Bug 533444 – sci-visualization/paraview-4.2.0 - fails with media-libs/freetype-2.5.4-r1 - vtkFreeTypeTools.cxx:1189:51: error: no matching function for call to ‘min(unsigned int&, int&)’

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Attila Tóth 2014-12-24 10:11:58 UTC]

It might be the new dev-cpp/ctemplate-2.3, I'm not sure, but paraview fails to compile. I suppose probably vtk fails as well.
There are three places in vtkFreeTypeTools.cxx it complains. As bitmap-> show up, it triggers an implicit cast from int to unsigned int.
I'm not sure about the proper solution, I cannot see anything upstreams. But if I explicitly cast bitmap-> to signed int, it compiles.


Reproducible: Always

Explicit casting - possible workaround

Possible workaround - its concept might be completely wrong...

[Comment 2 Juergen Rose 2014-12-24 12:51:38 UTC]

I have the same issue.

Please attach an emerge --info

[Comment 8 Matthias Maier 2014-12-25 11:23:54 UTC]

The culprit is media-libs/freetype-2.5.4-r1 in which the signature of bitmap->{width,row} changed from int to unsigned int.

[Comment 10 Attila Tóth 2014-12-27 09:11:44 UTC]

vtk has a version bump including a patch for the same issue:
sci-libs/vtk/files/vtk-6.1.0-freetype.patch
It does non-static casts in brackets covering the whole equation bitmap-> is in.

[Comment 11 Bluey The Dog 2014-12-31 06:31:36 UTC]

Got this problem as well. Don't know if it's any help, but I tried building with clang as well. The build log is attached.
