Description Ben de Groot (RETIRED) gentoo-dev

2010-03-26 19:16:27 UTC

The attached URL has a list with ebuilds still using the deprecated qt4 eclass. These ebuilds should be migrated to use qt4-r2.eclass instead.

Things to note regarding this migration:

1. ebuilds with an EAPI <2 should be migrated to use EAPI=3
   this means using separate src_prepare and src_configure stages,
   as well as implementing use deps and slot notation
2. QT4_BUILT_WITH_USE_CHECK and QT4_OPTIONAL_BUILT_WITH_USE_CHECK should be
   replaced with use deps
3. eqmake4 can now find most .pro files automatically, so you most likely
   can simply use the default qt4-r2_src_configure function
4. we now have exported default src_configure, src_compile and
   src_install functions
5. LANGS and LANGSLONG variables provide automatic generation of expanded
   linguas_* useflags
6. DOCS and DOCSDIR variables will install documentation using the default
   qt4-r2_src_install function

Consult the Qt4-based-ebuild-howto documentation for extended info

Comment 2 Sergey Ilinykh 2010-04-12 12:38:53 UTC

it seems it's impossible anymore to call eqmake4 with arguments like:
MY_QMAKE_FLAG="VAL1 VAL2 VAL3"

worked fine with previous eclass

i have ebuild in my overlay which executes eqmake4 myapp.pro ENABLED_PLUGINS="plugin1 plugin2" and this doesn't work. just "qmake" works fine.

There must be something wrong with your ebuild

eqmake4 <project.pro> "<parameter>=<value>" works on eqmake4

Please attach build.log and your ebuild

Comment 4 Sergey Ilinykh 2010-04-12 13:10:35 UTC

Markos, try to read more closely my message, it contains useful info ;-)

Comment 5 Sergey Ilinykh 2010-04-12 13:39:18 UTC

when executing qmake in the eclass you must surround ${qmake_args} with quotes to make it work properly

All ebuilds have been migrated or removed from the tree. The qt4.eclass was lastrited a month ago and has now been removed.
