Description Wladyslaw Bodzek 2005-08-13 09:26:47 UTC

media-plugins/eq-xmms fails to emerge on fresh install of xmms without other
plugins installed. 

Here is output from emerge:

[ ... ]
checking for GTK - version >= 1.2.7... yes
checking for ANSI C header files... (cached) yes
checking for sort... /bin/sort
checking for uniq... /bin/uniq
checking for Effect plugin dir... /usr/lib/xmms/Effect
checking for directory /usr/lib/xmms/Effect... no
checking for directory /usr/lib/xmms/Plugins... no
configure: error: *** No suitable plugin directory found. Use --libdir to
specify. ***

Installing some other plugins media-plugins/xmms-* fixes the problem because
their ebuilds create this directory.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Emerge fails.

Expected Results:  
eq-xmms should be installed

Comment 3 eric barons 2006-01-10 07:52:52 UTC

a mkdir /usr/lib/xmms/Effect and mkdir /usr/lib/xmms/Plugins seems to solve the problem if no other plugins were found.
