Bug 41399 – xmms-kde doesn't compile; can't find qt-mt lib

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

[Description Peter Humphrey 2004-02-12 10:36:22 UTC]

When trying to emerge xmms-kde the configure stage fails, thus:
wstn root # emerge xmms-kde

-----------------------

I couldn't find a library with a name like qt-mt, either locally or on packages.gentoo.org.
I looked at the .ebuild file, and it seems to be specifying threading ok. I re-emerged qt after that check, but with the same results on emerge xmms-kde.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge xmms-kde
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Configure failed as above. 

Expected Results:  
Successful completion.

The configure check fails to find Qt, and when you emerge Qt it fails to find Qt?

Do you use the nvidia drivers?  If so, your gl setup is broken and Qt is linked against nvidia's broken gl implementation.

[Comment 2 Peter Humphrey 2004-02-27 11:09:02 UTC]

Ok, so I unmerged nvidia-glx and nvidia-kernel, ran opengl-update xfree then re-emerged qt. But emerge xmms-kde still fails at the same point - it can't find the qt-mt library, even though it's there for all to see in /usr/qt/3 as libqt-mt.so.3.3.0.

[Comment 3 Caleb Tennis (RETIRED) 2004-02-27 12:58:36 UTC]

if you look in the config.log it will show a more detailed message of what's going on:

/var/tmp/portage/xmms-kde-3.1_beta1/work/xmms-kde-3.1_beta1/config.log

[Comment 4 Peter Humphrey 2004-02-28 04:24:45 UTC]

I'd already done that, but not seen what I needed to see. You made me go and look again, and I found I needed to add a couple of links:

(cd /usr/qt/3; ln -s ./lib ./lib64)
(cd /usr/kde/3.2; ln -s ./lib ./lib64)

Of course I did first check that those directories contained 64-bit code. xmms-kde now compiles ok, though I haven't yet built enough of a system to test it properly. Thanks for the prod.

[Comment 5 Daniel Ahlberg (RETIRED) 2004-03-10 05:26:27 UTC]

I've added a patch to CVS that fixes this.

[Comment 6 Danny van Dyk (RETIRED) 2004-03-20 15:40:47 UTC]

I've got it installed here
phi root # emerge -pv xmms-kde

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild   R   ] media-plugins/xmms-kde-3.1_beta1  +sdl +xmms  0 kB

Total size of downloads: 0 kB

Works like a charm ;-)

[Comment 7 Jason Huebel (RETIRED) 2004-03-21 10:44:36 UTC]

works for me. unmasking.

[Comment 8 Peter Humphrey 2004-04-06 05:49:42 UTC]

Also works fine for me now (I raised this bug). Can it now be closed? Thanks to Daniel Ahlberg.
