Description Cletus Lichte 2003-02-03 08:55:40 UTC

I get the following error when compiling wxGTK:

for now just `env USE="-odbc" emerge wxGTK`

Comment 2 Nick Hadaway 2003-02-04 04:41:04 UTC

you are attempting to compile wxGTK with the gtk2 eabled in USE.  This is experimental and as noted by wxGTK here, odbc support doesn't work with a gtk2-linked wxGTK (unicode support is only enabled with gtk2).

You either need to remove gtk2 or odbc from your USE flags.

I don't want to remove the gtk2 use flag code from the ebuild as it's good for people to test.  Currently the gtk2 code in many programs is still experimental and this is noted in use.desc... 

I'd suggest not linking against gtk2 as I know the odbc support works fine without.

cant we get a small code workaround ? a check to see if odbc and gtk2 are enabled, and if so, dont enable odbc support ? (or something similar)

Comment 4 Cletus Lichte 2003-02-04 16:57:57 UTC

I've removed the gtk2 use flag in my make.conf for this ebuild. Thanks for your
help!

Comment 5 Cletus Lichte 2003-02-04 17:59:23 UTC

I have one other question.  My system has both versions of GTK installed and ebuilds that require either pick wich one to use.  Why doesn't the wxGTK ebuild pick the gtk1 library to build against instead of using the gtk2?
