[SOLVED] Pidgin will not compile regardless of version

pusrob · 04-06-2015, 09:23 AM

Hi.

I'm trying to remerge pidgin with an additional use flag, but the compilation process never finishes regardless which version I'm trying to compile (stable or ~amd64). It gives me the following error message:

Code:

* dbus is enabled, no way to disable linkage with python => python is enabled
 * ERROR: net-im/pidgin-2.10.11::gentoo failed (compile phase):
 *   emake failed

Well, I really have no idea what to do from this point, as google doesn't give much useful results for this error. Should I reinstall python maybe? Or what? The end of the build.log file is as follows (if it helps):

Code:

Thanks in advance.

EDIT: disabling the extra flag does not help (which was sasl), still getting the same error.

EDIT2: remerging python did not help either...

EDIT3: It seems I've got missing python header files. Which package provides the python headers?

EDIT4: using the "eselect python set 1" command didn't work either. I also deleted the whole folder of pidgin from /tmp/portage, but had no effect.

EDIT5: I think (maybe) the comiler looks for python.h in /usr/bin/include/python2.7 but it does not exist there.

EDIT6: "python-updater" didn't think I need to reinstall anything.

Did you install dev-python/setuptools? I know I've read before this has solved for this issue.

pusrob · 04-12-2015, 07:28 AM

All right, I'm entirely sure now, that some of my python packages are broken. I tried to reinstall dev-python/setuptools but it won't install either. The /usr/bin/include/python3.3/pyconfig.h file is also missing.

Is there a way to remerge all python related packages?
Also, it would be heplful if someone could tell me which package installs pyconfig.h and python.h (and probably some other) header files.

Thanks.

EDIT: I opened up a new thread, as the problem is not pidgin related and is far more general (as it affects several packages). The discussion should continue in that new thread. Thanks.
