phonon 4.4.2r3 does not build

[Greisby (Greisberger Christophe)]

First, the compilation fails (I have qt4-mac 4.7.3)

There is an error in phonon/pulsesupport.cpp :

#include <QTimer>

should be

#include <QtCore/QTimer>

Then, there is an error linking libphonon_qt7.dylib : -lphonon is not found.

I checked in /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_audio_phonon/phonon/work/phonon-4.4.2/build/lib/
There is a phonon.la

I have no idea what I could try now.

For info:
OS: Snow Leopard 10.6.8

FS: case sensitive
XCode: 4.0.2

I found that the problem could be the one from Ticket #27611 but I cannot activate qt4-mac:

$ sudo qt4_select qt4-mac
version "qt4-mac" is invalid!

$ sudo qt4_select -l
Available versions:
none

qt4-mac is of course installed.

[Greisby (Greisberger Christophe)]

I followed the other ticket and put "portdbformat sqlite" in macports.conf
I now have more versions:

$ sudo qt4_select -l
Available versions:
current none

But selecting fails:

$ sudo qt4_select current
Selecting version "current" for qt4
rm: /opt/local/share/doc/qt4: is a directory
rm: /opt/local/share/qt4: is a directory
there were 2 errors selecting version "current"!

I tried tweaking (renaming these directories) and qt4_select does not fail anymore.
But these 2 folders are not replaced with links and /opt/local/bin/qmake & other are gone...
I tried to switch between none and current, but nothing happens.

I'll install a new variant of qt4-mac and I hope to have qt4 back.

There must be something wrong in qt4_select or in qt4-mac.

Please attach the build log.

[Greisby (Greisberger Christophe)]

I'll as soon as I have a working qt4-mac again. It's still building.

Hi, any news? I would like to install kde 4 but I'm stuck with phonon...

[Greisby (Greisberger Christophe)]

I installed today qt-mac with -framework and now phonon builds. Strange.

Phonon has been upgraded to 4.6.0_0 a while ago, and it uses a very different build method compared with 4.4.2. I'm closing this ticket since it's no longer applicable. After doing a "selfupdate" and then "upgrade outdated": If the new Phonon has a similar issue, then please create a new ticket or join on to an existing one.
