Description Small_Penguin 2008-12-20 16:25:31 UTC
tracker will not build without a gtk-doc.make file in the ${S} directory. However, there is no such file provided by the svn repository.

I solved this by copying a gtk-doc.make file from thunar over into the portage working directory, but I think there has to be a better solution.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge tracker

Actual Results:  
Failed tracker-9999 compilation.

Error message in automake output:
  "Cannot open < gtk-doc.make"

Expected Results:  
tracker-9999 successfully compiled.

dev-util/gtk-doc is not installed.
dev-util/gtk-doc-am-1.10-r1 is installed.

Compilation works after copying gtk-doc.make into ${S}.

Thanks for reporting this problem; assigning to maintainer.
Comment 2 Gilles Dartiguelongue (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-01-16 09:26:54 UTC
needs to call gtkdocize of gtkdoc-prepare before eautoreconf.

seems like a fix was found for this:

"Compilation works after copying gtk-doc.make into ${S}."

and

"needs to call gtkdocize of gtkdoc-prepare before eautoreconf."

however, not sure what either of these mean :)  sorry, new Gentoo user.  is it possible to get the new ebuild?

thanks.

a) Why is this in tree? This belongs in the gnome-live.git overlay
b) ebuild has not been updated for the move to git
c) ebuild has not been updated /at all/

=> This needs to be updated and moved to the overlay. This has no place in the tree

No, why?  It duplicates patches and makes combined maintenance a mess. My vote against it and for closing as INVALID. Updating the build is a different story. If you can use help from me on that, please contact me.
