Bug 119240 – SexyPSF 0.4.7 doesn't compile

• Status: RESOLVED TEST-REQUEST
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description David Masover 2006-01-16 15:42:30 UTC]

After attempting to compile/install, I get these errors:

gcc   PsxBios.o PsxCounters.o PsxDma.o Spu.o PsxHw.o PsxMem.o Misc.o R3000A.o PsxInterpreter.o PsxHLE.o spu/spu.o xmms/xmms.o -o libsexypsf.so -shared -lz

make: *** [sexypsf] Error 1



I've discovered that this doesn't happen if I simply flip the build order -- build the plugin first, then the commandline app.  Attaching a patch as soon as it lets me...

Created attachment 77302 [details, diff]
Patch to sexypsf-0.4.7.ebuild

Builds the commandline app after the plugin, instead of the other way around.  Makes sexypsf actually compile for me, on my amd64.

Thanks for the patch, but it's a workaround, and not a fix, because it then uses the object files built with -fPIC to generate the application (only the library should be built with -fPIC).

I can build it just fine here, so I'm not really sure this is the problem, but could you please instead try changing (in the original ebuild, of course)

emake CPU="${CPU}" XMMSCONF="${XMMSCONF}" clean sexypsf || die "emake failed"

to

make clean || die "make clean failed"
emake CPU="${CPU}" XMMSCONF="${XMMSCONF}" sexypsf || die "emake failed"

(moving the 'clean' to a separate 'make' invocation) and report back whether that fixes it? If it doesn't fix it, could you please provide your emerge --info, and the full output of `emerge sexypsf` ?

Please re-open when you get the chance to test.

Harald, I get the same error as David with the original ebuild (I think it is related to the xmms or bmp plugin, it compiles without them), so I tested your fix and it works, you can commit it.

Cheers

Thanks, and done.
