[gentoo-user] Error compiling totem-1.0.4 -- looking for suggestions on how to fix

[Ric de France]

Hi,

I recently did a:

$ emerge -DNuva world

which came back with:

<snip>
...
[ebuild     U ] media-video/totem-1.0.4 [1.0.2-r1] -a52 -debug +dvd
+flac +gnome -lirc +mad +mpeg +ogg -theora +vorbis +win32codecs +xine
+xv
...
</snip>

Thinking it was so good, so far... I went with the upgrade and got this:

<snip>
...
make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/totem-1.0.4/work/totem-1.0.4/src'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/totem-1.0.4/work/totem-1.0.4'
make: *** [all] Error 2

!!! ERROR: media-video/totem-1.0.4 failed.
!!! Function gnome2_src_compile, Line 48, Exitcode 2
!!! compile failure
!!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, NOT this status message.
</snip>

I've tried Google, and the forums, and the best I could find is this:

http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-374573-highlight-totem1+0+4.html

Should I just do as the forum post suggests, or can this be solved
(with totem 1.0.4 being compiled and installed via emerge)?

I've also tried setting down my compilation settings to:

CFLAGS="-O2"

but that does no good.

Any suggestions on what could be the problem? Any comments greatly appreciated.

Well, first of all, you should know it can work:

eix totem
* media-video/totem
     Available versions:  1.0.2-r1 1.0.4
     Installed:           1.0.4
     Homepage:            http://gnome.org/projects/totem/
     Description:         Media player for GNOME


Second of all, you have not provided enough of the error to hazard a
guess as to where the compile failed.

Usually some 20 or so lines before the [make] error is sufficient.

Have you tried b.g.o (bugs.gentoo.org)?

Was the error posted in the forums the same as yours?

Well, that's one possible solution eliminated, at least. But what are
your current CFLAGS, and what arch are you running on?

OK... well then, I'm doing something wrong...

Searched and found nothing that looks like what I'm getting... unless
I'm screwing up my search terms...

> Was the error posted in the forums the same as yours?

The error posted looks very similar... the posted error fails at the
same point mine fails at... so I'm having a round guess that what ails
me if ailing the guy who made the post...

Thanks for your look in on this...

It sort of describes some of the problem, as I can see the same error
a little higher on in the page.

What is the bug suggesting to do to fix it:
a) Wait for the fix to be sync'ed into portage?
b) Emerge "gst-plugins-flac"? 

I guess I need a little help in interpreting the text in the bug.

It's (b)

Or you could do
$ emerge --oneshot gst-plugins-flac (which wont record it in your world file)
and wait for the fix to be synced into portage. :)

Thanks for the suggestion here... I tried what you said, but to no success... 

Anything else you could suggest, or do I just track the bug and see
wait for when the fix gets implemented?

Btw. There is no rush on this... it's not like my system is
unusable... everything still works fine... it's just that this stops
the rest of the "world" from being updated... no biggie... but I am
seriously grateful for all the suggestions...

Yep... running 2.4 kernel, so I guess I'm using the 2.4 headers...
I'll read more into the bug and try to fix / patch myself...

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

Do you use 2.4 or 2.6 linux-headers?

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=68087

It seems that this problem exists only with 2.4 headers.

Re: [gentoo-user] Error compiling totem-1.0.4 -- looking for suggestions on how to fix [SOLVED]

[Ric de France]

Thanks for the help... read more into the bug and applied the fix, and
totem compiled as usual. Thanks to Alex, Holly and the Gentoo mailing
list...
