glib 1.2.10

Postby psyba » Fri Oct 26, 2001 11:48 pm

While trying to compile GAIM, I needed to get GTK and Glib, but the ones here aren't really working for me... So i am trying to compile the latest builds myself. I get GTK to compile fine if I skip the glib test with the glib binary here, but I get some error about -ldl that installs with glib? when trying to compile GAIM and with GTK with the glib test? Anyways, i get this error when I 'make' glib:

<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">code:</font><HR><pre> /bin/sh ./libtool --mode=compile gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I. -DG_LOG_DOMAIN=g_log_domain_glib -g -O2 -Wall -c giounix.c

The answer is the very first problem listed on http://macosx.forked.net/comp.html .

Not quite... the error that the fix is listed for is "Undefined Macro argument list", and the fix (--no-cpp-precomp) has no effect on the "bad macro argument list" encountered in the glib-1.2.10 install. I've run into it, too.

Note that --no-cpp-precomp is listed in the compile statement.

Solved!

Although I was never able to get "--no-cpp-precomp" to work, adding "--traditional-cpp" to CFLAGS allows compilation to proceed, though at a noticably slower rate.

Interestingly, I have since run into other programs with "bad macro argument list" errors, but --no-cpp-precomp has worked fine on them.

Editing the CFLAG in the Makefile didn't work for me, (probably multiple entries?). I had to set the CFLAG before the ./configure like so:

env CFLAGS=-no-cpp-precomp ./configure

I was then able to compile pkgconfig-0.12.0 without a problem.

thanks for your help all
