Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: André Luís Lopes (andrelop-org) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Does not build under CentOS 5 Initial Comment: Hello, We have been trying com compile open-vm-tools under CentOS 5 (CentOS release 5.8 (Final)), x64_64. Initially we tried open-vm-tools-8.6.5-621624, using "--without-x --without-icu" parameters to configure. It errors out at "make", with the following error : vixTools.c: In function 'VixToolsListFiles': vixTools.c:5460: error: 'GRegex' undeclared (first use in this function) vixTools.c:5460: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once vixTools.c:5460: error: for each function it appears in.) vixTools.c:5460: error: 'regex' undeclared (first use in this function) cc1: warnings being treated as errors vixTools.c:5513: warning: implicit declaration of function 'g_regex_new' vixTools.c:5582: warning: implicit declaration of function 'g_regex_match' make[3]: *** [libvix_la-vixTools.lo] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/root/teste/open-vm-tools-8.6.5-621624/services/plugins/vix' make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/root/teste/open-vm-tools-8.6.5-621624/services/plugins' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/teste/open-vm-tools-8.6.5-621624/services' make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 Then we tried "open-vm-tools-2012.05.21-724730 (the latest snapshot available when we tried), using the same configure parameters, and we got the following errors : stateMachine.c: In function 'VmBackupStartCommon': stateMachine.c:688: warning: implicit declaration of function 'g_timeout_source_new_seconds' stateMachine.c:688: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast make[4]: *** [libvmbackup_la-stateMachine.lo] Error 1 make[4]: Leaving directory `/root/teste/open-vm-tools-2012.05.21-724730/services/plugins/vmbackup' make[3]: *** [all] Error 2 make[3]: Leaving directory `/root/teste/open-vm-tools-2012.05.21-724730/services/plugins/vmbackup' make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/root/teste/open-vm-tools-2012.05.21-724730/services/plugins' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/teste/open-vm-tools-2012.05.21-724730/services' make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 I see that there's a check in config.log checking for glib : configure:17212: checking for glib-2.0 >= 2.6.0 (via pkg-config) configure:17233: result: yes configure:17418: checking for gmodule-2.0 >= 2.6.0 (via pkg-config) configure:17439: result: yes configure:17624: checking for gobject-2.0 >= 2.6.0 (via pkg-config) configure:17645: result: yes configure:17830: checking for gthread-2.0 >= 2.6.0 (via pkg-config) configure:17851: result: yes configure:17940: checking for glib-genmarshal configure:17956: found /usr/bin/glib-genmarshal configure:17968: result: yes configure:18083: checking for glib-2.0 >= 2.14.0 (via pkg-config) configure:18113: result: no configure:18188: WARNING: glib is not recent enough, some features will be disabled. I have glib-2.12 installed (RPM packages glib2-2.12.3-4.el5_3.1 and glib2-devel-2.12.3-4.el5_3.1), which is the default glib version shipped with Red Hat 5/CentOS5. The README file in open-vm-tool's tarball says that Redhat Enterprise 5 (i386 & x86_64) was one of the platforms used to test this release so I thought it would be a good idea to report this issue.
