Bug 562484 – media-video/mkvtoolnix-8.5.2 stable request

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Pacho Ramos 2015-10-07 13:52:37 UTC]

Apart of fixing tons of bugs over our old stable version, it also uses wxwidgets 3.0 finally

Thanks

well, upstream dropped wxwidgets support in 8.4.0, can we wait for this one ?

[Comment 2 Pacho Ramos 2015-10-17 09:23:29 UTC]

Ah, that is another option too :)

[Comment 3 Alexis Ballier 2015-10-17 09:34:59 UTC]

if you don't mind waiting a few weeks, I'd prefer it that way: I imagine upstream dropped the wxwidgets gui because it was not maintained

[Comment 4 Pacho Ramos 2015-10-17 09:46:52 UTC]

Sure, there are still plenty of packages to move to wxGTK3 and, then, we can wait for sure

[Comment 5 Pacho Ramos 2015-11-03 15:39:28 UTC]

As a side note, I have seen you are still setting WX_GTK_VER="3.0" in all new ebuilds even if it should not be needed :)

We are near to 30 days since 8.5.2 bump... could we stabilize that version then?
Thanks

yep, go ahead

I ran in a not new problem, described here: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-7854234.html
The post is marked as [SOLVED], but I really don't understand how is it solved. Also, I cannot find the announced bug.
Many details in the forum post.

My issue is resolved with
echo dev-libs/boost abi_x86_32 >> /etc/portage/package.use

Even if it is unusual for machines where folks install mkvtoolnix (usually desktops, full of multilib needs), the machine where I encountered the issue didn't have any abi_x86_32 enabled packages.
Giving the multilib support for boost (and other packages correctly advised by --autounmask) resolved the issue.

I think that it should managed as and ebuild bug.
