Hello list,

Has anyone here got kompozer to build on a Gentoo ~amd64 box? I did have
a version running some months ago and I've tried to upgrade it but
failed. The compiled versions require old libs that aren't installed
here and the source needs some incantation I haven't found yet.

I use Bluefish for HTML maintenance, but kompozer is useful for
developing CSS.

Thanks for any tips.

I have kompozer-0.8_beta1 running on this box which is amd64 but
quite a long list in /etc/portage/package.keywords.

Well, as this box is ~amd64 I shouldn't need any of those. But kompozer
isn't in portage as far as I can see, so how did you get it installed?

I got an ebuild somewhere, probably bugzilla. If you want a copy, I've
put it on http://www.neiljw.net/kompozer-0.8_beta1.ebuild.

Hehe. It seems a few people wanted that but I did see a couple of
http 404s in the logs. That's because you included the full stop.

Thanks Neil. I'll have a look at it in the morning. Or maybe the
afternoon, remembering some unfortunate incidents recently when I hadn't
woken up properly (Hello Neil B.)

I tried this just now. I saved your ebuild as /usr/local/portage/app-
editors/kompozer/kompozer-0.8_beta1.ebuild, then ran ebuild [...]
manifest on it, then tried to emerge it. I got this configuration error:

configure: error: --enable-application=APP is required

which I've seen before when trying to compile this program. I didn't
manage to solve it then, and i haven't this time either.

Any clues? Thanks for the help so far.

Sorry about that. It's been a few weeks since I did this and had forgotten
that another file is needed:

http://www.neiljw.net/mozconfig-0.8_beta1

Put that file in the files subdirectory of wherever you have the ebuild then
remake the manifest. The emerge starts with a warning about mozconfig.eclass
but you can just ignore that. Then go read "War and Peace" or something
because it takes a while even on four cores.

Be lucky,

To those people still trying to download the files, please

note there is NO full stop (period) at the end of the ebuild

filename. The two files you need are:

http://www.neiljw.net/kompozer-0.8_beta1.ebuild

and

http://www.neiljw.net/mozconfig-0.8_beta1



Be lucky,

Neil

Ah. So now it builds ok (18 min here) but when I call "kompozer" from a
command line I get:

/usr/lib/kompozer/run-mozilla.sh: line 131: 13315 Segmentation fault
"$prog" ${1+"$@"}

This is odd, as that line is just the opening curly brace of the
moz_run_program() function.

I notice, though, at the head of the run-mozilla.sh script, this
assignment: MOZ_PROGRAM="". I tried setting this instead to:
MOZ_PROGRAM="./kompozer-bin" but I got the same seg fault (except that
the 13315 had changed to 30525).

I'm near my debugging limit here.
