Bug 644270 – media-libs/fontconfig-2.11.1-r2 - .../work/fontconfig-2.11.1/src/fcmatch.c:284:63: error: ‘PRI_CHAR_WIDTH_STRONG’ undeclared here (not in a function)

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED OBSOLETE

[Description Brian G. Olson 2018-01-11 22:54:34 UTC]

Fontconfig-2.11.1-r2 fails to compile with glibc 2.25+. This patch fixes the problem on my machine: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openembedded/openembedded-core/e82a7f879419828b42b5cc71e6229c8235090f21/meta/recipes-graphics/fontconfig/fontconfig/0001-Avoid-conflicts-with-integer-width-macros-from-TS-18.patch

FYI: I use this version of fontconfig because of bug #632106.

Please attach the full build log and the output of emerge --info.

[Comment 2 Tomáš Mózes 2018-01-12 03:34:25 UTC]

Does it work with 2.12.4? Since there are multiple versions of 2.12,please look into testing/fixing those.

[Comment 3 Brian G. Olson 2018-01-12 20:16:49 UTC]

Both fontconfig-2.12.4 and 2.12.6 work as is ( I didn't try 2.12.91 ). They already have the patch I linked to earlier applied, so they compile and install with no changes needed. I was actually using fontconfig-2.12.6 for a few days, until I figured out how to get fontconfig-2.11.1-r2 working again. I can include the build log and emerge --info later.

Patch for 2.11.1-r2

This is the actual patch I use in my local repository to get fontconfig-2.11.1-r2 to compile and install.

Still relevant? Seems like it isn't.
