[SOLVED] Missing zipconf.h in Slackware-current

orbea · 12-02-2017, 11:13 AM

I was trying to build the latest git changes of the multimedia program deadbeef and ran into this issue.

Code:

In file included from vfs_zip.c:25:0:
/usr/include/zip.h:59:10: fatal error: zipconf.h: No such file or directory
#include <zipconf.h>
         ^~~~~~~~~~~

So I found out that zip.h is part of libzip and that in 14.2 it also had zipconf.h, but now the zipconf.h header no longer seems to exist in current?

Instead I have this problem.

Code:

$ file /usr/include/zipconf.h 
/usr/include/zipconf.h: broken symbolic link to ../lib64/libzip/include/zipconf.h

So what happened to zipconf.h? Is this just me?

As you already know I have the same issue as well on current.

for what I have understood, with this version should be safe to remove this block from the SlackBuild (after rebuilding the package you should have /usr/include/zipconf.h)

Code:

# While I perhaps see the motive for putting platform-specific include files
# in a place where they won't collide, the fact is that this breaks anything
# currently using libzip.  Adding a link to the standard include directory
# mostly fixes this, but it is still not optimal.  It's likely to cause
# problems on multilib systems, for example (but like that whole thing isn't
# an even uglier hack).
( cd $PKG/usr/include ; ln -sf ../lib${LIBDIRSUFFIX}/libzip/include/zipconf.h . )

Yep, that works here. Thanks!

I think this is solved and I will mark it as so when a fix can be applied to the main Slackware tree.

yes that works:
before there was no
/lib${LIBDIRSUFFIX}/libzip/ to link to,

after recompiling zipconf.h is no longer overwritten
