Anyone else getting this when trying to emerge pykde:

Code:
Generating the C++ source for the dcop module...
Creating the Makefile for the dcop module...

Generating the C++ source for the kdecore module...
sip: KLockFile::Ptr is undefined
Error: Unable to create the C++ code.


then it fails.

Upon further investigation.. it appears PyKDE is included in the ebuild 'kdebindings'. Pretend emerging this shows me that the latest version of kdebindings is -3.3.0, and it wants to download all my other KDE components from 3.3.1 to 3.3.0.

Can this package be updated for 3.3.1?

narf... same problem here!

buildin kdebindings from source doesn't work too, sip fails because of qt and qt-mt and i can't see a way to pass it the -l option...

a kdebindings-3.3.1 ebuild would be really nice

[edit]

a downgrade to sip 3.11.1, re-emerging PyQt linked against that and then compiling PyKDE from source did it ;)

Are we all pissed that our SlickBar quit working?

Mind running that solution by me again? Perhaps I don't belong in Gentoo land, but I have no idea what it means.

I found a recent posting on the PyKDE mailing list archives by maintainer Jim Bublitz, and his suggestion worked perfectly for me. Phew.

Quote:
The problem is most likely that you're compiling against KDE 3.3.1, which as I
noted in an earlier msg I haven't tested PyKDE against yet. Apparently
configure.py isn't treating KDE 3.3.1 as KDE 3.3.0 as it should.

The only thing I can suggest at the moment is to modify kdeversion.h
(in /usr/include/kde in your case) and change the version string to 3.3.0 and
the release number to 0. I haven't tried that, and it assumes KDE hasn't made
any changes going from 3.3.0 to 3.3.1 that will break PyKDE.

Version changes work sometimes, and don't work sometimes.

Jim


In our case, kdeversion.h is located in the /usr/kde/3.3/include directory. I made a backup copy of kdeversion.h before I followed his suggestion, and I restored the original file after pykde finished compiling.

I don't know about the above suggestions of downgrading sip and whatnot...I just ran 'emerge sync' and installed the latest version of sip and everything else, and the pykde compile worked fine.

Good luck, everyone!

success! This solution works. Just make sure you change your version number back again afterwards. Thanks!
