Bug 150383 – wxGTK-2.4.2-r4 fails to compile with freetype-2.2

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Rene Gass 2006-10-07 07:38:45 UTC]

wxGTK-2.4.2 uses freetype internals. I have attached patches for ebuild and source code to correct this problem.

Well, "internals" was wrong. It's some kind of API change in freetype 2.2.1 or so. Anyway, it compiles with this patch. Another approach to the problem can be found here:

Is wxGTK-2.6 affected, as 2.4 is being phased out and no fixes are planned for it?

[Comment 5 Rene Gass 2006-10-07 08:37:46 UTC]

No, 2.6 compiles fine. Also I don't seem to have any package left on my system that requires wxGTK-2.4.

[Comment 6 Aron Griffis (RETIRED) 2006-10-14 20:49:43 UTC]

Mart, I applied this patch conditionally on freetype version in wxGTK-2.4.2-r4.ebuild (no need to revbump) because wxperl depends on wxGTK-2.4 even though they don't realize it yet.

Thanks for the patch, Rene
