mplayerplug-in fails to compile because several header files cannot be located. The files that cannot be found reside in /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/include/xpcom, which is not included in a "-I" parameter to the compiler.

Same problem with mplayerplug-in-3.31-r1.
That's because the pkgconfig file in firefox-2.0.0.2 has changed: --- mozilla-firefox-2.0.0.1/work/mozilla/build/unix/mozilla-plugin.pc.in 2005-04-22 18:11:13.000000000 +0100 +++ mozilla-firefox-2.0.0.2/work/mozilla/build/unix/mozilla-plugin.pc.in 2007-02-04 11:45:24.000000000 +0100 @@ -6,5 +6,5 @@ Name: Mozilla Plug-In API Description: Mozilla Plug-In API Version: %MOZILLA_VERSION% -Requires: %MOZ_APP_NAME%-xpcom = %MOZILLA_VERSION% +Requires: %NSPR_NAME% >= %NSPR_VERSION% Cflags: -I${includedir}/java -I${includedir}/plugin Is due to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=366113 , so i guess you should poke mplayerplug-in upstream :)
I've submitted a bug to the mplayerplug-in project. However, even if they fix it upstream, how will that help with earlier/current versions of the plug-in here in Gentoo?
Created attachment 111215 [details] mplayerplug-in-0.3.1_fx-2.0.0.2.patch This is a hackish way to do it. It's for 0.31. It seems that it compiles, dunno if it works. It should... With this we are obtaining the both CFLAGS from firefox-plugin.pc and firefox-xpcom.pc. Blame mozilla...

Please see the SourceForge bug. The problem seems to be coming down to how the pkg-config files are set up in Gentoo.

The problem seems to be coming down to how the > pkg-config files are set up in Gentoo. > As i said, look at the diff i posted in comment #3. Gentoo doesn't touch the pkgconfig files. The diff i posted is from the firefox source. Look at the mozilla bug, they said: "mozilla-plugin.pc should not depend in mozilla-xpcom.pc. Plugins should use mozilla-xpcom.pc directly." Although in this case, using mozilla-xpcom.pc fails with another error due to missing files. That is fixed using the patch i attached, which obtains both Cflags(that is, the -I variables) from mozilla-xpcom.pc and mozilla-plugin.pc. Tell mplayerplug-in upstream to blame mozilla, not us. We didn't touch anything.

*** Bug 168498 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Thanks for tracking this down. :) The fix is in CVS for both 3.31 and 3.35.
