Magic error installing XFCE4

Post by xostia »

Hi:

I installed a new Pro 4.1 version but without de X.

Now, I tried to install the XFCE4 answering Yes to the Magic question but when it arrives to the gtk installation it shows:

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

!!! ERROR: x11-libs/gtk+-2.8.19 failed.
Call stack:
ebuild.sh, line 1555: Called dyn_setup
ebuild.sh, line 668: Called pkg_setup
gtk+-2.8.19.ebuild, line 57: Called die

!!! cairo needs the X flag set
!!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call stack if relevant.


!! Emerge failed.

!! gdm patch failed.
!! Check your network settings and try again.

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

I tried to emerge again the cairo using the: USE="-X" emerge ... for the cairo and launched again Magic but it shows allways the same error.

Can you help me?

Thanks

Edit /etc/make.conf and look for the "USE=" line. Add "X" to it (without the quotes). Then run "emerge cairo", finally re-run magic.

Hope this helps.

Hi:

I edited my make.conf but the USE line is like this:

USE="-X -sdl gtk -gnome kde mmx alsa aalib dvd gpm mpeg oggvorbis perl png qt quicktime samba sse truetype usb xmms"

the -X is there! any other idea?

Thanks

No, "-X" means "DO NOT compile with X compatibility". You need just "X".

Hi:

Sorry... I am stupid!! I corrected the USE line and now, re-emerging the cairo
there are errors:

...

Ack, nasty error. Try searching bugs.gentoo.org or forums.gentoo.org.

All working now

Hi:

I re-emerged the dependent packages and now all is working... I looked for something in the bugs forum but... nothing.

Anyway... all works.

Thanks for your help.
