Bug 394953 – dev-embedded/gpsim - broken because of unslotted x11-libs/gtk+extra

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Robert Pearce 2011-12-16 16:46:56 UTC]

The gpsim ebuild currently fails because GPSim relies on GTK2 and GTK+extra-2.0, but while the GTK ebuild is slotted so that GTK2 and GTK3 can co-exist, the gtk_extra ebuild is not.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Get up to date (GTK3 enabled)
2. Attempt to emerge gpsim

Actual Results:  
The configure step fails to find gtkextra-2.0 because the gtk+extra ebuild has updated to 3.0

[Comment 1 Rafał Mużyło 2011-12-16 17:14:40 UTC]

gtk-extra 3.0.1 is still just gtk2.
(TBH, I don't see why that version of gtk+extra went into the tree anyway - it's incompatible with its previous versions, seems to have no significant improvements and is definitely *not* gtk3 ready).

### configure for gpsim-0.24.0-r has the following gtkextra-2.0 test ###

  $PKGCONFIG --exists gtkextra-2.0
  if test $? != 0; then
    { { $as_echo "$as_me:$LINENO: error: Cannot find gtkextra-2.0 package" >&5
$as_echo "$as_me: error: Cannot find gtkextra-2.0 package" >&2;}
   { (exit 1); exit 1; }; }
  fi

### eix shows that I have gtk+extra-3.0.1 installed ###

root@osage ~ # eix -e gtk+extra
[I] x11-libs/gtk+extra
     Available versions:  2.1.2-r1{tbz2} 3.0.1{tbz2} {+introspection static-libs}
     Installed versions:  3.0.1{tbz2}(08:40:44 PM 12/30/2011)(introspection -static-libs)
     Homepage:            http://gtkextra.sourceforge.net
     Description:         Useful Additional GTK+ widgets

### running "$PKGCONFIG --exists" shows a lack of gtkextra-2.1 and the presence of gtkextra-3.0 ###

root@osage ~ # /usr/bin/pkg-config --exists gtkextra-2.1; echo $?
1
root@osage ~ # /usr/bin/pkg-config --exists gtkextra-3.0; echo $?
0

Question:  shouldn't the ebuild (or configure) have a 2.1 vs 3.0 check ???

gpsim-0.26.1-gtkextra.patch fix this issue for me. But later I receive another failure that is fixed by evident patch that is already in upstream repository.

Please, review and apply or give me Ok.

Also reported this issue upstream:
