Package: libglib2.0-0 Version: 2.20.1-1 Severity: wishlist refdbg[0] fails to work with the library in libglib2.0-0 as it was built with --enable-visibility. This is clearly what GLib apps should be using, but it would be cool if another refdbg-specific package was made available which was built with --disable-visibility.
I asked about this on #gnome-debian: 21:18 < jonnylamb> So, refdbg is rather annoying to use because you have to build your own glib. Might the glib maintainers consider building glib twice: once with --disable-visibility so it can be used with refdbg with the help of LD_PRELOAD? 21:23 <@Np237> jonnylamb: that requires a new flavor and a new binary package 21:23 < jonnylamb> Yes. 21:24 <@Np237> feasible, but it would be nice if you could provide a patch 21:24 <@Np237> as you seem better suited to be able to test it 21:24 < jonnylamb> Right. I'm willing to write a patch if there's a possibility of it getting accepted. 21:25 <@Np237> if it’s just a new flavor that ships files in a special directory for LD_PRELOAD, in a special package, I’m fine with that 21:26 <@Np237> that could even be used as a dependency for a refdbg package which would use it automatically 21:26 < jonnylamb> Right. Just what I had in mind. 21:27 <@Np237> you can ask lool or slomo to see if they have any objections, but I doubt that 21:27 < jonnylamb> lool: ^ I'm working on a patch. 0. http://refdbg.sourceforge.net/ -- Jonny Lamb, UK jo...@debian.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
