Re: [Ltib] [Patch] Spport for GTK2 to be compiled with X11 or DirectFB

[Rogério de Souza Moraes]

Hi Stuart,

while I was testing the modifications provided for this patch, I discovered that the support for X11 in gtk2, pango and cairo(this is new) doesn't work, because by the solution you told me, to compile these packages with X11 support, the xorg-server package needs to be installed before the compilation of them. 

Looking at pkg_map, the gtk2, pango and cairo are installed before the xorg-server, so I need to change the order of packages in this file (taking care about dependencies), to make the xorg-server be installed before these packages. Can I change the order of the packages in pkg_map or do you know a better way to solve this problem?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Stuart,

I did another patch using your sugestion. It enables gtk2 and pango to be compiled with X11 support.

Best regards.

Hi Rogerio,

I don't think the variable PKG_XORG_SERVER gets exported to the build environment.  However all the _WANT_ symbols do.

There is a symbol: PKG_XORG_SERVER_WANT_XORG which indicates you're building the real X server rather than the X frame buffer server.  Would this be the right thing to use?

If not, rather than add another environment variable to ltib, it would be better to do the test in a similar way to how it's done in xorg-server.spec, something like:

if rpm --dbpath %{_dbpath} -q xorg-server &>/dev/null
then
   extra_opts='--with-x'
else
   extra_opts='--without-x'
fi

In this case if the xorg-server package is built & installed in either mode (frame-buffer or full X) then --with-x gets set.

Regards, Stuart
