gnome-extra/deskbar-applet-2.26.2 fails to emerge due to error in configure script preventing detection of gnomeapplet Python module. It seems that the configure script has a small double paste of the gnomeapplet detection code, after adding following patch to local ebuild, configure and compilation of package worked fine: *** configure Mon May 18 19:04:35 2009 --- configure Mon Aug 10 10:43:10 2009 *************** *** 15103,15120 **** except: pass '") >&5 - (DISPLAY= $PYTHON -c ' - import pygtk - pygtk.require("2.0") - - try: - import gnomeapplet - except ImportError, e: - if str(e).find("gnomeapplet") >= 0: - raise - except: - pass - ') 2>&5 ac_status=$? $as_echo "$as_me:$LINENO: \$? = $ac_status" >&5 (exit $ac_status); }; then --- 15103,15108 ---- Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerging gnomeapplet Python module 2. emerge fails Actual Results: checking for DESKBAR... yes checking for gnomeapplet module... ./configure: line 15129: 17701 Segmentation fault ( DISPLAY= $PYTHON -c ' import pygtk pygtk.require("2.0") try: import gnomeapplet except ImportError, e: if str(e).find("gnomeapplet") >= 0: raise except: pass ' ) 2>&5 no configure: error: gnomeapplet Python module required to build deskbar !!!

emerge --info and config.log please. I suspect this is a python-updater run missing.

I have ran python-updater several times, to no avail. I have also re-emerged all packets that I could suspect as being possible causes. Only thing that I could try is emerge -e for the package. Which I don't really find logical as the patch I mentioned at first did make the package compile and install just fine. Problem is that the configure script fails to run the following python code: ----------------------- import pygtk pygtk.require("2.0") try: import gnomeapplet except ImportError, e: if str(e).find("gnomeapplet") >= 0: raise except: pass ----------------------- I tested basically same script with prints for verifying execution: ----------------------- python -c ' import pygtk pygtk.require("2.0") try: import gnomeapplet except ImportError, e: if str(e).find("gnomeapplet") >= 0: print "ImportError" raise except: print "pass" pass print "end" ' ----------------------- Executing this prints: ----------------------- /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gtk/__init__.py:57: GtkWarning: could not open display warnings.warn(str(e), _gtk.Warning) end ----------------------- Which means the gnomeapplet can be imported just fine, the configure script just won't detect the output right. emerge --info ------------------------- Portage 2.1.6.13 (default/linux/amd64/2008.0, gcc-4.3.4, glibc-2.10.1-r0, 2.6.27.7 x86_64) ================================================================= System uname: Linux-2.6.27.7-x86_64-Intel-R-_Core-TM-2_CPU_6600_@_2.40GHz-with-gentoo-2.0.1 Timestamp of tree: Mon, 10 Aug 2009 04:45:03 +0000 app-shells/bash: 4.0_p28 dev-java/java-config: 2.1.8-r1 dev-lang/python: 2.6.2-r1, 3.1 dev-python/pycrypto: 2.0.1-r8 dev-util/cmake: 2.6.4-r2 sys-apps/baselayout: 2.0.1 sys-apps/openrc: 0.4.3-r3 sys-apps/sandbox: 2.0 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.63-r1 sys-devel/automake: 1.7.9-r1, 1.9.6-r2, 1.10.2, 1.11 sys-devel/binutils: 2.19.1-r1 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.4.1 sys-devel/libtool: 2.2.6a virtual/os-headers: 2.6.30-r1 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64 ~amd64" CBUILD="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O2 -pipe" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/3.5/env /usr/kde/3.5/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/shutdown /usr/share/config" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/ca-certificates.conf /etc/env.d /etc/env.d/java/ /etc/eselect/postgresql /etc/fonts/fonts.conf /etc/gconf /etc/gentoo-release /etc/php/apache2-php5/ext-active/ /etc/php/cgi-php5/ext-active/ /etc/php/cli-php5/ext-active/ /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/sandbox.d /etc/terminfo /etc/udev/rules.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="distlocks fixpackages parallel-fetch protect-owned sandbox sfperms strict unmerge-orphans userfetch" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://gentoo.tnnet.fi/gentoo/" LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1" MAKEOPTS="-j3" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_CONFIGROOT="/" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --stats --timeout=180 --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/portage/local" SYNC="rsync://gentoo.tnnet.fi/gentoo-portage" USE="X a52 aac acl alsa amd64 amr apache2 berkdb bzip2 cgi cli cracklib crypt cups dbus directv dri dts dvb dvd emerald encode ffmpeg fftw filter firefox fortran gd gdbm glitz gnome gpm gtk hauppauge_dvb iconv imlib ipv6 isdnlog java jpeg kde keyscrub mmx mode-owner mp3 mp4live mpeg mudflap multilib mysql ncurses network nls nptl nptlonly ogg opengl openmp overlays pam pcre pdf perl pic png pppd python qt3 qt3support qt4 readline reflection rpc samba sdl session skins sockets spl sqlite sse sse2 ssl svg sysfs tcpd theora tiff truetype unicode v4l v4l2 vorbis wmp wxwindows x264 xinerama xorg xv xvid zlib" ALSA_CARDS="ali5451 als4000 atiixp atiixp-modem bt87x ca0106 cmipci emu10k1x ens1370 ens1371 es1938 es1968 fm801 hda-intel intel8x0 intel8x0m maestro3 trident usb-audio via82xx via82xx-modem ymfpci" ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS="adpcm alaw asym copy dmix dshare dsnoop empty extplug file hooks iec958 ioplug ladspa lfloat linear meter mmap_emul mulaw multi null plug rate route share shm softvol" APACHE2_MODULES="actions alias auth_basic auth_digest authn_anon authn_dbd authn_dbm authn_default authn_file authz_dbm authz_default authz_groupfile authz_host authz_owner authz_user autoindex cache cgi cgid dav dav_fs dav_lock dbd deflate dir disk_cache env expires ext_filter file_cache filter headers ident imagemap include info log_config logio mem_cache mime mime_magic negotiation proxy proxy_ajp proxy_balancer proxy_connect proxy_http rewrite setenvif so speling status unique_id userdir usertrack vhost_alias" ELIBC="glibc" INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse evdev" KERNEL="linux" LCD_DEVICES="bayrad cfontz cfontz633 glk hd44780 lb216 lcdm001 mtxorb ncurses text" USERLAND="GNU" VIDEO_CARDS="nv nvidia v4l" Unset: CPPFLAGS, CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, FFLAGS, INSTALL_MASK, LANG, LC_ALL, LINGUAS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS
Downgrading eselect-python from app-admin/eselect-python-20090804 to app-admin/eselect-python-20090606 solved the problem for me. It's a eselect-python bug.
