Bug 429736 – kde-base/marble should depend on x11-libs/qt-core[iconv]

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED INVALID

[Description Bash Vi 2012-08-03 22:23:00 UTC]

I got marble running on box 1, but on box 2 it would not start.
The terminal didn't output anything, no error-message and nothing and it would not return to the prompt either, but marble would not start.
On box 1 though it starts just fine. So I started going through the packages marble depends on and checked their useflags.
I found that the iconv use-flag in qt-core was set on box 1 (where marble was working) but it was *not* set on box 2, where marble wasn't working.
So I enabled the use-flag and recompiled qt-core. After that, marble started fine.

To make sure that's the cause, I recompiled qt-core on box 1 with iconv disabled. Afterwards, marble didn't start there. So I'm pretty sure that's the cause of the problem.

I guess marble should enforce the iconv use-flag to be set in qt-core.

Works for me:

I tried some combinations of use flags on qt-core... Here are the results:

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

So I guess it's gotta be more complicated than just the qt-core use-flags. 
Is there some additional information I can provide that would help?

Try to run revdep-rebuild.
