Bug ID: 343636
Summary: Trying to emerge with VS6 in the environment variable
causes compiler errors
Product: kde-windows
Version: unspecified
Platform: MS Windows
OS: MS Windows
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: buildsystem
Assignee: kde-windows@kde.org
Reporter: mrloquax@googlemail.com
I tried to carry out a fresh build / install of KDE for windows using the
emerge system.
Whilst emerging 'qt' a number of errors were thrown up. Looking at the output
in the console I noticed a lot of references to VS98, which threw up a few red
flags seeing as I was trying to build using mingw!
Looking at the PATH environmental variable I noticed that VS6 (used for old
work projects) had added a few entries of it's own. Removing these and
rerunning 'emerge qt' got me further but more errors started cropping up.
I bit more digging revealed that VS6 had also added some entries to the INCLUDE
and LIB environmental variables. Removing these and rerunning 'emerge qt' again
finally allowed the build to complete successfully.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install VS6
2. Follow: https://techbase.kde.org/Getting_Started/Build/Windows/emerge
3. At the 'emerge qt' step errors should start to get thrown up
Actual Results:
Lots of script / compiler errors
Expected Results:
QT should have compiled successfully
Not a huge issue, not too many people still have VS6 installed. Could possibly
be tested for and prevented though.
