Audacity ebuild wxGTK version problem [3.4mini x86_64]

[deavik]

Hello!
I was trying to emerge audacity, and it installed wxGTK-2.8 first. However when it got to emerging audacity it complained that wxgtk was not compiled with unicode support. But My USE flags in /etc/make.conf did include unicode. I also tried

USE="-unicode" emerge audacity
while wxgtk was still there and it complained that I should include gtk in my use flags. My problem is exactly the same as this other sabayon user: http://translate.google.com/translate?h ... n%26sa%3DG But I would like to keep wxgtk-2.8, when it seems like it's a small config problem.

Is this a problem with the ebuild?

I searched and found this http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-57 ... a4a5649762 on gentoo forums, but that says using the eclass file from the sabayon overlay fixed the problem over there...

EDIT: The eclass file is over here http://svn.sabayonlinux.org/filedetails ... 2.8.eclass (I am away from my computer now, so I can't compare to what my SL install has, but from the error messages it looks like that's the one).

Code: Select all

wx-config --list

it should say something like:

Code: Select all


    Default config is gtk2-unicode-release-2.8

  Default config will be used for output

  Alternate matches:
    gtk2-ansi-release-2.6
    gtk2-ansi-release-2.8
    gtk2-unicode-release-2.6


not if it doesn't say gkt2 or unicode then you need to recompile wxGTK with those flags.

Hey Eden,
I ran that and got

Code: Select all

# wx-config --list

    Default config is gtk2-unicode-release-2.8

  Default config will be used for output

  Alternate matches:
    gtk2-ansi-release-2.8


I just noticed that the problem is because Audacity ebuild looks for the 2.6 wxgtk libs:

Code: Select all

>>> Compiling source in /var/tmp/portage/media-sound/audacity-1.3.3/work/audacity-src-1.3.3-beta ...
!!! set-wxconfig: Error:  Can't find normal or debug version:
!!! set-wxconfig:         /usr/lib64/wx/config/gtk2-unicode-release-2.6 not found
!!! set-wxconfig:         /usr/lib64/wx/config/gtk2-unicode-debug-2.6 not found
!!! You need to emerge wxGTK with unicode in your USE


wxgtk was compiled with 2.6 compatibility, any tips?

Thanks

you can emerge multiple versions of wxGTK so just emerge 2.6

Code: Select all

emerge -va =x11-libs/wxGTK-2.6.4.0
