strigi fails to build 64-bit

[andrea@…]

Looks like a 64-bit issue to me.

port -dv install strigi

The problem is in strigi itself. I tried to compile it by hand and found that some variables have wrong types.

You have to make two changes, to compile it successfully:

src/daemon/dbus/dbuscpp/dbusmessagereader.cpp: Line 66
change: DBusMessageReader::operator>>(int64_t& s) {
into: DBusMessageReader::operator>>(dbus_int64_t& s) {

build/src/daemon/dbus/dbusclientinterface.cpp: Line 148
change: uint64_t mtime;
into: dbus_uint64_t mtime;

The second file is generated during compilation.

So the workaround is:
Do "sudo port install strigi", wait until it breaks and change the first file:
cd /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_devel_strigi/work/strigi-0.6.3/
edit src/daemon/dbus/dbuscpp/dbusmessagereader.cpp

Then "sudo port install strigi" again, wait until it breaks again and change the second file:
edit src/daemon/dbus/dbusclientinterface.cpp
(in MacPorts it's built in the src directory, so no "build/" in front of the path)

Then "sudo port install strigi" again, and it should compile successfully.

I'll see if I can communicate this directly to the strigi people...

Fixes it for me, thanks.

I'm not quite able to make the 2nd patch work in the Portfile. I'm going to attach my attempt so far.

[macsforever2000@…]

Modified strigi portfile

[macsforever2000@…]

This is the 2nd patch based on a generated file that I cannot get to work with the portfile.

[macsforever2000@…]

This is the 1st patch and it works fine.

[macsforever2000@…]

Re-made the existing portfile patch to use p0.

As of today, I can't get strigi to build with any of the above prescriptions. I have attached the output that port reported as strigi.txt

[florian.feldhaus@…]

Same for me. The two fixes solved the first problems, but Strigi didn't finnish building. I figured out, that it was building i386 and x86_64 binaries, even I didn't have the universal option set. The following worked for me: sudo port clean strigi sudo port install strigi -universal

You will run into the problems mentioned above. If the patches don't work, apply the changes by hand!

Workaround worked for me (using the mentioned patches and -universal option)

Hi. I came up with ​this patch to fix the issue for Gentoo/Prefix. The problem is that strigi seems to have some internal data type problems, which in conjunction with the auto-generation of the files just heads for serious trouble. Anyway, you can't make the types use dbus_-tyles because the interface src/daemon/clientinterface.h is used for makecode.pl which contains no dbus-stuff at all and defines "virtual void indexFile(const std::string& path, uint64_t mtime, const std::vector<char>& content)" which imho is the "uint64_t mtime" that fails in the generated src/daemon/dbus/dbusclientinterface.cpp. So the nearest workaround is to switch from the dbus_-types in dbusmessagereader.cpp to the standard defines. This patch allows for fully automatic building (at least with Gentoo/Prefix). Maybe it's to some help for you :-)

Kind regards,

Heiko
