Yes, I caught the thread on that board. But didn't find the solution you
provided. Thanks! That was the /magic/ required to stop the whining offender
(gdkx.h). After some more research and investigation, this anomoly
appears to be a GTK/GD issue, and not X. I'm trying to figure out how to
get this #ifdef hack sucked in globally for the gtk/gd environment. I'm
/pretty/ sure gdkx.h will probably cover it. But would rather have it
sucked in from a seperate file. So as to not contaminate the actual header
file. I've cc'd the ports list, in hopes there is a better solution and
(even better) a newer version that resolves this problem.
Hi all,
interesting this is appearing ... I had this problem around 23rd of
march on my
laptop running 6-STABLE at the time. I am not sure if this is the
*same* issue,
BUT I think it went like this...
xproto's makefile says it conflicts with xorg-libraries-*
CONFLICTS= XFree86-libraries-* xorg-libraries-*
i think that I had installed by hand one of the X lib-packages and that had
made the whole problem. conflicting libraries and include files. I
removed all
the extra Xfree86 libs and Xorg, reinstalled Xorg and that was it.
I am not saying this is your problem... but it may be worth a try.
Xfree86 lib-packages that were installed in my system at the time:
libX11
libXau
libXcursor
libXdmcp
libXfixes
libXrender
xextensions
xproto
They definitely install files (under include and lib/ ) that xorg provides.
Thank you for your suggestion. But if I understand you correctly, I don't
think that I fall into this catagory. I installed with the Source Developer
option from the CD (no X, no Games). Then performed:
cvsup -g -L 2 /root/stable-src-supfile && \
cvsup -g -L 2 /root/ports-supfile && portsdb -uU && pkgdb -F
Then edited: /usr/sys/i386/conf/generic and saved to my custom config.
Performed a make buildworld,
make buildkernel
make installkernel
etc, etc...
Then I built the entire Xorg-6.9 server and libraries from source.
Everything worked/ performed as expected. I have not made anything
that required XFree86 (and friends) - it's purely Xorg.
But recently, I am recieving the error(s) mentioned /every/ time
I build anything that depends on GTK - /anything/. That's why I
was sure there is an issue in the GTK/GD source as provided in the
ports tree. I have no difficulties with anything unless GTK is involved.
Thanks again for your response.
