[Description Shaun Cloherty 2008-05-09 13:13:03 UTC]

The linker fails with a 'duplicate symbol' error when attempting to emerge libglade-1.6.2 using prefix-portage on OS X 10.5:

Created attachment 152715 [details, diff]
Patch against glib-2.16.3 forcing inline functions to be declared 'static inline' on OS X.

It seem this is actually a bug with glib and the handling of inline functions on OS X. Re-merging glib with the attached patch (against glib-2.16.3) resolved this issue for me such that libglade merged successfully.

Created attachment 152717 [details]
Modified ebuild for glib-2.16.3.

Modified ebuild (designated -r00.1 - is that the right approach in prefix-portage?) to apply the attached patch.

wow, thanks!

Is this known upstream?

[Comment 4 Fabian Groffen 2008-05-10 07:19:34 UTC]

Yes, -r00.1 is correct in Prefix.  I applied your patch, thanks again!
