Re: [blfs-support] MesaLib-8.0.2

2012-04-23 Thread John Burrell


  
  make gets to 
  
  make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/x/mesalib/Mesa-8.0.2/src/glsl'
  make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/x/mesalib/Mesa-8.0.2/src/mesa'
  running /usr/bin/makedepend
  
  and hangs.
  
  If I use --with-gallium-drivers=i915,nouveau,r300,r600,svga,swrast
  
  make runs to the end.
 
 Do you have a log to see where it hangs?  It would be reasonable for someone 
 else to see if the problem can be duplicated.

I rebuilt from scratch (probably with a subtly different order) to the mesalib 
package and got exactly the same result. Nice to know we live in an ordered 
universe.

The end of the mesalib make log is shown above so it hangs while running 
/usr/bin/makedepend. I don't have any details of what it was actually doing 
when it either got into an infinite loop or stopped waiting for some input. I 
would need to debug the code to find that out and I'm not able to do that at 
the moment.

I've left the machine alone, i.e. without mesalib installed. Is there anything 
you want me to try or any info that I can supply to you that might help someone 
else duplicate this?

Thank you very much, Andy.

I agree that line above should be the last one, inasmuch as roxterm runs even 
in that machine, i.e., it seems to have been completely installed. What annoyed 
me was that I have scripted two more instructions after install, for icon and 
.desktop, and have to run them by hand. Also I like having the install logged 
by paco, but it could't be done in this case.

Found obvious trivial solution! Changed the script, removing the  at the 
EOL, so the error is displayed but does not stops it to complete.

My problem may be due to other rox* in that machine. I was trying to choose a 
file manager, so tried many: mc, thunar, pacmanfm and rox. When trying rox, I 
used used 0install, have many directories with that and with rox-all, etc. 
Tried moving out all old rox related, but problem persisted.

Finally, must say that I was suspicious about roxterm, and would stick to 
terminator, and start a discussion asking for it in the book.

However, both do essentially the same, with main difference being how to 
customize, so *I can live with roxterm*. The most important similarity is 
having tabs *and* drag and drop re-ordering of terminals, lxterminal lacks this.

The things I see terminator excels roxterm are simultaneous typing to 
arbitrary groups of terminals and the possibility to divide the terminal 
window with a grid of terminals:

Although very interesting, I never used those but grid, just for curiosity.

That sounds likely, I've never used 0install, I like to know what's
been installed and where, that's why the Rox-filer page in the book
puts almost everything into /usr/share/rox

I like to be able to drag a file into a terminal window but I don't
need anything more advanced than that. I've just stopped using roxterm
as it has a bug with gtk+-3.4: I can't scroll back with the scroll
wheel. I can scroll fine in other gtk+-3 app but not roxterm :/ So I've
gone back to using Xfce's terminal which uses gtk+-2 and the gtk+-2
version of vte, vte-0.28.2. Xfce's terminal has a few more dependencies
than Roxterm as it uses some Xfce things but it works fine.

Re: [blfs-support] Py2cairo or Pycairo required for PyGObject - Beyond Linux® From Scratch - Version 2012-04-21

 The Python Modules section of BLFS documentation lists Py2cairo-1.10.0

  No package 'pycairo' found

 However, if I compile
 http://cairographics.org/releases/pycairo-1.8.8.tar.gz, PyGObject
 compiles successfully without error.

 Pycairo appears to have been recently dropped in the documentation.  So,
 should Pycairo be listed as the requirement for PyGObject?  If not, what
 might I be doing wrong?
   I dropped pycairo (py2cairo is a later version of it, for Python2)
 because the dependencies built for me.  Now that I've found which
 machine I built them on, I can see that I used py2cairo-1.10.0 and
 pygobject-2.28.6 as in the book, and as you did.

   Looking at the log from pygobject-2.28.6, I see no references to
 PYCAIRO which is what the configure script apparently looks for.
 Strange.  In the pygobject2 configure command I only have
   --prefix=/usr --disable-introspection.

   No idea why it worked for me but not for you.

 ĸen
Perhaps introspection is the issue.  I applied 
pygobject2-2.28.6-introspection-1.patch and did not issue 
--disable-introspection.

Now, I am having a problem with roxterm and my eyes: can't increase font size 
with --zoom. Nothing changes, no matter the value used.

Now that things seem overcomebyevents, how inflexible would you be for my 
asking you to test terminator? It is an easy install:

http://launchpad.net/terminator/trunk/0.96/+download/terminator_0.96.tar.gz

./setup.py install \
--prefix=/usr \
--record=$LOGDIR/$PACKAGE-install-files-$DATE.log

last switch not obligatory.

I only have the comment in my script:

 # You need to install vte the python bindings for vte, gobject, gtk and 
 pango, if necessary, reinstall py-gtk, to run Terminator.

So, you are the same as spiky0011 in

https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-from-scratch-13/dependencies-python-vte-bindings-880796/

page I reached several times, and helped with dependencies?

One more thing to Andy: I think even before installing, it can be tested from 
the source directory.

[blfs-support] Firefox-12 and flash

2012-04-23 Thread Ian Macdonald
Just built Firefox-12 ( by the book with the addition of Andy's
cairo-1.10.2 patch to get it to compile ).

Has anyone been able to get the flash plugin to work? I have Shockwave
Flash v 11.2.202.233 installed
but it doesn't download any movies. Youtube/html5 works but the only
extension I tried ( no script ) crashed
firefox on startup.

Anyone had better luck?
