Bug 252871 – gst-plugin weirdness (10.21-r1) -- won't emerge. File collisions & missing libraries

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED INVALID

[Description Waldo 2008-12-28 22:32:44 UTC]

For about a week now I've been unable to emerge several gst-plugins which are required by various packages.  The two types of errors I am getting are file collisions and missing libraries.

Example:

 * Messages for package media-plugins/gst-plugins-cdparanoia-0.10.21:
 * 
 * Detected file collision(s):
 * 
 * 	/usr/lib64/gstreamer-0.10/libgstcdparanoia.so

# portageq owners / /usr/lib64/gstreamer-0.10/libgstcdparanoia.so
media-libs/gst-plugins-base-0.10.21-r1
	/usr/lib64/gstreamer-0.10/libgstcdparanoia.so

So there seems to be overlapping files w/gst-plugins-base and gst-plugins-cdparanoia.

The second type of error I'm getting is missing files during the emerge.  For example, when building media-plugins/gst-plugins-gnomevfs-0.10.21, I get this:

make: *** No rule to make target `/usr/lib64/libgsttag-0.10.la', needed by `libgstgnomevfs.la'.  Stop.

or when I try to build media-plugins/gst-plugins-x-0.10.21 I get this:

make: *** No rule to make target `/usr/lib64/libgstvideo-0.10.la', needed by `libgstximagesink.la'.  Stop.

These plugins are required by various packages:

# emerge -Duptv world

These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order:

qfile <filename> doesn't find the missing files.  I have tried revdep-rebuild as well and had problems.  Will try that again I guess.  Any suggestions?

Thanks,
W

Scratch that.  For some reason, gstreamer and gst-plugins-base (along with all the gst-plugins) were in /etc/package.unmask.  They are what broke this, and rebuilding the ~amd64 versions seems to be fixing the problem.

I am inclined to kill those monolithic revision from the tree soon because there has been no reasonable explanation given why it makes sense to introduce monolithic plugin packages

Is causing? package.mask is there for an reason, seems pebcak.

USE deps in stable tree, Portage 2.2 with better block handling to smooth the transition, easier maintaintance, easier to add new plugins (see ChangeLog gst-plugins-bad for example), dropped libtool files & static libs as unnecessary, as such build (link) times doesn't get much longer. Besides
we are already building the whole sets (internal plugins as well) over and over again (just see what media-plugins/gst-plugins-cdparanoia for example does).

So as for perfomance, install time..

But please do kill them, if you want. They have been package.masked from the beginning, as i'm far from done with those. That's what the package.mask is
for, for packages not ready for public consumption..

We can discuss the pros and cons soon as I'm in IRC again?
