Error while compiling PackageKit

Orchard · 2010-10-05 23:38:55

I have some problems compiling PackageKit (gnome-packagekit-2.32.0)
When I run a ./configure of the source, the following error pops-up and the configure fails.

checking for PACKAGEKIT... no
configure: error: Package requirements (packagekit-glib2 >= 0.5.5) were not met:

No package 'packagekit-glib2' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables PACKAGEKIT_CFLAGS
and PACKAGEKIT_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

Does anyone know a solution?

Do you have packagekit-glib2 installed? I believe there are PKGBUILDs in the AUR.

It sounds like your trying to build it directly rather than from the PKGBUILD in the AUR.

If you haven't already done so read about the AUR then install from there

Now I get the following error:

looking for inter-conflicts...
:: gir-repository and gobject-introspection are in conflict. Remove gobject-introspection? [y/N]

I can't remove "gobject-introspection", this is needed by other packages.
The install fails. I'm installing with "yaourt"

-- earlier in the ./configure process (before using makepkg or yaourt) I already got this confict sometimes.
Don't know how to fix it!

Hmm, it looks like gir-repository has gobject-introspection as a dependency, but gobject-introspection says it's supposed to replace gir-repository. That seems contradictory and could be a packaging error that should be reported to the bug tracker.

Thanks ! At first, I did not see why that topic could be usefull. But now it proceeds with compiling after editing PKGBUILD and removing the depenency.

But: another error which I do not understand is popping up.

... far in the compiling process:

* Not including .h files to be scanned
* Broken --identifier-prefix

Anyone?
I saw someone make a pastebin (exactly the same), so this error can not be unknown...

What do you mean with report upstream?

wonder · 2010-10-06 09:07:53

in fact, it seems to be fixed. just update the PKGBUILD to 0.6.9

Ok. I chose the package "gnome-packagekit-pacman 2.32.0-1" , which is the fixed one
After another error, thus removing "pacman-glib" which I probaly picked up during the fails before

I get almost the same error, but with some other outcome.
