Patch for fbida 2.09 to compile against giflib 4.2.0 and newer.

Starting from version 4.2.0 giflib does not have PrintGifError() function. It had been replaced with GifErrorString().

Fbida needs patch (please find attached patch for version 2.09) to compile when gif use flag is set.
Comment 1 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2013-12-16 12:29:42 UTC
The patch lacks a configure check for PrintGifError() vs. GifErrorString(). Since fbida's build time configuration is an odd one, a revision bump should probably be made to *DEPEND on the newer media-libs/giflib.
Comment 2 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2013-12-31 17:24:59 UTC
Fixed in -r1 (which should go stable with >media-libs/giflib-4.2.

Not resolved. Only resolved when >=fbida-2.09-r1 is marked stable.

Stable fbida hence stable gentoo is still not compiling, hence a bug.

kindly
Andreas

That's what we call "mixing branches". Stable fbida works fine with stable giflib, and unstable fbida works fine with unstable giflib.

sorry you are right. My fault. Some earlier --autounmask had unmasked giflib.
