[gentoo-user] KDE 3.5 : Kicker & other ebuilds fail

[gentoo-user] KDE 3.5 : Kicker & other ebuilds fail

[Philip Webb]

Before I submit a bug report, has anyone had a similar experience ?
Does anyone have anything to suggest to try first ?

I started to install KDE 3.5 (split) -- still ~x86 -- & got Kdelibs done,
then went on to Kdebase-startkde, which pulls in  17  dependencies.
Some of them went thro' ok, but then Kicker refused as below; I tried others
& Khelpcenter Kdebase-kioslaves Kdesu Ksplashml failed at the same point.
I took time out to get my Docbook pkgs upto-date, but no change.

I checked Bugs & Forum & found nothing directly on this nor any solution,
tho' a couple of people had run into it with Khelpcenter 3.4.1
(I have 3.4.1 installed & working perfectly well).

The relevant error lines for Kicker seem to be the following :

  make[2]: Entering directory `/z/tmp/portage/kicker-3.5.0/work/kicker-3.5.0/doc'
  Making all in kicker
  make[3]: Entering directory `/z/tmp/portage/kicker-3.5.0/work/kicker-3.5.0/doc/kicker'
  /usr/kde/3.5/bin/meinproc --check --cache index.cache.bz2 ./index.docbook
  XPath error : Undefined variable
  compilation error: file /usr/kde/3.5/share/apps/ksgmltools2/docbook/xsl/html/autotoc.xsl line 544 element div
  Attribute template class: failed to compile $titles

Other lines further down include :

  concat('ln-',$id,$html.ext)
  ...
  substring-before($stylesheets, ' ')
  ...
  unable to parse ./index.docbook

Anyone have thoughts or suggestions before I submit a bug report ?

I did an emerge kdebase-startkde and didn't see any errors, but the  
kicker doesn't seem to exist...so maybe it failed and I just didn't  
notice.  I simply assumed it wasn't part of kdebase-startkde.

How do you define "refused"? Did it error out and drop you back to a prompt? 
If so, what were the last 20-30 lines of output before make stated there was 
an error?

"refused to finish compiling"

Yes.

I didn't want to bury the message under a long listing, but since you ask,
here is the whole thing from the end of the configure step
(this is for Ksplashml, but it's the same for each of the  4  packages):

Good - your configure finished. Start make now

Then it gives the shell prompt.

The problem seems to arise from  /usr/kde/3.5/bin/meinproc ,
which is a binary installed by Kdelibs.  Using Gvim, I've looked inside it
& there are some lines which may throw light on what is going wrong
(I've collapsed multiple instances of ^@):

The error message from the Kicker ebuild refers to 'meinproc'
& a failure to find an index file, which the above says it can't create.

Does this strike any chords with anyone ?

I'll submit a bug report later today,
but it's much better also to have the solution included as well (smile) !

Just a shot in the dark. Did you enable kdeenablefinal use flag AFTER you 
compiled kdelibs?

No, but I just tried it with Khelpcenter & it made no difference.
The problem seems to be in Kdelibs, as my most recent message outlined.

Can you give output of "emerge -pv kdelibs && emerge -pv kdebase-startkde" ?

There is in fact another bug 105297 which has a different subject,
so it's not obvious to find & many other users have fallen into the trap.
The solution is to upgrade Libxslt to 1.1.15 .
I've suggested that this should be added to deps for Kicker etc.

And a final word: I've finished installing the many parts of KDE 3.5
-- the ones I want : it took  3 h 57 m  -- & it seems to be working well
after a couple of bits of tuning & shows a little extra polish over 3.4.1 .

Thanks as always to the devs involved.
