Description kapsh 2016-07-19 22:00:20 UTC

I cannot update gtk to 3.20.6 with the following errors:

src_prepare error:
Failed Running gtkdocize !

gtkdocize error:
cp: cannot stat '/usr/share/gtk-doc/data/gtk-doc.notmpl.make': No such file or directory

It seems that this file doesn't exist anywhere on my system. 

This issue is also affects gnome-base/librsvg update, maybe more.

This fix has created a new problem,

Now, an emerge of gtk+ automatically installs the gtk-docs on my system even though I have "-docs" specified in my USE flags.  This did not happen with the previous ebuild files.

If I remove the 2 insertions from the ebuild I can emerge gtk+ without error and without automatically installing the gtk-docs.

Can't some other fix be done without destroying the old behavior when emerging gtk+?

Comment 5 Francisco J. Vazquez 2016-08-06 14:30:26 UTC

Same here as comment 4. Compiling gtk+-3.20.8 without gtk-doc works fine. The new dependency however brings with it 12 other unneeded packages.

[master f35dc11] x11-libs/gtk+: gtk-doc is not really needed as eautoreconf skips when gtkdocize (installed by gtk-doc) is not present.

And the original bug is invalid as the run is skipped when gtkdocize is not present (and it's installed by gtk-doc)

Hello,
Sorry for this false alarm. I figured out now that I had orphaned /usr/bin/gtkdocize file (but no gtk-doc package installed). Can't say how it was happened but it looks like it was the cause of this issue.
