-current with 4.14.3 can't build kodi from ponce sbo repo

slackb0t · 12-08-2017, 10:24 AM

Ok.. I hate to ask this because I know it is probably an obvious answer. I tried and tried but can't figure it out. So here we go.

I am completely up to date with -current *including the testing kernel*

I have sbo set up to sync with ponce git repo for current.

However, when trying to install I get the following error

Code:

chmod: cannot operate on dangling symlink './tools/depends/target/ffmpeg/ffmpeg-3.1.9-Krypton-17.4.tar.gz'
patching file xbmc/filesystem/FTPParse.cpp
Reversed (or previously applied) patch detected!  Assume -R? [n] 
Apply anyway? [n] 
Skipping patch.
3 out of 3 hunks ignored -- saving rejects to file xbmc/filesystem/FTPParse.cpp.rej

kodi:
Would you like to continue processing the rest of the

package is a dependency of another package in the queue
then it may not make sense to continue.

(Y)es to continue, (N)o to abort, (R)etry the build?:

try using the script for 14.2 from SBo: does that work?
I suppose the patch I added in july isn't necessary anymore.

Thanks for the reply. I changed the repo to 14.2 and it still fails but much later in the process. This time complaining about -lva and -lva-x11

Code:

CPP     xbmc/platform/posix/main.o
AR      xbmc/platform/posix/posix.a
LD      kodi.bin
/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-slackware-linux/7.2.0/../../../../x86_64-slackware-linux/bin/ld: cannot find -lva-x11
/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-slackware-linux/7.2.0/../../../../x86_64-slackware-linux/bin/ld: cannot find -lva
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [Makefile:453: kodi.bin] Error 1

I re-installed libva 1.6.x and libva-intel-driver 1.6.x

This fixed kodi but obviously isn't what I want.... hmmm

I've just tried on a full and clean installation of slackware64-current and compilation went fine with the kodi script on SBo.

judging from the output that you got when linking the kodi binary I suppose you have still some dependency (mandatory or optional, or dependency of some dependency, and so on...) built against the old libva and that gives you that error when linking: you should rebuild whatever uses the old libva to use the new one.

Thanks. That is helpful. Is there an easy way to find out what packages are build using the old libva?

Going to do a little searching to see if there is a script to figure it out...

you can prepare a list running objdump on all the libraries and binaries that you got in your system, like

Code:

objdump -x /usr/lib64/libfoo.so | grep NEEDED

and then inspect it...

...but, if you prefer, there's also a much more user-friendly application for the task (instructions and a tutorial are available at the same link), courtesy of a4z.

I have sbbdep a try but there are so many deps for Kodi that I am not sure it narrowed things down too much. I think the quickest way to solve this might be.

1. slackpkg clean-system

followed by

2. deleting everything I installed from SBO (other than libreoffice most are related to kodi anyway)

3. Rebuild kodi again from the queue file will all deps.

However, since everything is working I might just leave it alone... having 2 versions of lva doesn't seem to be causing any trouble.
