Bug 90181 – sci-biology/treeviewx-0.5 fails to build if wxGTK was built with USE=no_wxgtk1

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Andreas Pokorny (RETIRED) 2005-04-23 16:51:53 UTC]

The Makefile of treeviewx link against libwx_gtk-dcsvg a small contributed library of wxWidgets, to create svg files. People using USE=no_wxgtk1 will only get a libwx_gtk2-dcsvg library, thus the build fails.  

I will add a patch that adds a short test that looks for existing dcsvg libraries to configure.in, and change the Makefile.am to pick the library found by configure.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. USE="no_wxgtk1" emerge wxGTK
2. emerge =sci-biology/treeviewx-0.5

Created attachment 57073 [details, diff]
treeviewx-dcsvg.patch

* derives the library name of dcsvg from the wx-config output
* adds a call to AC_CHECK_LIB with an apropriate reaction on failure
* defines an automake variable including the library name of dcvsg
* replaces the hard coded linker command "-lwx_gtk-dcvsg" with the automake
variable

I just added TreeViewX 0.5.1 to the tree. This version has a configure check     
for the SVG library, and builds against wxGTK 2.6, which never builds a GTK1    
version. This should fix the problem.
