Reference fixed ebuild, with workaround for qt5 [1]. [1] https://github.com/okias/ixit/tree/master/media-video/vlc Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. install qtcore:5 and qtgui:5 2. emerge -v =vlc-9999 3. notice, that vlc detect qt 5.x.y Actual Results: VLC use MOC from /usr/bin/moc and/or UIC from /usr/bin/uic, which refers to 4.8.x version. This behaviour end with compilation fail, because from .ui files is code generated by Qt:4 instead detected Qt:5 Expected Results: VLC should USE qt4 and qt5. In case QT5 use, for this moment I avoided fail by exporting UIC and MOC and replacing path (hardcoding to qt5).
Created attachment 361362 [details, diff] vlc-9999.patch Patch by comparing ebuild from overlay against ebuild in the Portage tree.
@scarabeus: See #gentoo-desktop ping. @media-video: Are you looking for a dedicated maintainer for this package?
Will try to evaluate this tomorrow.
For this to be introduced qtcore:5 and qtgui:5 first have to make it to the Portage tree. dependency.badmasked 2 media-video/vlc/vlc-9999.ebuild: DEPEND: **(empty profile) ['dev-qt/qtgui:5', 'dev-qt/qtcore:5'] media-video/vlc/vlc-9999.ebuild: RDEPEND: **(empty profile) ['dev-qt/qtgui:5', 'dev-qt/qtcore:5'] Regardless, I agree to add it under a slightly modified version of your patch once it hits the Portage tree; until then we'll have to wait for the tracker bug.
Actually, due to the USE flag being masked I can actually add it without the need for it to be present in the Portage tree; this was discussed with other Gentoo Developers on our IRC channel (#gentoo-dev). This work is part of the following commit: + 21 Oct 2013; Tom Wijsman <TomWij@gentoo.org> + -files/vlc-2.1.0-freetype-proper-default-font.patch, metadata.xml, + vlc-9999.ebuild: + Worked further on the 2.1.0 version bump: Added USE flags and dependencies to + support fdk(aac), opus, tremor, vdpau and vpx. Added support for the upcming + Qt 5 release. Added missing dependencies (libgpg-error used in HTML + communication, libidn which is used by most objects, gdb-pixbuf, glib and xcb- + util-keysyms) SLOTted all dependencies, used the slot operator where + dependencies have sub slots; to avoid incorrect dependencies, new SLOTs and + overlays versions from breaking the vlc package. Moved gettext to RDEPEND as + it was duplicated. Remove _FORTIFY_SOURCE definition as it is set to Gentoo's + default to shorten the build log by removing unnecessary warnings. Removed the + freetype patch as the configure parameters work. Ensured that there are less + to none automagic dependencies. Enumerated almost all configure parameters as + there were some missing. Removed oss due to compile error due to missing + package. Run tests using virtualx to avoid a window from popping up. + Simplified src_install. Documented fdk, tremor and vpx USE flags in + metadata.xml. More changes and testing will follow; there still appear + warnings and errors to look into (also resid_builder), which probably requires + configure.ac patching. Progress is being tracked mainly in bug #479566. Thank you for your contribution.
Thank you, marking as fixed.
