config.log

gnutls.x86_64 0:3.1.20-1.fc20 causes configure to segfault.  Reverting to gnutls.x86_64 3.1.16-1 fixes the problem.  Attached is the config.log

I filed a bug here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1063089 and they said to bring it up with the XBMC folks.  I tried building the FC 21 version of gnutls with the same result.

If this is the wrong place, sorry for the noise. :)

P.S. Everything seems to be working fine with the older version of gnutls installed.  Currently, I'm running the alpha 11 version built against your source rpm using their internal ffmpeg library.

I highly suspect this is a bug in trousers or gnutls. See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1069079

Already mentioned in the "update to alpha11" bug (bug 3185) but for the record, here's the patch that avoids the configure crash with newer gnutls: http://fedorapeople.org/cgit/alexlan/public_git/xbmc-rpm.git/tree/xbmc-13.0-libmysqlclient.patch?id=ad2fa8bf32377efe6d56e8a154677ce160d108f1

I am still seeing another build problem later in the process, but I ran out of time this weekend to fully diagnose it.

Comment 3 Ken Dreyer 2014-03-14 15:27:01 CET

The problem was that both Goom and the rsxs screensaver were crashing during their respective ./configure's (due to the RHBZ 1069079 mentioned above.)

The solution for XBMC is to patch our top-level configure.in in both places.

I've updated the xbmc-13.0-libmysqlclient.patch in this commit: http://fedorapeople.org/cgit/alexlan/public_git/xbmc-rpm.git/commit/?id=07a4d38162f2718884c4d9462d169b1b7ab0b7c5

This allows me to build on Rawhide (F21) and F20. Test RPMs are here: http://lesloueizeh.com/ktdreyer/xbmc-Gotham_beta1/

The problematic trousers version is present in both Fedora 21 and Fedora 20, so in RHBZ 1069079 I've asked Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos to push a trousers update to both branches. We will need xbmc-13.0-libmysqlclient.patch until then.

By the way, I think you mentioned you'd reported this upstream? Mind pointing me at the link(s) to that discussion? It would be nice if XBMC's build process treated a library's ./configure failure inside XB_CONFIG_MODULE as a fatal error, and the top-level xbmc ./configure would bail early in that case. That would save a lot of debugging time.

Gotham beta 2 has now been built for rawhide and F20. It will be a few days until you can grab it from updates-testing, but you can use the links below.
