Bug 493832 – net-libs/webkit-gtk-2.0.4 - /usr/bin/g-ir-scanner loops infinitely in WebKit-3.0.gir make target

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Bernd Waibel 2013-12-10 11:57:46 UTC]

When compiling webkit-gtk-2.0.4 the compile process at one time catches the assertion

(process:32407): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_class_install_property: assertion `class->set_property != NULL' failed

but instead of breaking the build, it seems to run into an infinite loop and runs forever. I tried several times using emerge and ebuild, with the same results and CTRL-C'ed the process after 12+ hours running.

I was first thinking, it's the same bug as in Bug #483610 and posted there, but someone there told me, that it's a different bug and I should post a new report. The bug also looks similar to Bug #493014 and Bug #493136 but they are marked as duplicates of #483610 so now I'm writing this new report. I'll attach the emerge --info and a compressed build log (beeing 64MB in size uncompressed)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. eselect profile set default/linux/amd64/13.0/desktop/gnome/systemd
2. emerge -DaquvN @world
3.
Actual Results:  
build of webkit-gtk-2.0.4 hangs

Expected Results:  
build of webkit-gtk-2.0.4 succeeds and update can continue

Please attach the entire build log to this bug report.

tail of build.log

Only the last 185+ lines being the relevant one, as the compressed build.log won't currently upload. I'll come back and try again later, once I'm back home.

Do you have nvidia drivers? Does setting "eselect opengl" to x11 during building help?

[Comment 6 Bernd Waibel 2013-12-11 22:34:13 UTC]

Yes, I do use nvidia-drivers. I'm currently trying to build, coming back with more information later.

[Comment 7 Bernd Waibel 2013-12-12 07:08:07 UTC]

The package successfully built, when using xorg-x11 opengl drivers!

Does anyone know what's the cause of the problem here with the nvidia-drivers?

[Comment 8 Pacho Ramos 2013-12-12 18:25:27 UTC]

This is a dupe of bug 463960, what nvidia-drivers version are you using?

[Comment 9 Bernd Waibel 2013-12-12 21:26:59 UTC]

I am using nvidia-drivers-331.20

will help you

[Comment 12 Bernd Waibel 2013-12-12 22:08:08 UTC]

I will try this out, once the update is finished. Currently there's an additional fail with libreoffice (which I can ignore for some time, if the rest of the packages are updating).

[Comment 13 Juanlu Pérez 2014-01-09 09:58:03 UTC]

I'm still getting this bug with nvidia-drivers-304.117
