|
|
Hi all.
I wasn't sure where to place this thread, since the thread "biglybt as replacement for vuze/azureus" (https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1160907-start-0-postdays-0-postorder-asc-highlight-.html) is here, I thought perhaps this was the correct place.
Yes, I know that vuze/azureus has been retired from portage as there are no more upstream updates.
Still, vuze/azureus served me well, and I wish to continue to use it, even if the version will never moves beyond the last one, 5.7.6.0.
I still have that version's files, vuze-coreplugins-5.7.6.0 and vuze-5.7.6.0, their ebuilds, Manifests support files, etc.
I was considering creating a local private report based on these files, unless there's an easier way to install from them.
What is the correct / best way to proceed? |

Yes, use a local ebuild repository so that Portage can manage the package. _________________

This was my thinking as well.
I was following along the information here: Handbook:AMD64/Portage/CustomTree
(https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Handbook:AMD64/Portage/CustomTree#Creating_a_custom_ebuild_repository)
Setup the /etc/portage/repos.conf/eselect-repo.conf file:
[localrepo]
location = /var/db/repos/localrepo
/var/db/repos/localrepo/net-p2p/vuze containing the files, but emerge doesn't find it, and is still looking for it in the non-local gentoo repo.
It's like, hmm. I'm missing something.
Would anyone happen to know a reference for setting up a local repo that I could read up on more? Thanks in advance!
@mods: seems this thread might be better grouped in with related portage and local repo config threads. |

Did you run pkgdev manifest or ebuild <file> manifest? |

No, as there was not calling for either to be run in the documentation which I was reading.
However, now having run them, there's an error result.
while in
Code: |
/var/db/repos/localrepo#>pkgdev manifest

|
while in
Code: | /var/db/repos/localrepo/net-p2p/vuze#>ebuild vuze-5.7.6.0.ebuild manifest |
generates the following error output.

Taking the hint from the error message, here is the output from running emerge --info '=net-p2p/vuze-5.7.6.0::localrepo':

The ebuild you retrieved uses an eclass that no longer exists. You will need to recover that eclass, or patch the ebuild not to use it. |

Thanks for your patience and responses. I very much appreciate them.
So OK.
I've located an eutils.eclass file. It's from a system where I was trying to migrate from the version 17 profile to the most current profile, v23. This system is scheduled to be scratched when I complete the build which I'm working on, which includes getting vuze installed.
The target version 23 profile system, where I want to install vuse, has all its eclass files in:
/usr/portage/gentoo/eclass
In the /usr/portage/ directory it also has brave-overlay and dilfridge directories, so I'm thinking that I'd need to add a localrepo directory, with that add an eclass subdir, to which to copy the missing eclass files.
Do this sound / appear to be correct?
Also, is there a location which portage searches under the /var/db/repos/localrepo where these eclass files can reside? I'm thinking in the future, should I chose to remove the localrepo, that these eclass files wouldn't be needed, and could be removed along with the other localrepo specific files.
Again, thanks for your patience and responses. I very much appreciate them. |

As I remember how this works, each repository can have its own eclass directory at its top level, so you would want /var/db/repos/localrepo/eclass/eutils.eclass and /var/db/repos/localrepo/net-p2p/vuze/vuze-5.7.6.0.ebuild. This nicely keeps the files somewhat related, so if you later remove /var/db/repos/localrepo, both vuze and the eclass are deleted. |

Hey, that's good info.
OK, so I copied the desktop.eclass, eutils.eclass, java-ant-2.eclass, java-pkg-2.eclass, xdg-utils.eclass from my source to /var/db/repos/localrepo/eclass and re-executed the search:
emerge -s net-p2p/vuze
resulting in the following error message:
Code: |
* ERROR: net-p2p/vuze-5.7.6.0::localrepo failed (depend phase):
* eutils: EAPI 7 not supported
*
* Call stack:

* eutils.eclass, line 19: Called die
* The specific snippet of code:
* *) die "${ECLASS}: EAPI ${EAPI:-0} not supported" ;; |
I would add that the file: /var/db/repos/localrepo/profiles/eapi contains:
8
I changed this to 7 and tried again, but it didn't change the error message.
Does this mean that I need to go through the eclass files and / or the ebuild files and remove the demand for EAPI 7? |

As I read the gentoo.git history, eutils.eclass once supported EAPI 7, but that was removed before the eclass itself was deleted. You can use an older version of eutils.eclass, or modify vuze not to use eutils.eclass. I think eutils.eclass was deprecated and removed because newer EAPI versions offer equivalent functionality (though not necessarily under the same names). |

Hi all, I've been plugging and poking away at this over the past weeks, but I think I'm stuck.
What I've figured out so far:
There are 3 packages in all that I've identified to emerge for running vuze.
Code: | =net-p2p/vuze-coreplugins-5.7.6.0
=net-p2p/vuze-5.7.6.0.ebuild
=dev-java/swt-3.8.2-r3 |
=net-p2p/vuze-coreplugins-5.7.6.0
This ebuild didn't require any changes. It's pretty minimal and only downloads the vuze-coreplugins .Zip file.
This, of courese depends on =net-p2p/vuze-coreplugins-5.7.6.0
The changes I've made to this ebuild file are as follows:
1). Since eutils is no longer in the gentoo eclasses, change the inherit line to:
Code: | inherit java-pkg-2 java-ant-2 xdg-utils desktop edos2unix |
2). There some packages which were decalred as being dependant on which weren't found in the portage tree, so changed:
Code: |
CDEPEND="
dev-java/log4j:0
dev-java/swt:3.8[cairo]
dev-java/json-simple:0
dev-java/commons-lang:2.1"
| to:
Code: |
CDEPEND="
dev-java/commons-cli:1
dev-java/json-simple
dev-java/commons-lang"
|
It's at this point where the emerge complained about
Code: | !!! ERROR: Package swt-3.8 was not found! |
So started working on adapting the ebuild that specific version of swt.
3). Again, removed eutils, so changed

4). Some IUSE flags appear to be missing, so changed:
Code: | IUSE="cairo opengl" | to:
Code: | IUSE="cairo opengl elibc_FreeBSD x86-fbsd" |
4). In the ebuild file there's a use of:
Code: | QA_SONAME="usr/$(get_libdir)/libswt-.*.so" |
The get_libdir function can't be used, it complains about being 'top level' IIR, so changed that line to:
Code: | QA_SONAME="/usr/lib64/libswt-.*.so" |
Making sure to update the digest, as we've edited the ebuild file, we get this error message:
Code: | ebuild swt-3.8.2-r3.ebuild digest
Error(s) in metadata for 'dev-java/swt-3.8.2-r3':
SRC_URI: USE flag 'x86-fbsd' referenced in conditional 'x86-fbsd?' is not in IUSE |
Hmm. Not sure what to make of this error message, as x86-fbsd is included in the IUSE var.
So, tried to emerge =dev-java/swt-3.8.2-r3 anyway.
Code: | x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -shared -fPIC -o libswt-glx-gtk-3836.so swt.o glx.o glx_structs.o glx_stats.o -lGL -lGLU -lm
* Building JNI libraries
* Disabling all optional ANT_TASKS
Buildfile: build.xml does not exist!
Build failed
* ERROR: dev-java/swt-3.8.2-r3::localrepo failed (compile phase): |
Looking around, I believe that the build.xml file is something that should be included in the source files for the swt package.
It's here where I'm stuck, and am not sure what to do from here. |

Unfortunately, that starts to stray into something Java-ecosystem-specific. You can try asking in #gentoo-java on IRC and see if anyone can help.
By the way, I'm sort of curious as to if you've used some ancient versions (far older than needed or something). For exmaple, swt-3.8.2-r4 in the 3.7 slot is still in tree. Why not use that? I thought Vuze got removed not that long ago, and FreeBSD support was removed far longer back. |

Hi guys. Hey, thanks for responding. Yes, it is Java-ecosystem specific, and, yes, swt-3.8.2-r3 doesn't build because of the error I posted, however, I checked further into the older gentoo system on which I do have vuze running, and it does have swt-3.8.2-r4 installed and running, and when I tried to build that version it worked just fine, didn't even have to change the ebuild file, so I'm going with that version.
Now that swt is built and installed, on to vuze. Got these error messages:
Code: | >>> Compiling source in /var/tmp/portage/net-p2p/vuze-5.7.6.0/work/vuze-5.7.6.0 ...
* Disabling all optional ANT_TASKS
!!! ERROR: Package json-simple was not found!
* ERROR: net-p2p/vuze-5.7.6.0::localrepo failed (compile phase):
* java-config --classpath=swt-3.8,json-simple,log4j,commons-cli-1 failed |
I'll have to dig into these a bit more, but I notice that:
Code: | eix -s json-simple
[I] dev-java/json-simple
Available versions: (2.3) 2.3.1^t
{doc source test}
Installed versions: 2.3.1(2.3)^t(15:32:07 06/12/24)(-doc -source -test)
Homepage: https://www.json.org
Description: Java 7+ toolkit to quickly develop RFC 4627 JSON compatible applications |
so it must be in how that package is detecting whether json-simple is installed or not. I'll report back my findings when I have collected them.
So a bump forward, and a new challenge to figure out. Progress. Slow and steady. |

It is true, that I haven't tried biglybt in a long time. I installed that and works as expected (don't think that was the case last time - glad to see things change!), this the shortest path to what's required.
Other than removing the localrepo which I've setup for this purpose, easy to clean up. ![Smile :)](images/smiles/icon_smile.gif) |

Implementing a local repository to use removed pkg
So, in conclusion, yes, it can be done, but it's probably not easy, and request more knowledge about how portage and the gentoo build system works than I have.
Many thanks to those who lent assistance in this thread. |

Sure. But not so much a resolution as it would be a conclusion. |
