knetworkmanager will not compile [solved]

[Skippy]

Greetings. I'm running 64 bit version - have been using knetworkmanager for many moons. It now needs to be rebuilt as part of revdep-rebuild. However, it will not compile. Output below.

I checked bugs.gentoo.org and found 4 bugs for knetworkmanager, but they don't seem to apply to my situation.

Any ideas please?

On a related note: is there anything else that I can use which will do the same job as knetworkmanage? Give me a gui interface for selecting and connecting to a wireless network?

Thanks very much.

Likely this will not fix it but have a look or try installing say wpa_suplicant or searching for mac80211 or similar and install then try again as this is all encryption related.

Ps> amd64 and ~amd64 is this not causing some confusion for portage as surely ~amd64 would include stable as well as testing unstable so only need to have ~amd64 .

Any reason why you are not just using equo to do the work for you.

Code: Select all

equo update ; equo install equo spritz entropy layman portage ; layman -S ; equo conf update ; equo libtest ; equo deptest

" equo deptest " will do more or less the same as " revdep-rebuild -iv "
Make sure equo knows what gentoo is doing " equo database --gentoosync "

You should also be on the 4.* branch of equo " equo world --upgrade 4 " or "equo --upgrade 4 " just check for correct wording / options.

Hope this helps.

[Fitzcarraldo]

Yep, what WarraWarra said re ACCEPT_KEYWORDS. Also, Judging by your build log location, I assume you are not using Entropy at all? Anyway...

media-sound/vkeybd is a virtual MIDI keyboard for X. Do you use it? If not, uninstall it: emerge -C vkeybd

Also, do you use evolution-exchange (an Evolution module for connecting to Microsoft Exchange Server)? If not, uninstall that too: emerge -C evolution-exchange

What version of networkmanager have you got installed? Try downgrading it to networkmanager-0.6.4_p20070621 if you have a later version, then try merging knetworkmanager again.

The version of knetworkmanager that you are trying to merge builds OK on my laptop (also ~amd64) with the following packages installed:
linux-sabayon-2.6.29
networkmanager-0.6.4_p20070621
glibc-2.8_p20080602-r1
gcc-4.3.3-r2

(I see you have the 2.6.27 kernel installed. You might want to try upgrading your kernel to 2.6.29 at some point too -- see the SL Wiki article on using genkernel to upgrade a kernel.)

Regarding an alternative to networkmanager/knetworkmanager, wicd gets mentioned a lot in these forums. If you use the SL Forum Search facility you'll find several threads with details on how to install it and get it working. Personally I don't have any trouble at all with NetworkManager and KNetworkManager on two laptops running SL (and another one previously running PCLinuxOS 2007 and lately openSUSE 11.1), so I haven't tried wicd myself, but others seem to find it helps if they can't get NetworkManager working.

[Skippy]

Greetings and thanks to you both.

Regarding the keywords, granted that emerge --info says:
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64 ~amd64"

when I check make.conf it says:
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~amd64"

So where might the additional amd64 be coming from?

------------

I did just remove evolution-exchange as you are correct, I don't need that. Easy fix. The vkeybd I don't use, but intend to - maybe. But that is no big deal either way.

------------

regarding knetworkmanager, my installed version is knetworkmanager-0.2.2_p20080528, the same one which will not compile. I also tried installing versions 0.2.1_p20071228 and 0.2.1_pre20071119. they will not compile either.

could this have anything to do with avahi? I'm having a problem there as well:

emerge -av avahi

Or is this totally unrelated?

---------------

Finally, why am I using emerge & revdep-rebuild? Because I removed the Sabayon overlay. My attempts to upgrade my system resulted in one disaster after another until I did so. I've used Gentoo for years, so I know - at least to an intermediate level - how emerge and related things work. Obviously I'm not a Master.

Thanks much, Skippy

[Fitzcarraldo]

My advice would be to re-add the Sabayon Linux overlay, because the ebuilds for NetworkManager and KNetworkManager are different to the ones in the Portage repository, and you may actually have more luck:

You can see from the output of eix above that I have the version of KNetworkManager installed using the Sabayon Linux overlay ebuild version 0.2.2_p20080528. I have to say the Sabayon Linux overlay is normally very solid. You can re-add it as follows (which you probably know if you're a long-time Gentoo user):

Code: Select all

# emerge --sync

Also, which version of layman have you got installed? Here's what I have installed:

Code: Select all

and what are the contents of your layman.cfg file? The storage path was changed somewhere around version 1.2 (see layman -S does not detect linux-sabayon-2.6.26 [Solved]) and should now be as follows (also needs to match the source directory path that is in your /etc/make.conf):

Code: Select all

If your source path is different to that in the latest version of layman.cfg, if you change it then you need to re-run the sync, so I'd recommend repeating the syncing to make sure the correct directories are populated:

Code: Select all

# layman -d sabayon
# emerge --sync
# layman -a sabayon
# layman -S

I don't think avahi has anything to do with your problem. Anyway, for what it's worth the version installed on my laptop is:

As I said earlier, the versions of NetworkManager and KNetworkManager that are installed on my laptop work very well. No complaints at all.

[Thev00d00]

Knetworkmanager has been replaced by the plasmoid in newer versions and is no longer maintained afaik.

Knetworkmanager needs NM ~ 0.6.6 to complile really. or < 0.7
