Bug 31067 – hardware-monitor and libgnomeuimm can no longer be compiled after upgrading to libgnomemm 2

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Steven Waddell 2003-10-13 14:12:08 UTC]

I have upgraded to libgnomemm-2.0, the hardware-monitor applet ceased to load
since it's linked to libgnomemm-1.3. 

A recompile of hardware-monitor fails with the error message:
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.2.3/../../../../i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld:
cannot find -lgnomemm-1.3

libgnomeuimm compilation fails with the same problem.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. "emerge libgnomemm"
2. "emerge hardware-monitor" or "emerge libgnomuimm" 
3.

Actual Results:  
emerge faile with a linker error 
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.2.3/../../../../i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld:
cannot find -lgnomemm-1.3

I had the same problem. For some reason, libgnomemm-2.0 installs its pkg-config
file (/usr/lib/pkgconfig/libgnomemm-2.0.pc) with -lgnomemm-1.3 in the Libs
field.
I just hacked it to say -lgnomemm-2.0.

After that, I had to recompile libgnomeuimm-2 to get the dependencies right.

thanks for tracking that down. i've added a patch and a new revision for
libgnomemm with the fixed pkgconfig file.
