Description Lionel Landwerlin 2009-07-13 19:01:10 UTC

Hi,

currently it's not possible to reconfigure libglib2.

The main problem is gtk-doc. You can find a patch to fix the problem. Cairo has a similar patch.

Regards,

Lionel

Why is the patch applied to the dbus-glib package to fix an issue in libglib2 ?

Is this patch upstream ?

It's 2 commit from upstream (ea536503331aea875e84ae598b4610fbd059f167)

http://git.gnome.org/cgit/glib/commit/?id=ea536503331aea875e84ae598b4610fbd059f167 doesn't seem to exist. Am I looking at the wrong place ?

I was giving you a buildroot hash, I think you missed something.

Most of packages using gtk-doc (libglib2, libgtk2, etc...) to generate their documentation need the gtk-doc m4 macros to be reconfigured. This patch adds the gtk-doc m4 that are not available because gtk-doc is not a part of buildroot.

No, I don't think so. When I asked if this patch was upstream, I was asking if the patch has been integrated in glib2 by glib2 developers in the official version, of if it was in the process of being integrated.

I was referring to this meaning of upstream: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upstream_%28software_development%29

Thanks for your contribution!
