  8. Windowmaker removed from Funtoo?

    in Portage Help

    Posted · Edited by cardinal
    Remove bold from square brackets.

     

    The name [windowmaker-local] in this file: 

    /etc/portage/repos.conf/windowmaker

    is different than the name windomaker-local in the profiles/repo_name and metadata/layout.conf in /home/overlays/windowmaker-local

    The reference name must be identical in all configuration files for the specific overlay.

    This issue is closed which would indicate it's resolved.

    [FL-11225] app-emulation/virtualbox-guest-additions-7.0.8 fails to emerge

    [FL-11225] is a sub-task of a larger still unresolved issue that is in Ready to Fix status.

    [FL-10669] virtualbox autogen has hit version 7.0 and the templates need maintenance.

     

     

  10. AttributeError: 'ElementTree' object has no attribute 'getiterator'

    The issue is python3.9, the bug report has the details:

    FL-10643 [next]: equery has problems getting the use flags from ebuilds

    A workaround would be to install dev-lang/python-3.7.16,then use eselect python list, and eselect python set the [  ] by  python3.7 so it becomes [1] 

    rj@funtoo-next ~ $ ego query v python
 dev-lang/python| slot|            repo
----------------+-----+----------------
     * 2.7.18-r1|     | python-kit/next
----------------+-----+----------------
        * 3.7.16|   /m| python-kit/next
----------------+-----+----------------
          3.8.16|     | python-kit/next
        * 3.9.16|     | python-kit/next
         3.10.11|     | python-kit/next
rj@funtoo-next ~ $ eselect python list
Available Python interpreters, in order of preference:
  [1]   python3.7
  [2]   python3.9
  [3]   python2.7 (fallback)

    Possible issues with 'git checkout 1.4-release'

    Windowmaker will build on 1.4-release by temporarily switching the desktop-kit to 1.3-release branch.

    This method only works if 1.3-release branch still exists on desktop-kit from an in-place 1.3 to 1.4 release upgrade.  

    # cd /var/git/meta-repo/kits/desktop-kit/
    # git checkout 1.3-release

    Follow directions in output for dubious owner error: 

    funtoo /var/git/meta-repo/kits/desktop-kit # git checkout 1.3-release
fatal: detected dubious ownership in repository at '/var/git/meta-repo/kits/desktop-kit'
To add an exception for this directory, call:

	git config --global --add safe.directory /var/git/meta-repo/kits/desktop-kit
funtoo /var/git/meta-repo/kits/desktop-kit # git config --global --add safe.directory /var/git/meta-repo/kits/desktop-kit
funtoo /var/git/meta-repo/kits/desktop-kit # git checkout 1.3-release
Switched to branch '1.3-release'

    Verify Windowmaker is available and emerge: 

    funtoo /var/git/meta-repo/kits/desktop-kit # ego query v windowmaker
 x11-wm/windowmaker| slot|                    repo
-------------------+-----+------------------------
             0.95.7|    0| desktop-kit/1.4-release
          0.95.8-r1|     | desktop-kit/1.4-release
               9999|     | desktop-kit/1.4-release

funtoo /var/git/meta-repo/kits/desktop-kit # emerge -av windowmaker
Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild  N     ] x11-wm/windowmaker-0.95.8-r1::desktop-kit  USE="gif jpeg nls png tiff webp xinerama xpm -imagemagick -modelock -xrandr" 3,410 KiB

Total: 1 package (1 new), Size of downloads: 3,410 KiB

Would you like to merge these packages? [Yes/No]

    After emerge completes: 

    funtoo /var/git/meta-repo/kits/desktop-kit # git checkout 1.4-release 
Switched to branch '1.4-release'

    If modified or un-tracked files prevent the checkout to 1.4-release the easiest solution is to delete desktop-kit.

    Running ego sync will download a clean replacement that only includes the 1.4-release branch.

    Attempting to emerge windowmaker on Next release would begin with importing x11-wm/windowmaker from 1.3-release desktop-kit into a local overlay. 

  14. emerge at-spi2-atk fails in the preparation phase

    in Installation Help

    Correct path. Add bug report URL. 

    * The specific snippet of code:
 *       cp -n "${FILESDIR}"/${PN}-2.20.0-tests-data/*.xml "${S}"/tests/data/ || die;

    In this case locate the ebuild, open in editor and insert a # in front of the offending snippet of code.

    Locate: 

    rj@funtoo-next ~ $ ego query v at-spi2-atk
 app-accessibility/at-spi2-atk| slot|                      repo
------------------------------+-----+--------------------------
                      * 2.34.2|    2| gnome-kit/next-3.36-prime
rj@funtoo-next ~ $ cd /var/git/meta-repo/kits/gnome-kit/app-accessibility/at-spi2-atk/

    Edit: 

    rj@funtoo-next /var/git/meta-repo/kits/gnome-kit/app-accessibility/at-spi2-atk $ sudo nano at-spi2-atk-2.34.2.ebuild 
src_prepare() {
        # Upstream forgot to put this in tarball, upstream #770615
   ---->#cp -n "${FILESDIR}"/${PN}-2.20.0-tests-data/*.xml "${S}"/tests/data/ || die

        gnome2_src_prepare
}

    Merge: 

    rj@funtoo-next /var/git/meta-repo/kits/gnome-kit/app-accessibility/at-spi2-atk $ sudo ebuild at-spi2-atk-2.34.2.ebuild merge

    Bug report:

    [gnome-kit] app-accessibility/at-spi2-atk-2.34.2 fails pkg_prepare

    Additional information.

    Note wiki/talk:

    https://www.funtoo.org/Talk:Install/Profiles

    Bugs.funtoo.org Improvement:

    Running nouveau requires deleting etc/modprobe.d/nouveau-blacklist.conf

    If you choose to go with proprietary driver mixin profile gfxcard-nvidia-legacy should support your GT-420 

    https://code.funtoo.org/bitbucket/projects/AUTO/repos/core-gl-kit/browse/profiles/funtoo/mix-ins/gfxcard-nvidia-legacy/package.mask

    https://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverResults.aspx/196213/en-us/

    You would have to manually blacklist nouveau again to try out nvidia-390

  18. What stage3 to use for Pentium 6200 (westmere)?

    in Installation Help

    Posted · Edited by cardinal

    The core2 march profile is the next available stage3 that is a generation down from nehalem that excludes SSE4.1, SSE4.2, and POPCNT.

    ‘core2’

    Intel Core 2 CPU with 64-bit extensions, MMX, SSE, SSE2, SSE3, SSSE3, CX16, SAHF and FXSR instruction set support.

    Reference: https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/x86-Options.html

    Verify MMX, SSE, SSE2, SSE3, SSSE3, CX16, SAHF and FXSR would be enabled by gcc if you were using native (gcc autodetection of options supported by CPU). 

    gcc -c -Q -march=native --help=target | grep enabled

    Reference: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/GCC_optimization

    If all are not enabled default to generic_64
