Hi,

I'm following these instructions to build Calligra on a Windows host.

http://community.kde.org/Calligra/Building_Calligra_on_Windows

While doing the emerge qt step, I get this error message from git:

Cloning into ....
remote: Counting objects: 698437, done.
remote: aborting due to possible repository corruption on the remote side. 
fatal: early EOF fatal: index-pack failed
emerge fatal error: command fetch failed
emerge fatal error: running python 
r:\emerge\portage\libs\qt\qt-4.8.2.20120321.py fetch
emerge debug: Task: Emerge stopped after: 0:02:11.719000

Sometimes it starts fetching the objects and on the console I see
"compressing objects", and sometimes it immediately exists after the
Counting objects phase. But I can never succeed in getting qt.

Looks like gitorious is being obstreperous :-(.

I managed to actually get qt downloaded earlier this week. One thing you can do is to try to clone qt manually, into $KDEROOT\git. If all else fails, you can download a release tarball yourself and work with that, with some trickery to convince the emerge system that you installed it.

Are you using msvc or mingw for this project? In either case, you have to count on spending some time getting all the bits in place, the emerge process almost never runs smoothly from begin to end, there's always something.


How do we fix this?

Kind regards,

Philip
