I was doing |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
emrge app-games/tuxracer |
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
and got this: |
| 6 |
--- |
| 7 |
checking for GL library... yes |
| 8 |
checking for glXGetProcAddressARB... yes |
| 9 |
checking for GLU library... no |
| 10 |
checking for MesaGLU library... no |
| 11 |
checking for glu32 library... no |
| 12 |
configure: error: Cannot find GLU library |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
!!! ERROR: the ./configure command did not complete successfully.!!! |
| 15 |
("./configure --datadir=/share/ --with-data-dir=/usr/share/tuxracer |
| 16 |

| 17 |
!!! Since this is a critical task, ebuild will be stopped. |
| 18 |

| 19 |
|
| 20 |
I had to install GLU library manually with |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
emerge media-libs/mesa-glu |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
Then I was also installing Pan newreader, but note, I do *not* have a Gnome |
| 25 |
installation, and I got this: |
| 26 |
--- |
| 27 |
checking for gdk-pixbuf >= 0.10.1... configure: error: gdk-pixbuf 0.10.1 or |
| 28 |
higher is needed. RPM users also need gdk-pixbuf-devel. |

|

!!! ERROR: The ebuild did not complete successfully. |
| 31 |
!!! Function src_compile, Line 9, Exitcode 1 |
| 32 |
!!! (no error message) |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
!!! emerge aborting on /usr/portage/net-news/pan/pan-0.10.0.92.ebuild . |
| 35 |

| 36 |
as well as this: |
| 37 |
--- |
| 38 |
checking for libxml >= 1.8.11... configure: error: libxml 1.8.11 or higher is |
| 39 |
needed. RPM users also need libxml-devel. |

|
| 41 |
!!! ERROR: The ebuild did not complete successfully. |
| 42 |

!!! emerge aborting on /usr/portage/net-news/pan/pan-0.10.0.92.ebuild . |

|
| 48 |
After doing: |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
emerge dev-libs/libxml |
| 51 |
emerge media-libs/gdk-pixbuf |
| 52 |
|
| 53 |
Pan installed without problems, but... |
| 54 |
|
| 55 |
It ran OK the first time (missing Gnome foot icon in the config wizard), but |
| 56 |
when I close it down, it didn't want to start up again. Instead it |
| 57 |
complained like so: |
| 58 |
--- |
| 59 |
|
| 60 |
Gtk-WARNING **: invalid cast from (NULL) pointer to `GtkContainer' |
| 61 |
|
| 62 |
Gtk-WARNING **: invalid cast from (NULL) pointer to `GtkObject' |
| 63 |
--- |
| 64 |
and displayed Error/segfault box. |
| 65 |
|
| 66 |
Then I installed xchat, and that went fine. It installed a whole bunch more |
| 67 |
Gnome stuff. Xchat runs OK! No problems with Xchat. So I deleted |
| 68 |
.gnome/Pan and .pan/ and tried to start it again. I started up with the |
| 69 |
wizard again (because I deleted its settings), and this time it had a Gnome |
| 70 |
foot icon correctly displayed. I followed through, then quit and tried to |
| 71 |
start pan again... And it keeps dying the same way. I am guessing there are |
| 72 |
some dependencies still missing? |
| 73 |
|
| 74 |
Now, lately I think I've received quite a few useful tips here, and I |
| 75 |
wouldn't mind throwing up all the things I've learned so far (and managed to |
| 76 |
remember :) on a wiki site. I mean, a real wiki site :). I think gentoo |
| 77 |
could benefit a lot from an open wiki. I suggest moinmoin wiki, but anything |
| 78 |
where everyone can edit pages is fine. Any thoughts on this idea? This wiki |
| 79 |
wouldn't have to replace anything like real docs or your dev wiki. It would |
| 80 |
run side by side. |
