#1102: Missing dependency on containers package
----------------------------------+-----------------------------------------
Reporter: guest | Owner: somebody
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone:
Component: general (Gtk+, Glib) | Version: 0.9.12
Keywords: SPLIT_BASE |
----------------------------------+-----------------------------------------
Building programs leads to a link error due to missing dependency on the
`containers` package.
Gtk2hs version is 0.9.12.1 that comes with fedora8
GHC version: 6.8.1
Symptom: loading a Gtk2Hs file on the command line (without specifying a
package) leads to:
`Loading package base ... linking ... done.`
`[1 of 1] Compiling Main ( main.hs, interpreted )`
`Ok, modules loaded: Main.`
`*Main> main`
`Loading package mtl-1.1.0.0 ... linking ... done.`
`Loading package glib-0.9.12.1 ... linking ... done.`
`Loading package cairo-0.9.12.1 ... linking ... done.`
`Loading package gtk-0.9.12.1 ... linking ...`
`<interactive>: /usr/lib/ghc/6.8.1/gtk2hs/HSgtk.o: unknown symbol`
`'containerszm0zi1zi0zi0_DataziSequence_zgzl_info'`
`ghc-6.8.1: unable to load package 'gtk-0.9.12.1'`
It works if you add `-package containers` to the command line.
What happens is that `./configure` sets [EMAIL PROTECTED]@` for ghc
>=6.8 such that 'containers-VERSION' is in this variable. On the target
system `containers.0.1.0.0` is present, which should probably read
`containers-0.1.0.0`. Yet, this library does not find its way into the
dependency field of gtk2hs' package description: on the target system:
`ghc-pkg field gtk-0.9.12.1 depends`
`depends: base-3.0.0.0 mtl-1.1.0.0 glib-0.9.12.1 cairo-0.9.12.1`
I guess we should check if `containers` and its version detected correctly
during `./configure`.
