Description David Taylor 2005-07-19 17:02:46 UTC

My USE Flags are rather extensive, but include "-arts" as I do not use arts.
When emerging knetscan, the configure dies due to lack of arts, without taking
into account that it is not supposed to be building with arts support (See below).

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. USE="-arts" emerge kde-meta (if kde not installed)
2  USE="-arts" emerge knetscan


Actual Results:  


# emerge -vp knetscan:
[ebuild  N    ] net-analyzer/knetscan-1.0  -arts -debug -kdeenablefinal -xinerama

# emerge knetscan
[configures.....]
checking for mcopidl... not found
configure: error: The important program mcopidl was not found!
Please check whether you installed KDE correctly.


!!! ERROR: net-analyzer/knetscan-1.0 failed.
!!! Function kde_src_compile, Line 152, Exitcode 1
!!! died running ./configure, kde_src_compile:configure
!!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, NOT this status message.


Expected Results:  
Compile without arts support

Comment 1 David Taylor 2005-07-19 17:06:29 UTC

Oh, and, myconf="--without-arts" didn't help either.

netmon herd: Most often the software doesn't use arts and it's just the
configure check to be removed via a patch, but this package looks dead upstream...

Created attachment 74586 [details, diff]
knetscan-1.0-configure-arts.patch

David, do you mind testing out this patch?

Comment 4 Marcelo Goes (RETIRED) gentoo-dev

2005-12-25 09:20:16 UTC

Please reopen after having tested the patch.

Patching configure file is a no-go.
I have two ways to resolve this: either you force arts with ARTS_REQUIRED="yes", or you need to update the admin dir.. I can prepare an ebuild for that later today, just a second that I'm messed up in the autoconf 2.59d debacle.

Hoping that net-analyzer won't be upset, I've added a 1.0-r1 in ~arch that uses the 3.5.3 admindir and thus solves the problem.
