gst-plugins-(good and ugly) not building, but bad does

The error message that I am getting is

Quote:

/usr/lib/libgobject-2.0.so: could not read symbols: File in wrong format

. I am using Slackware64-13.0 (multi-lib), sbopkg 0.30.1 (13.0 repository). I had a look at the slackbuilds and and modified them to be the same as gst-plugins-bad but I still got the same error.

It is strange that it is not looking in /usr/lib64 for libgobject-2.0.so, but libgobject is in both.

Has anyone else seen this behaviour.

Try setting your PKG_CONFIG_PATH var to your 64-bit paths before you execute the configure script. For example

Code:

PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/lib64/pkgconfig:/usr/local/lib64/pkgconfig" ./configure --prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib64

See if that gets good and ugly to build.

i built 'em with a queue (the only way to pass options/export variables to slackbuilds that I know I can use with sbopkg)

Code:

gst-plugins-good | LDFLAGS="-L/usr/lib64 -L/lib64"

gst-plugins-bad | LDFLAGS="-L/usr/lib64 -L/lib64"

gst-plugins-ugly | LDFLAGS="-L/usr/lib64 -L/lib64"

save as /var/lib/sbopkg/queues/gst-plugins.sqf and

Code:

sbopkg -b gst-plugins.sqf

and accept queuefile options with Q

queues are great :D

Well, I'm not a Slackware user so I don't know the finer points of your package manager. The good and ugly configure scripts are looking for gobject.pc to get information regarding libgobject. The configure script is finding /usr/lib/pkgconfig/gobject.pc which is the one installed by your 32-bit glib. Obviously, they need to find /usr/lib64/pkgconfig/gobject.pc if you're building 64-bit good and ugly plugins. Therefore, you need to tell the configure script where to look. You do that with the PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable. Set it however your package manager requires it be set.

[EDIT]
Ooops, I didn't notice poncez was replying to the OP; thought he was the OP.

sbopkg lets you set build options (check the menu with the options README,..., Build). You can use the option

Code:

LDFLAGS='-L/usr/lib64 -L/lib64'

to compile the package, as poncez suggested.

Thanks poncez, that worked.
