Bug 60580 – Keyword: dev-libs/glib-1.2.10-r5

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: VERIFIED FIXED

[Description Robin Munn 2004-08-16 12:24:05 UTC]

The glib-1.2.10-r5 ebuild doesn't produce shared libraries on macos, because the ltconfig that's included in the glib-1.2.10.tar.gz tarball is version 1.3.4 and doesn't know about the "darwin" operating system type, so it defaults to ld_shlibs=no.

http://fink.sourceforge.net/files/ltconfig and http://fink.sourceforge.net/files/ltmain.sh do know about the darwin OS. When I replace the default ltconfig and ltmain.sh in the glib package with these, it compiles just fine *with* shared libraries, and everything's peachy.

What I did was download those two files to my home directory, then add the following three lines to my glib-1.2.10-r5 ebuild, right before the end of src_unpack():

        ewarn Replacing ltconfig and ltmain.sh with fink versions...
        cp /Users/rmunn/ltconfig ${S}
        cp /Users/rmunn/ltmain.sh ${S}

Obviously something more generic would need to go into the official ebuild.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~macos" emerge -av =dev-libs/glib-1.2.10-r5
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
glib compiled and installed, but only with static libraries.

Expected Results:  
Both static and shared libraries should have installed. The fix I describe above
does indeed do this.

!!! Using `which gcc` to gcc locate version, this may break
!!! DISTCC, installing gcc-config and setting your current gcc
!!! profile will fix this

up to osx to suggest an acceptable fix.

[Comment 2 Mamoru KOMACHI (RETIRED) 2004-08-23 12:45:46 UTC]

How about putting ltmain.sh and ltconfig ('s diff) to ${PORTDIR}/eclass/ELT-patches/darwin and apply them if shared libraries are not created? (This is similar to what Fink, yet another Mac OS X package management system does)

[Comment 3 Pieter Van den Abeele (RETIRED) 2004-09-24 19:01:21 UTC]

Depending on Gentoo/MacOS design issue: 65272

[Comment 4 Mamoru KOMACHI (RETIRED) 2004-10-10 10:31:32 UTC]

Fixed in CVS.

[Comment 5 Roman Dilken 2004-11-03 06:16:28 UTC]

there should be darwintoolize in the ebuild...

Closing out bugs that've been resolved for a while now...
