 Posted: Wed Feb 07, 2007 11:52 pm Post subject: my first gentoo install - emerge x11-terms/eterm fails [slvd |
 |
|
I installed gentoo on my desktop following the gentoo x86 handbook.
I am using genkernel linux-2.6.19-gentoo-r5
After getting through the entire Installing Genoo portion of the handbook with no problem, I started on xorg...
I followed the The X Server Configuration HOWTO and the Gentoo Linux nVidia Guide
I got my x server working enough to be able to run the x server with my test xorg.conf file and get the glx direct rendering to work and the glxgears to work nicely. I haven't bothered with the specifics of my graphics card or monitor yet..
I then started the fluxbox install, which is where i am currently stuck. I am following the The Fluxbox Configuration HOWTO and i have problems right off the bat.
it says to run "emerge fluxbox xlockmore x11-terms/eterm"
fluxbox and xlockmore installed fine, but x11-terms/eterm did not. i resynched my tree to no avail. Here's my make.conf:
| Code: | CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu"
CFLAGS="-march=athlon-xp -O2 -pipe"
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
MAKEOPTS="-j2"
GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://www.gtlib.gatech.edu/pub/gentoo ftp://ftp.gtlib.gatech.edu/pub/gentoo "
INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse"
VIDEO_CARDS="nvidia"
USE="nvidia -gnome -kde"
|
Here is the error I get during compliation of eterm:
| Code: | make[2]: *** [Eterm] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/eterm-0.9.3-r4/work/Eterm-0.9.3/src'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/eterm-0.9.3-r4/work/Eterm-0.9.3'
make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2
!!! ERROR: x11-terms/eterm-0.9.3-r4 failed.
Call stack:
ebuild.sh, line 1546: Called dyn_compile
ebuild.sh, line 937: Called src_compile
eterm-0.9.3-r4.ebuild, line 51: Called die
!!! make failed
!!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call stack if relevant.
|
The entire output of the attempt to "emerge x11-terms/eterm" is here as it is too big to post.
Please any help would be greatly appreciated. This is my first gentoo experience and I'm a little confused at this point.

Eterm depends on imlib2. I'm surprised portage didn't ask to emerge it as well. Try the emerge again with --deep and it should pull in imlib2. If not, then you'll probably need to emerge it separately: | Code: | | # emerge -1uDvaN media-libs/imlib2 |
Allow me to take this opportunity though to point out that your USE flags are pretty sparse. If that's what you're aiming for (especially if this is a mostly headless server) then, of course, Gentoo is yours to do with as you like. However, most people find they enjoy a more robust collection of USE flags. There's a good section on the Gentoo-portage page that lists USE flags and which packages they effect.
I'm curious to know which profile you're using too. If you're going to use this machine for a desktop, I'd suggest switching to the default-linux/x86/2006.1/desktop profile or whichever desktop profile is appropriate for your architecture. Your emerge --info will tell you which you currently have enabled.
When you do emerges of major packages it is always a good idea to use the --pretend option first to see which use flags are available, which are turned on, and which you might want to adjust. Using the --ask option lets you see what will get done and allow you to nix it in case it's not what you want.
HTH,

eek! I'm not sure which of these is the "profile" you mention..
Regarding your USE flag advice -- I admit i have no idea what I'm doing...at all. From the above output, however, I would think that my USE flags are rather huge!
The entire USE flag thing is a little foreign to me. I really haven't decided what I am and am not going to use yet, as I've never really used linux as a desktop environment, and the fact that I have no idea what most of those USE options are doesn't help, either.
How would you suggest I alter my USE flags?
Anyway..I am currently running your suggested command of emerge -1uDvaN media-libs/imlib2 as the --deep option make no apparent difference. I'll let you know how that goes.. |

bad news. After emerging imlib2 I get the same failure emerging eterm:
| Code: | !!! ERROR: x11-terms/eterm-0.9.3-r4 failed.
Call stack:
ebuild.sh, line 1546: Called dyn_compile
ebuild.sh, line 937: Called src_compile
eterm-0.9.3-r4.ebuild, line 51: Called die
!!! make failed
!!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call stack if relevant. |
Any thoughts?
Maybe the actual eterm eterm-0.9.3-r4 source is broken?
Will someone else try emerging eterm to see if they get the same result? |

Hey I got it to work. All I did was change my profile from the default of /usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/x86/2006.1/ to the desktop subprofile /usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/x86/2006.1/desktop
I have no idea why this fixed it. |

The profiles contain a list of masked packages and USE flags. Switching to the desktop one enabled some which apparently were needed. The desktop profile is probably the best choice for a new arrival to Gentoo. As you become more familiar with how things work in Gentoo, then you'll want to experiment. And don't be afraid to add new USE flags as you see fit.
If you do a new emerge --info, you'll note that you have more USE flags and at the very top it will say default-linux/x86/2006.1/desktop instead of default-linux/x86/2006.1. That shows the new profile. Everything else in that emerge --info looks fine. You're off to a good start.
Let us know if you have any other questions.
