ImfRgbaFile.h: No such file or directory whyle installing KDE4 on NetBSD 9.2

[marietto2021]

Hello.

I'm trying to install kde4 on NetBSD 9.2 but right now unsuccesfully. I tried to do that using two methods :

1)

netbsd-marietto# pkgin install kde4

kde4 is not available in the repository

calculating dependencies...done.

nothing to do.

2)

cd /usr/pkgsrc/meta-pkgs/kde4

make

......

#include <ImfRgbaFile.h>

^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

compilation terminated.

gmake: *** [Makefile:166: all] Error 2

it seems that it wants that I copy all the *.h files from


/usr/pkg/include/OpenEXR/

TO

/usr/pkgsrc/x11/kdelibs4/work/kdelibs-4.14.38/kimgio/


So ok. I've copied all the *.h files there,but the compilation wasn't succesfull anyway :

See https://mail-index.netbsd.org/pkgsrc...msg237932.html. Providing this is not included in 2021Q2, you may apply the patch yourself using LOCALPATCHES or switch to pkgsrc-current packages

thanks. The files that I should patch are already patched,probably because yesterday I did : cd /usr/pkgsrc && cvs up -dPA ? BTW,the problem is still there.

Most likely you need to update graphics/openexr to 3.x (this is what triggered the build fixes on kdelibs4).
Do not mix different pkgsrc branches; namely, do not mix binary packages from stable quarterly releases with software built from source pkgsrc-current, unless you wat to run into a dependency hell.
Get a quarterly pkgsrc release matching that used to built the binary packages (in this case 2021Q2) and avoid using custom build options if you plan on mixing.

[marietto2021]

I can understand you,but the problem is that sometimes I'm not able to install a package with pkgin,because...it isn't in the repository. So I'm forced to compile it from source,if I want to have it. what's the solution of this ? maybe installing everything from the source ? because as I see,from the source I've always found everything,as binary no.

[marietto2021]

How can I upgrade the binary packages to the current stage to sync them with the pkgsrc current ?

You find various current pbulks here (I had already linked this above); naturally you can't expect even the latest one to be in sync with most recent pkgsrc-current changes.
My personal recommendation however (I'm not really a fan of cutting edge) is to either replace your pkgsrc tree with pkgsrc-2021Q2, and build from that (so that you'll be 100% sure it's in sync with stable binary packages, which currently are based on 2021Q2), or compile everything from source with current. There are tool to automatize the process, such as pkg_comp.
If you decide to stay with stable quarterly packages, you can still apply the patch you want with LOCALPATCHES, as I showed you above, and see if this fixes the problem
