Hi Matthias, thanks for your help. I have done a gensync gentoo-de and can now see the new version. However when I do an emerge vdrplugin-softdevice I get the old version trying to be applied. See output below "please try vdrplugin-softdevice-0.1.0-r1". I am very new to Gentoo - so sorry if this is a very dumb question, but how do I get it to apply the specific version. How does it work out which the new revision is (0.1.0-r1) so it knows to try to install that? Thanks again for your help. mmc root # emerge vdrplugin-softdevice Calculating dependencies ...done! >>> emerge (1 of 1) media-video/vdrplugin-softdevice-0.1.0 to / >>> md5 files ;-) ChangeLog >>> md5 files ;-) vdrplugin-softdevice-0.0.7_pre1-r1.ebuild >>> md5 files ;-) vdrplugin-softdevice-0.0.7_pre1.ebuild >>> md5 files ;-) vdrplugin-softdevice-0.0.7_pre2.ebuild >>> md5 files ;-) vdrplugin-softdevice-0.0.7_pre3.ebuild >>> md5 files ;-) vdrplugin-softdevice-0.0.8.ebuild >>> md5 files ;-) vdrplugin-softdevice-0.0.8_pre1.ebuild >>> md5 files ;-) vdrplugin-softdevice-0.1.0.ebuild >>> md5 files ;-) vdrplugin-softdevice-0.1.0-r1.ebuild >>> md5 files ;-) files/digest-vdrplugin-softdevice-0.0.7_pre1-r1 >>> md5 files ;-) files/digest-vdrplugin-softdevice-0.0.7_pre1 >>> md5 files ;-) files/vdr.softdevice >>> md5 files ;-) files/digest-vdrplugin-softdevice-0.0.7_pre2 >>> md5 files ;-) files/digest-vdrplugin-softdevice-0.0.7_pre3 >>> md5 files ;-) files/digest-vdrplugin-softdevice-0.0.8 >>> md5 files ;-) files/digest-vdrplugin-softdevice-0.0.8_pre1 >>> md5 files ;-) files/digest-vdrplugin-softdevice-0.1.0 >>> md5 files ;-) files/softdevice-0.0.7_pre1.diff >>> md5 files ;-) files/softdevice-0.0.8_pre1-vdr-1.3.18.diff >>> md5 files ;-) files/digest-vdrplugin-softdevice-0.1.0-r1 >>> md5 src_uri ;-) vdr-softdevice-0.1.0.tgz * Found DVB-Driver Includes: * /usr/include/ (API 3) * Found Includes for vdr version: * 1.3.22 * * softdevice-plugin for Video Disk Recorder * ----------------------------------------- * * You can use some VDR-SOFTDEVICE-USE-Flags to build your special plugin * Only add * VDR_SOFTDEVICE_OPTS="..." * to /etc/make.conf * * * Here is a list of all possible VDR_SOFTDEVICE_OPTS: * * xv -> enable XV-Support * vidix -> enable vidix-Support * dfb -> enable DFB-Support * fb -> enable FB-Support * * Your VDR_SOFTDEVICE_OPTS: dfb * >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking vdr-softdevice-0.1.0.tgz to /var/tmp/portage/vdrplugin- softdevice-0.1.0/work * disable XV-Support * disable Vidix-Support * DFB-Support is broken * please try vdrplugin-softdevice-0.1.0-r1 On Tue, 2005-05-17 at 14:36 +0200, Matthias Schwarzott wrote: > On Tuesday 17 May 2005 12:35, anthony hornby wrote: > > Hi All, > > I am trying to build vdrplugin-softdevice from the gentoo-de ebuilds on > > gentoo 2005. > > > > I am getting the following error because the path for the directfb & dfb > > ++ headers etc are wrong, everything is actually under /usr/include, but > > the install is looking for the headers under /usr/local/include. > > > > I am new to Gentoo and was wondering how I can deal with this nicely. > > How can I override the paths to get a successful build? > > > > Thanks for all your help > > > > Anthony > Could you please resync and try vdrplugin-softdevice-0.1.0-r1 > > Matthias -- Mr Anthony Hornby RHCE BIT ALIATEC Library Systems & Technology Coordinator Charles Darwin University | CRICOS 300K anthony.hornby@xxxxxxxxxx | office +61 8 89 466011
