The gtk+2 configure script tests for xrandr.pc version >=1.2.
On 10.5, this is always true if any 10.5 X11 is installed (on 10.4 with
Apple X11, it is not true, no xrandr.pc file present, randr.h version 1.1).
Here again the different cases on 10.5.5. There are actually only two
cases. The third intermediate one I have been seeing must come from
contamination by an old test of xquartz.
1. Apple X11 with xcode-3.0:
xrandr.pc version 1.2.2
randr.h and Xrandr.h are (c) 2002
randr.h does not define RRNotify
Xrandr.h does not define XRRNotifyEvent
gtk+2-2.14.3-1 does not build
2. Apple X11 with xcode-3.1.1, or xquartz version 2.3.1:
xrandr.pc version 1.2.3
randr.h and Xrandr.h are (c) 2006
randr.h defines RRNotify
Xrandr.h defines XRRNotifyEvent
(there are other differences in these files between xcode-3.1.1 and
xquartz, though)
gtk+2-2.14.3-1 builds
One cannot speak of a mismatch with the libXrandr.dylib version, because
in all of these cases, although libXrandr is present, the X server is
compiled *without* the RANDR extension anyway, so that the whole thing
won't work in any meaningful sense.
I still think it would be best to #undef HAVE_RANDR for the Fink package.
