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 |

!!! ERROR: the ./configure command did not complete successfully.!!! |
15 |
("./configure --datadir=/share/ --with-data-dir=/usr/share/tuxracer |

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. |

34 |

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. |

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. |
