Bug 288680 – gnome-system-monitor-2.26.2 needs glitz and svg use flags in cairo

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: VERIFIED INVALID

[Description Ingo Krabbe 2009-10-12 06:58:17 UTC]

gnome-system-monitor refused to build against cairomm, as cairomm had unresolved symbols against cario:

/usr/lib64/libcairomm-1.0.so: undefined reference to `cairo_svg_get_versions'
/usr/lib64/libcairomm-1.0.so: undefined reference to `cairo_svg_surface_create_for_stream'
/usr/lib64/libcairomm-1.0.so: undefined reference to `cairo_glitz_surface_create'
/usr/lib64/libcairomm-1.0.so: undefined reference to `cairo_svg_version_to_string'
/usr/lib64/libcairomm-1.0.so: undefined reference to `cairo_svg_surface_create'
/usr/lib64/libcairomm-1.0.so: undefined reference to `cairo_svg_surface_restrict_to_version'

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
USE="-svg -glitz" emerge -NuD cairo gnome-system-monitor





solution is to add svg and glitz use flags to cairo.  Either a warning message or a dependency fix should be given in gnome-system-monitor-2.26.2.

Please rebuild cairomm and gtkmm. gnome-system-monitor should build fine after that.

Thanks

Thats wrong:  As I already commented the solution is not to rebuild cairomm and gtkmm but to change use flags for cairo.

This change is not obvious for people who don't know about missing symbols during link phase.  So I recommend to add the use dependencies to the package.

No it's not wrong. If you change cairo's USE flags, you'll need to rebuild cairomm and gtkmm. And there's nothing we can do in that case, unfortunately.

This works fine for me.

Thanks

Yes, I assume this is solved now,as cairomm has a better depend statement on cairo (asking for the svg flag), so that a -D(eep) update will automgically rebuild cairomm, which is the desired behaviour.
