[Description Ted Baker 2004-01-20 16:25:06 UTC]

Lots of errors relating to fltk (if someone can tell me how to capture the output of gcc I'll post the actual errors if required)

I'm running v1.1.4 of fltk

try to remerge fltk and then again xpp

to capture the ouput just enable PORT_LOGDIR=/var/log/portage in your make.conf

[Comment 2 Ted Baker 2004-01-21 02:44:05 UTC]

Did that before posting the bug. But I've done the following since just to be sure:

1. revdep_rebuild
2. emerge fltk
3. emerge xpp

Same result.

I'll attach the output from emerge xpp. I've capture the output from emerge fltk if it is needed.

Created attachment 24165 [details]
Output of emerge xpp

[Comment 4 Heinrich Wendel (RETIRED) 2004-01-21 05:02:31 UTC]

try to add -lfltk to LDFLAGS in the ebuild

[Comment 5 Ted Baker 2004-01-21 06:51:51 UTC]

It worked! Thanks.

But ...

The display of the words on the dialogs are wrong - they start "before" the dialog edge and drop off the other side if you see what I mean (I can send you a screenshot if that helps). This is really obvious with the text for the file name input slot on the startup window (the slot that ends in "(blank = standard input)" - the start of that sentence is "invisible" because the window manager is trying to display it to the left of the dialog/program window (which, of course, it can't)
 
I can live with it because I know how xpp works, but newbies might be as confused as hell.

i see the problem that the fonts are overlapping but the overlapping parts are still displayed here. This is most likely a problem of too big fonts and an upstream bug ;) I added the -lfltk fix to the ebuild.
