gedit @3.20.2: No GTK-Doc found, please install it

[gkdgoutam]

OS X 10.7.5

The command 'sudo port upgrade outdated' fails with error related to gedit. The log file is attached.

[gkdgoutam]

fail gedit

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

The log says:

:info:configure *** No GTK-Doc found, please install it ***

The gtk-doc port should be installed, since it is a declared dependency of gedit. You can verify if it's installed by running port installed gtk-doc. Assuming gtk-doc is already installed and active, you could attach the config.log file to this ticket, which may contain more information about why gtk-doc could not be found. The config.log is probably in the directory identified by the command port work gedit.

[gkdgoutam]

gtk-doc is installed.

 port installed gtk-doc
The following ports are currently installed:
  gtk-doc @1.20_1+python27
  gtk-doc @1.20_2+python27
  gtk-doc @1.21_1
  gtk-doc @1.24_1
  gtk-doc @1.25_1 (active)

Inside the directory

/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_gnome_g
edit/gedit/work/gedit-3.20.2

there is no config.log generated. But when I do sudo ./configure there, it does configure without error and generates config.log as usual. I don't know whether I can do make && make install there!

[dbevans (David B. Evans)]

The error

*** No GTK-Doc found, please install it ***

comes from a check in autogen.sh not configure. Since we're using intltool and have patch configure.ac, we need to reconfigure using autogen.sh before trying to run ./configure. Running configure manually before autogen.sh has regenerated it will not provide the correct results.

This error message implies that the command

which gtkdocize

has failed. Can you run this manually? It should return the path to the installed gtkdocize binary.

[gkdgoutam]

Well

which gtkdocize

returns nothing. Strange!!

but

port installed gtk-doc
The following ports are currently installed:
  gtk-doc @1.20_1+python27
  gtk-doc @1.20_2+python27
  gtk-doc @1.21_1
  gtk-doc @1.24_1
  gtk-doc @1.25_1 (active)

[dbevans (David B. Evans)]

Ok try this and see if it helps

$ hash -r
$ which gtkdocize

If that fails then you can see where gtkdocize is installed by using

port contents gtk-doc

and then make sure that that path is in $PATH

[gkdgoutam]

hash -r 
which gtkdocize

doesn't return anything.

port contents gtk-doc
Port gtk-doc contains:

I put /opt/local/lib/cmake/GtkDoc/ , /opt/local/share, /opt/local/share/gtk-doc in $PATH but nothing changes. Are these correct PATH to include?

[dbevans (David B. Evans)]

Looks like your gtk-doc port is not properly installed for some reason. On my machine

$ which gtkdocize
/opt/local/bin/gtkdocize

but your gtk-doc port has nothing installed under /opt/local/bin. I suggest you reinstall using

$ sudo port -n upgrade --force gtk-doc

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Closing because the ticket is old and the problem was due to an unexplained incorrect build of gtk-doc. If you can tell us how to reproduce the incorrect build of gtk-doc or what we should change in MacPorts to prevent it from happening to others, please let us know.
