[UNSOLVED] qt4-gnome-globalmenu-git

I am trying to compile a plugin that should make gnome-globalmenu work with qt apps. It should be fairly simple, the source tree only holds 3 files. I am however, sadly so incompetent that I can't work out what to do with my own improvised PKGBUILD to make it compile:

#Maintainer  Anders Honoré  <b9anders AT gmail DOT com> 

pkgname=qt4-gnome-globalmenu-git
pkgver=20111022
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="An extention to make the menus for QT apps show on the Gnome global menu bar."
url="https://gitorious.org/firefox-gnome-globalmenu/qt4-gnome-globalmenu"
license="GPL"
arch=('i686' 'x86_64')
depends=('gnome-globalmenu-xfce4' 'qt-appmenu' 'appmenu-qt')
makedepends=('git' 'qt-private-headers')
_gitroot='git://gitorious.org/firefox-gnome-globalmenu/qt4-gnome-globalmenu.git'
_gitname='qt4-gnome-globalmenu'
optdepends=()
options=()
conflicts=()
provides=('qt4-gnome-globalmenu-git')
replaces=()
install=
source=()
md5sums=()

build() {
    cd $startdir/src
  
    msg "Connecting to GIT server...."
    
    if [ -d $startdir/src/$_gitname ] ; then
        cd $_gitname && git pull origin
        msg "The local files are updated."
    else
        git clone $_gitroot
        cd $_gitname
    fi

  msg "GIT checkout done or server timeout"

	qmake
	make
}

package() {
	make DESTDIR=$pkgdir PREFIX=/usr install
}

Obviously something is missing at the end of it here, but I don't know enough about compiling stuff to say what.

thanks for replying. I added the following to the end of the PKGBUILD above:

  msg "GIT checkout done or server timeout"

	qmake
	make
}

package() {
	make DESTDIR=$pkgdir PREFIX=/usr install
}

And changed the dependencies after pursuing some error messages:

depends=('gnome-globalmenu-xfce4' 'qt-appmenu' 'appmenu-qt')
makedepends=('git' 'qt-private-headers')

and ran makepkg -s (I updated the PKGBUILD in the OP to reflect the changes). The output is more than before but it doesn't get very far before exiting:

g++ -c -m64 -pipe -march=x86-64 -mtune=generic -O2 -pipe -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -Wall -W -D_REENTRANT -fPIC -DQT_NO_DEBUG -DQT_PLUGIN -DQT_XML_LIB -DQT_GUI_LIB -DQT_CORE_LIB -DQT_SHARED -I/usr/share/qt/mkspecs/linux-g++-64 -I. -I/usr/include/QtCore -I/usr/include/QtGui -I/usr/include/QtXml -I/usr/include -I. -o qx11menubarimpl.o qx11menubarimpl.cpp
In file included from qx11menubarimpl.cpp:10:0:
qx11menubarimpl.h:9:54: fatal error: QtGui/private/qabstractplatformmenubar_p.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
make: *** [qx11menubarimpl.o] Error 1

The only hits google recognises for "QtGui/private/qabstractplatformmenubar_p.h"  are for a package Fedora names 'libqt4-private-dev' and Ubuntu's 'qt-devel-private'. From what I can it tell, qt-private-headers should be the corresponding package in Arch (and is included in the dependencies for that reason) but I can find no trace of the missing file in my system after having installed it.

Kinda stuck from here. :-/

Re: [UNSOLVED] qt4-gnome-globalmenu-git

I suspect that header file is in the qt sources (private headers are not really meant to be used externally so it's not in the qt package) . So you could look there. You could also ask the upstream qt4-gnome-globalmenu-git dev about it.
