Bug 279271 – [gnome overlay] sys-auth/polkit-0.93 requires dev-libs/glib-2.21.4

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description John W Eckhart 2009-07-27 07:34:35 UTC]

polkit-0.93 depends on GInitableIface which is only provided with newer versions of glib. The only version of glib in portage to provide that interface is glib-2.21.4. I've attached the failed build log and environment. I've also tested that the polkit-0.93 build passes with glib-2.21.4.

Reproducible: Always

mhh effectivelly, I can confirm http://library.gnome.org/devel/gio/unstable/GInitable.html#GInitableIface

And the configure.ac is not up-to-date at all... upstream mistake... :

PKG_CHECK_MODULES(GLIB, [glib-2.0 >= 2.14.0 gio-2.0 >= 2.14.0])

Okay this evening I'll write a patch to fix it (trivial fix) or if someone write one before no problem, feel free to do it :)

Fixed into the overlay without a bump.

thanks for reporting ;)
