Hey guys,

I've followed the Installation HowTo on the wiki to build the latest svn Amarok. However, once I get to the make -f Makefile.cvs stage, I always get an error. Here is the full output:

Code: Select all

This Makefile is only for the CVS repository
This will be deleted before making the distribution

*** automake (GNU automake) 1.7.9 found.

libamarok_gst10engine_plugin_la_LDFLAGS: variable `LIB_GST10' is used but `LIB_GST10' is undefined
make[1]: *** [cvs] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2

Does anyone have any ideas to fix this?

Same here with jordswart svn ebuild. Just tried to edit it - remove everything from the ebuild  gstreamer related, but its still same.

Use unsermake.

With unsermake it seems better, but only at the begining:

For me, it helped to to upgrade automake from 1.7 to version 1.9

Code: Select all

* sys-devel/automake
     Available versions:  1.4_p6 1.5 1.6.3 1.7.9-r1 1.8.5-r3 1.9.6-r1 1.9.6-r2
     Installed:           1.4_p6 1.5 1.6.3 1.7.9-r1 1.8.5-r3 1.9.6-r2

I am ready, so I added

Code: Select all

export WANT_AUTOMAKE=1.9

before line

Code: Select all

make -f Makefile.cvs

(in the ebuild)
and this time it looks like different

Code: Select all

Hmm, seems configure goes twice

Good - your configure finished. Start make now

 cd . && perl admin/am_edit
cd . && perl admin/am_edit Makefile.in

BUT this time make is CONTINUING ... hope till succesfull emerge end. Its MAGIC.

Hi all,
I'm building Amarok from SVN every day automagically, and I just built revision 558049 (2006-07-04T15:43:23.163957Z).

I noticed the error with gstreamer libs and since I use KDE 3.5.3 (built from sources with Konstruct) and I never useed Gstreamer, I simply deleted the folder in amarok/src/engine/gst10 .

I have a script that makes it all simple (I run this script as root):

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash

#Go to SVN folder
cd /root/tmp/amarok-svn/multimedia
make clean
cd ..

#Get from SVN
svn co -N svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/extragear/multimedia
cd multimedia
svn co svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/branches/KDE/3.5/kde-common/admin
svn up amarok

# REMOVE GSTREAMER
rm -rf amarok/src/engine/gst10/*

#Configure and make install
make -f Makefile.cvs && ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/kde3.5.3 --without-musicbrainz  --without-arts --without-libvisual --without-xmms --with-xine --without-opengl && make && make install && killall amarokapp



Since I use amarok as a standard player, I don't need fancy functions like MusicBrainz or visuals, but feel free to try my script with all your favorite configure options.

P.S.
Excuse me,
I don't intend to disrupt the work of developers on gstreamer implementation, I simply don't need it.
