Avahi from slackbuilds fails with gtk/gtk.h error

aherrys · 05-24-2015, 08:33 AM

Hi All,

I am trying to create avahi slackbuild package on Slackware 14.1 (avah-0.6.31), but I got the following error when the ./avahi-SlackBuild script is running.

make[2]: Entering directory `/tmp/SBo/avahi-0.6.31/avahi-discover-standalone'
CC avahi_discover_standalone-main.o
main.c:31:21: fatal error: gtk/gtk.h: No such file or directory
#include <gtk/gtk.h>

I have installed packages:
gtk+-1.2.10-i486-5
gtk+2-2.24.20-i486-1
gtk+3-3.8.2-i486-2

and they are all have gtk.h file. However the gtk.h files and gtk directory are all located under
/usr/include/gtk-1.2,
/usr/include/gtk-2.0,
and
/usr/include/gtk-3.0

No such thing as /usr/include/gtk/gtk.h

I look at the main.c of the avahi-discover-standalone directory and the #include definition is <gtk/gtk.h>
I can probably modify this to <gtk-1.2/gtk/gtk.h> or something similar, however how do I know which gtk.h header to use (1.2,2.0 or 3.0) ?

The configure statement of avahi.SalckBuild is:

./configure \
--prefix=/usr \
--libdir=/usr/lib${LIBDIRSUFFIX} \
--sysconfdir=/etc \
--localstatedir=/var \
--mandir=/usr/man \
--docdir=/usr/doc/$PRGNAM-$VERSION \
--enable-tests \
--disable-static \
--disable-monodoc \
--disable-autoipd \
--enable-python-dbus \
--enable-pygtk\
--enable-glib \
--enable-dbus \
--enable-python \
--enable-gtk \
--enable-gtk3 \
--enable-qt4 \
--disable-qt3 \
--enable-core-docs \
--enable-compat-howl \
--enable-compat-libdns_sd \
--with-dbus-sys=/etc/dbus-1/system.d \
--with-avahi-user=avahi \
--with-avahi-group=avahi \
--with-avahi-priv-access-group=netdev \
--with-distro=slackware \
--program-prefix= \
--program-suffix= \
--build=$ARCH-slackware-linux \
$MONO

What course of action I should take to resolve this ?

Thanks in advanced for any suggestion and help.

Seems to me the configure script is detecting gtk wrong. It should be using:

PHP Code:



gtk-config --cflags

to find includes. Well, assuming gtk-config returns something sane. On my system it returns:

PHP Code:



-I/usr/include/gtk-1.2 -I/usr/include/glib-1.2 -I/usr/lib/glib/include

Hum.. I just tried to build it on my system, and it compiled fine. Here are a few things to check:

near the end of the configure script it'll dump out a status. Mine looks like:

PHP Code:



---{ avahi 0.6.31 }---

    prefix:                                    /usr
    sysconfdir:                                /etc
    localstatedir:                             /var

    Enable GTK 3.0:                            yes
    Enable D-Bus:                              yes
    With XML:                                  expat
    Enable GDBM:                               yes
    Enable DBM:                                no
    Enable libdaemon:                          yes
    Enable Python:                             yes

    Enable python-dbus:                        yes
    Enable QT3:                                no
    Enable QT4:                                yes
    Enable Mono:                               no
    Enable Monodoc:                            no
    Distribution/OS:                           slackware

You'll have to Ctrl-C it or it'll scroll on by and you'll never see it again.

Another thing you can check is the config.log in the /tmp/SBo/avahi-0.6.31/ directory.

Its huge, be ready. What I'd do is go to the very end, then search up until I see something to do with an error in gtk. There will be errors in there but the script will correct for them, its expected to see some errors. (Things like when it searched for Mono for example)

it compile here with this fedora patch:

And the result of gtk-config --cflags is:

PHP Code:



bash-4.2# gtk-config --cflags 
-I/usr/include/gtk-1.2 -I/usr/include/glib-1.2 -I/usr/lib/glib/include

So looks like my machine has the same setup as yours. Should I change the main.c to use <gtk-1.2/gtk/gtk.h> instead ?

Thanks

Searching on config.log I found this rather suspicious lines, eventhough not outright error:

PHP Code:



pkg_cv_GTK20_CFLAGS=
pkg_cv_GTK20_LIBS='-lgtk-x11-2.0 -lgdk-x11-2.0 -latk-1.0 -lgio-2.0 -lpangoft2-1.0 -lpangocairo-1.0 -lgdk_pixbuf-2.0 -lcairo -lpango-1.0 -lfreetype -lfontconfig -lgobject-2.0 -lglib-2.0  '
pkg_cv_GTK30_CFLAGS=
pkg_cv_GTK30_LIBS='-lgtk-3 -lgdk-3 -latk-1.0 -lgio-2.0 -lpangocairo-1.0 -lgdk_pixbuf-2.0 -lcairo-gobject -lpango-1.0 -lcairo -lgobject-2.0 -lglib-2.0  '
GTK20_CFLAGS=''
GTK20_LIBS='-lgtk-x11-2.0 -lgdk-x11-2.0 -latk-1.0 -lgio-2.0 -lpangoft2-1.0 -lpangocairo-1.0 -lgdk_pixbuf-2.0 -lcairo -lpango-1.0 -lfreetype -lfontconfig -lgobject-2.0 -lglib-2.0  '
GTK30_CFLAGS=''
GTK30_LIBS='-lgtk-3 -lgdk-3 -latk-1.0 -lgio-2.0 -lpangocairo-1.0 -lgdk_pixbuf-2.0 -lcairo-gobject -lpango-1.0 -lcairo -lgobject-2.0 -lglib-2.0  '

Should not be that GTK20_CFLAGS ='-I/usr/include/gtk-1.2 -I/usr/include/glib-1.2 -I/usr/lib/glib/include' instead of just empty ?

But how do I fix that ?

One question I have, is the main.c on under 'avahi-discover-standalone' directory is hardcoded or is it created on the fly by configure process ?
What your #include looks like ?

Thanks

sorry aherrys, looking at an (a few days) older post from you, it seems to me that you are trying to do a minimal install and if building fails it can be because you are missing something: consider that avahi from SBo (as any other script from there) has been tested on a full installation of slackware stable and any other platform is just unsupported (as debugging individual problems can become extremely painful).
that said, good luck!

P.S. the best compromise I can suggest is to create a full install in a virtual machine, build what you need there and move the packages on your minimal one.
obviously, you can also use the full install in the virtual machine to be able to do the tests you are asking above and so be able to debug stuff yourself...

[snip]

In a minimal install environment, pkg-config can be quite useful because it will fail and describe what is missing if some dependency if not installed. Try running 'pkg-config --cflags-only-I gtk+-2.0'

Chris,

It works !

thank you a million.. learns a lot of stuff in the last few days..
