Bug 250712 – media-video/gephex-0.4.4 version bump (or 0.4.3 removal)

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED CANTFIX

[Description Samuli Suominen (RETIRED) 2008-12-12 16:08:11 UTC]

I was trying to bump gephex to 0.4.4, but..

/bin/sh ../../../libtool --tag=CC   --mode=link i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc  -fpic -O2 -march=athlon-xp -pipe -shared -fpic -Wl,-O1,--as-needed -o chromakeymodule.so chromakeymodule-chromakeymodule_auto.o chromakeymodule-chromakeymodule.o  
libtool: link: i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -fpic -O2 -march=athlon-xp -pipe -fpic -Wl,-O1 -Wl,--as-needed -o chromakeymodule.so chromakeymodule-chromakeymodule_auto.o chromakeymodule-chromakeymodule.o 
/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.3.2/../../../crt1.o: In function `_start':
(.text+0x18): undefined reference to `main'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[4]: *** [chromakeymodule.so] Error 1

Other issues..

- It has old bundled FFMPEG.
- It needs GCC 4.3 patching (attaching one here, might be unfinished)
- It needs patching to find libmpeg3 (attaching one here, might be unfinished)

Created attachment 175114 [details]
Ebuild for 0.4.4.

Might want to simply --without-FFMPEG because bundled junk blows.

Fix configure.ac to find libmpeg3.

It also needs libXv as a dep wrt bug 239799. At least build-time.

So as said, this is a work in progress but it's a starting point for someone.
I lost my intrest. Current version 0.4.3 also fails with GCC 4.3.2.

[Comment 6 Samuli Suominen (RETIRED) 2008-12-12 16:36:54 UTC]

In fact, because the current version and the new version both are incompatible with GCC 4.3, I'm requesting removal of this package. CCing treecleaners.

You can see the justifications in this bug.

18:13 <@aballier> ssuominen: (gephex error) seems its missing the -shared option at link
18:14 <@aballier> check if you've not been overiding it with your ldflags

but as said I totally lost intrest in the package for now.
