Bug 84609 – clustalx works with openmotif-2.2.3-r3, but ebuilds requires =x11-libs/openmotif-2.1*"

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

[Description Jan Paces 2005-03-09 02:06:58 UTC]

according to bug #82211 for amd platform, clustalx now requires =x11-libs/openmotif-2.1*. however, in x86 platform it works fine with latest version of openmotif (-2.2.3-r3). current ebuild is painfull, because during "emerge -vaDu world" it tries to upgrade to openmotif-2.2.3-r3 and next time downgrade back to openmotif-2.1.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. patch clustalx-1.83-r1.ebuild
19c19
<       =x11-libs/openmotif-2.1*"
---
>       x11-libs/openmotif"

2. emerge clustalx


Actual Results:  
clustalx works fine

Thanks for reporting. I am not convinced this is limited to amd64; I experienced the same bug on an x86 machine. For the time being, I would rather leave it at that. If the 2.2 branch works for you, however, there is an easy workaround: the latest versions of the OpenMotif ebuilds support "SLOT"s, meaning you can have both 2.1 and 2.2 installed at the same time (thanks to Heinrich Wendel). In a nutshell, I suggest:

# emerge --sync
# echo "=x11-libs/openmotif-2.1.30-r11 ~x86" >> "/etc/portage/package.keywords"
# echo "=x11-libs/openmotif-2.2.3-r5 ~x86" >> "/etc/portage/package.keywords"
# emerge --oneshot --unmerge --ask "openmotif"
# emerge --oneshot --ask "=openmotif-2.1.30-r11" "=openmotif-2.2.3-r5"

Please tell me if this solves your problem.

it works ok, it is necessary to unmask also motif config
echo "=x11-libs/motif-config-0.4 ~x86" >> "/etc/portage/package.keywords"

thanks

I am tagging this as WONTFIX since I failed to determine why OpenMotif 2.2 
will not work in some cases and there is an easy workaround. Once the new 
OpenMotif ebuilds are marked stable, this will not matter much anyway. Feel 
free to reopen if I missed something or if you have a better solution.
