gtkdocize not required.

Is ok without the -i, but even if gtk-doc is installed it defaults
to no docs:

checking whether to build gtk-doc documentation... no

In this case, --enable-gtk-doc is needed to *build* the docs if
gtk-doc has been installed, unlike e.g. libgrss where the switch
controls *rebuilding* the docs.

Fails badly, it needs -fi AND gtk-doc for autoreconf.
After that, one of the tests is still using /usr/bin/python which I
do not have normally available:

=
   Telepathy-GLib 0.24.1: tests/test-suite.log
=

# TOTAL: 16
# PASS:  15
# SKIP:  0
# XFAIL: 0
# FAIL:  1

# ERROR: 0

FAIL: all-errors-documented.py
==

../build-aux/test-driver: ./all-errors-documented.py: /usr/bin/python: bad 
interpreter: No such file or directory
FAIL all-errors-documented.py (exit status: 126)

Looking for /usr/bin/python finds:
terpreter: No such file or directory
./tests/all-errors-documented.py.log:../build-aux/test-driver: 
./all-errors-documented.py: /usr/bin/python: bad interpreter: No such file or

./tests/tools/Makefile:PYTHON = /usr/bin/python3
./tests/lib/Makefile:PYTHON = /usr/bin/python3
./tests/dbus/Makefile:PYTHON = /usr/bin/python3

Adding  sed -i 's%/usr/bin/python%&3%' tests/all-errors-documented.py
fixes that and allows the second set of tests to run.

This too needs the -i in autoreconf.

Without the -i, libgrss builds fine.

Now I just need to edit all of these, and comment the autoreconf in
cogl (from last week).

Thanks for the explanation, keeping track of where there was a
stealth update which we fixed seems quite hard.  I'm not likely to
commit any of this soon.

Yeah the autoreconf command can go from cifs-utils. There was a broken

So, it looks like I still have one to test, one non-book package to
test, and a few to retest without -i.

That's what I meant (for "do the current instructions need
gtkdocize" I've already completed), and for some of those (few) that
do, I have the deps and can see if dropping -i solves things.

The list of those where gtkdocize is needed but I might not have the
deps for a full build is on another machine, will report back later.

 From reading the patch that introduced gtkdocize in autoconf [1],
it appears that gtkdocize is not called if the -i (--install) flags is
not passed. That flag is not needed for polkit. We might want to check
whether it is really needed for the other packages that use autoreconf.

Interesting, but I'm not sure I can check that throughout - I've
checked plain "does autoreconf work to produce a configure script"
on several packages where I lack the dependencies to actually build
them.


Just checking all packages, the following are present:

networking/netprogs/cifsutils.xml: autoreconf -fiv 

networking/netlibs/libnsl.xml: autoreconf -fi 


x/lib/clutter.xml: autoreconf -f -i
x/lib/cairo.xml:   autoreconf -fiv

general/genutils/gtk-doc.xml:  autoreconf -fiv
pst/sgml/sgml-common.xml:  autoreconf -f -i
xsoft/other/tigervnc.xml:  autoreconf -fiv

I didn't check the individual pages, but perhaps they all should use 
-fv.  We would need to do a test build at least though make to ensure 
the instructions still work.

Some of the modules that used to be in the main /qt/ directory are now found in

https://download.qt-project.org/official_releases/additional_libraries/

I see that the most recent poppler has a qt6 in addition to the qt5 library, 
which Arch is building, but nothing is using it yet.

From reading the patch that introduced gtkdocize in autoconf [1],
it appears that gtkdocize is not called if the -i (--install) flags is
not passed. That flag is not needed for polkit. We might want to check
whether it is really needed for the other packages that use autoreconf.

Guessing: you haven't run the instructions in the "Configuration"
paragraph of docbook-xml-4.5.

Note: usually, xsltproc is run with the --nonet switch, so that loading
an external entity fails if it is not present locally.

[blfs-dev] Error building libxslt-1.1.34

2021-01-05 Thread Tim Tassonis via blfs-dev

Hi all

I am stuck at building libxslt-1.1.34, getting the following error:



I/O error : Attempt to load network entity 
http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.1.2/docbookx.dtd
doc/xsltproc.xml:8: warning: failed to load external entity 
"http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.1.2/docbookx.dtd;

]>



For the record, the URL 
"http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.1.2/docbookx.dtd; works fine 
with curl or the browser. While I first ignored this error, it now 
really bites mime at shared-mime-info.


I have installed both  docbook-xml-4.5 and docbook-xsl-1.79.2, and also 
libxml2, but not any other docbook stuff.


Does anybody know where this error is coming from?




Bye
Tim
