mtpfs fails to install

[gav989]

I'm trying to install mtpfs (with the hope of being able to add files to my creative zen v plus)

so far i've added the akoya overlay using

Code: Select all

layman -a akoya

before it would let me do that i had to run

Code: Select all

emerge dev-util/mercurial

(not sure what that is but it let me add the overlay so i'm happy)

I then ran

Code: Select all

emerge mtpfs

which failed and gave me a log file containing the following:

does anyone know how to solve this?

[Fitzcarraldo]

Don't know, but from the error log you posted it looks like there could be an incompatibility with libmtp. Which version of libmtp have you got installed?

Also, there's an mtpfs ebuild dated 11 Sept. 2009 in Gentoo Bugzilla Bug Report No. 259079, so you could try that ebuild instead, in a local overlay (see SL Wiki and various SL Forums threadfs for how to install packages in local overlays).

[gav989]

currently have libmtp 1.0.1

i'll have a look at that ebuild, thanks for the help

[gav989]

you explained here
how to go about using local overlays; how did you know which directories to make?

example:

Code: Select all

2. Create the directory (well, directories, to be precise) /usr/local/portage/app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-bjdeps/

3. Create the directory (well, directories, to be precise) /usr/local/portage/net-print/cnijfilter/

i can't work out from the bugzilla page you linked me to where i would need to put the new ebuild


EDIT: i worked it out, for those reading - the mtpfs-0.9.ebuild file needs to go in /usr/local/portage/sys-fs/mtpfs/

[Thev00d00]

it should be

Code: Select all

${CATEGORY}/${PN}/${PVR}.ebuild


or in human:

Code: Select all

category/packagename/packagename-version.ebuild
