]

checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config
checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes
checking for XF86DGA... configure: error: Package requirements (x11 xxf86dga xt xaw7 xmu) were not met:

No package 'xaw7' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables XF86DGA_CFLAGS
and XF86DGA_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

[Comment 1 Robert R. Russell 2008-11-12 05:43:12 UTC]

This compilation failure is fixed by emerging libXaw. I have tested version 1.0.3 and 1.0.4 on amd64 and 1.0.4 on x86.

[Comment 2 Andrew Church 2009-02-23 14:31:00 UTC]

Created attachment 182894 [details, diff]
Add missing dependencies

Depending on installed packages, the following can also pop up:

No package 'xt' found
No package 'xmu' found

(as just occurred to me setting up a fresh AMD64 system).  This patch to the ebuild should fix the problem.

[Comment 3 Rémi Cardona (RETIRED) 2009-09-24 07:40:53 UTC]

The code was fixed in git to stop using lib{Xaw,Xt,Xmu} headers, so I've backported this patch instead, without a revbump.

Thanks
