Package: vlc Version: 0.8.6-svn20061001.debian-2 Severity: serious Justification: no longer builds from source
In my computer, the latest vlc source package fails to build unless libnotify is explicitly disabled in the debian/rules file by, for example, adding the line "--disable-notify" to the "vlc_confflags +=" section. However, I am not sure if the problem is due to the particular version of libnotify that I have installed. The build fails at the packaging stage (tail -n 10 of vlc.*build): # --BEGIN BUILD LOG EXTRACT-- BORKED=no; \ for file in $(find debian/vlc-nox/usr/lib/vlc -name '*.so'); do \ if ldd $file | grep -q libX11; then \ BORKED=yes; \ echo $file depends on libX11; \ fi; \ done; \ if test "$BORKED" = yes; then exit 1; fi debian/vlc-nox/usr/lib/vlc/misc/libnotify_plugin.so depends on libX11 make: *** [install] Error 1 # --END BUILD LOG EXTRACT-- -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.17.6-k7r1-custom Locale: LANG=en_NZ.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_NZ.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages vlc depends on: ii libaa1 1.4p5-30 ascii art library ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-4 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcaca0 0.99.beta4-1 colour ASCII art library ii libcdio6 0.76-1 library to read and control CD-ROM ii libcucul0 0.99.beta4-1 low-level Unicode character drawin ii libfreetype6 2.2.1-5 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libfribidi0 0.10.7-4 Free Implementation of the Unicode ii libgcc1 1:4.1.1-13 GCC support library ii libgl1-mesa-g 6.5.1-0.1 A free implementation of the OpenG ii libglu1-mesa 6.5.1-0.1 The OpenGL utility library (GLU) ii libice6 1:1.0.1-2 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libiso9660-4 0.76-1 library to work with ISO9660 files ii libjpeg62 6b-13 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii libpng12-0 1.2.8rel-5.2 PNG library - runtime ii libsdl-image1 1.2.5-2 image loading library for Simple D ii libsdl1.2debi 1.2.11-3 Simple DirectMedia Layer ii libsm6 1:1.0.1-3 X11 Session Management library ii libstdc++6 4.1.1-13 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libtar 1.2.11-4 C library for manipulating tar arc ii libtiff4 3.8.2-6 Tag Image File Format (TIFF) libra ii libvcdinfo0 0.7.23-3 library to extract information fro ii libvlc0 0.8.6-svn20061001.debian-2 multimedia player and streamer lib ii libwxbase2.6- 2.6.3.2.1.5 wxBase library (runtime) - non-GUI ii libwxgtk2.6-0 2.6.3.2.1.5 wxWidgets Cross-platform C++ GUI t ii libx11-6 2:1.0.0-9 X11 client-side library ii libxext6 1:1.0.1-2 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxinerama1 1:1.0.1-4.1 X11 Xinerama extension library ii libxosd2 2.2.14-1.3 X On-Screen Display library - runt ii libxv1 1:1.0.2-1 X11 Video extension library ii libxxf86vm1 1:1.0.1-2 X11 XFree86 video mode extension l ii ttf-dejavu 2.10-1 Vera font family derivate with add ii vlc-nox 0.8.6-svn20061001.debian-2 multimedia player and streamer (wi ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-13 compression library - runtime Versions of packages vlc recommends: pn videolan-doc <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
