Bug 339885 – net-dns/avahi-0.6.28.ebuild fails on configuration

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Randy Tupas 2010-10-06 01:17:02 UTC]

avahi-0.6.28.ebuild fails on configuration:
"configure: error: Package requirements ( libdaemon >= 0.14 ) were not met:

Requested 'libdaemon >= 0.14' but version of libdaemon is 0.13"

Ebuild only requires: "RDEPEND=">=dev-libs/libdaemon-0.11-r1"


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.upgrade to unstable avahi
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
ebuild failed on configure:
"configure: error: Package requirements ( libdaemon >= 0.14 ) were not met:

Requested 'libdaemon >= 0.14' but version of libdaemon is 0.13"


Expected Results:  
sucessfully compile avahi

recommend bump RDEPEND for libdaemon to >=0.14

Hello Randy,

thanks for your report, but can you please attach a full build.log (mentioned at the end of the failed emerge process).

Thanks, Michael

I've bumped the dependency to 0.14, if this doesn't fix your problem please reopen.

configure: error: Package requirements ( libdaemon >= 0.14 ) were not met:

Package 'libdaemon' has no Name: field

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

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

!!! Please attach the following file when seeking support:

LIBDAEMON_LIBS=/usr/lib64 emerge -1 avahi did the trick for me to get past configure() - but things fail later with:

Could you try running

  pkg-config --debug libdaemon

and check which .pc pkg-config uses. libdaemon-0.14 includes a Name field in the .pc files.
