[gentoo-user] gst-plugins-alsa-0.8.11 compile failure

[R'twick Niceorgaw]

Hi,

I was doing a emerge -u world and gst-plugins-alsa-0.8.11 failed. the
last few messages on screen are
---------------
configure: *** These plugins will not be built: xvid
checking asm/atomic.h usability... yes
checking asm/atomic.h presence... yes
checking for asm/atomic.h... yes
checking for freetype2 >= 2.0.9... yes
checking FT2_CFLAGS... -I/usr/include/freetype2
checking FT2_LIBS... -lfreetype -lz
configure: Using GStreamer source release as package name
configure: Using http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/ as package origin
configure: error: conditional "HAVE_XFIXES" was never defined.
Usually this means the macro was only invoked conditionally.

!!! Please attach the config.log to your bug report:
!!! /var/tmp/portage/gst-plugins-alsa-0.8.11/work/gst-plugins-0.8.11/config.log

-----------------

I searched in forums as well as google but couldn't find anything
usefull. Has anybody experienced this?

Regards
-R'twick

  I had experienced the same problem and I have solved it by emerge sync
  to actual packages. Looks like some patch was missing there. Anyway I
  also recompiled media-libs/gst-plugins at first after sync. After that
  I was able to successfully compile gst-plugins-*.

  	Cheers,
	Martin
