Bug 53174 – MythTV fails to compile because of bad glxext.h

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[Description dynamotwain 2004-06-06 17:03:30 UTC]

Attempting to emerge mythtv-0.15.1 results in an error because "'__GLXextFuncPtr' declared as a function returning a function"

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge =media-tv/mythtv-0.15.1
2. Go watch a Star Trek movie or something. This will take a while
3. Wait for it...
4. Look at the ugly error.

I've tried manually switching between xorg-x11's glxext.h and the newer one provided by nvidia-glx, but both produce the same error
Actual Results:  
In file included from vsync.c:38:
/usr/include/GL/glxext.h:374: error: syntax error before "glXGetProcAddress"
/usr/include/GL/glxext.h:376: error: syntax error before '*' token
/usr/include/GL/glxext.h:376: error: `__GLXextFuncPtr' declared as function
returning a function
make[2]: *** [vsync.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [sub-libmythtv] Error 2
make: *** [sub-libs] Error 2

!!! ERROR: media-tv/mythtv-0.15.1 failed.
!!! Function src_compile, Line 122, Exitcode 2
!!! compile problem


Expected Results:  
The ebuild actually merges

x11-base/xorg-x11-6.7.0
media-video/nvidia-kernel-1.0-5336-r3
media-video/nvidia-glx-1.0-5336
opengl-update nvidia

/usr/include/GL -> /usr/X11R6/include/GL
/usr/X11R6/GL/glxext.h is NOT a pointer
qpkg -f /usr/X11R6/GL/glxext.h
   x11-base/xorg-x11-6.7.0
