Submission from: (NULL) (207.222.50.243)
The libstroke library was recently updated to v 0.5. fvwm-2.4.0 builds
just fine with v 0.4 but does not build with v 0.5. Both versions of
the libstroke library are available at
http://www.etla.net/~willey/projects/libstroke
The problem is that libstroke-0.4 defines MAX_SEQUENCE but libstroke-0.5
instead defines STROKE_MAX_SEQUENCE and GSTROKE_MAX_SEQUENCE. The one we
want for fvwm is STROKE_MAX_SEQUENCE.
If I patch fvwm/bindings.c, fvwm/builtins.c, and fvwm/events.c to replace
MAX_SEQUENCE with STROKE_MAX_SEQUENCE, then fvwm-2.4.0 builds just fine.
(I'm happy to acknowledge assistance from Dan Nicolaescu, one of the
libstroke maintainers, in figuring out this patch.)
For the distribution, this kind of patching is not enouth: some kind of
testing will need to be done to determine which version of libstroke is
present. I don't have enough autoconf skills to suggest how this should
be done.
