https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=202083 Bug ID: 202083 Summary: print/freetype2: ftconfig.h TYPEOF shadows other TYPEOFs Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: gnome@FreeBSD.org Reporter: rhurlin@gwdg.de Flags: maintainer-feedback?(gnome@FreeBSD.org) Assignee: gnome@FreeBSD.org Created attachment 159544 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=159544&action=edit patch to change TYPEOF into FT_TYPEOF I had some trouble trying to build the package 'Cairo-1.5.8.tar.gz' [1] for math/R. It turns out, that there is an underlying problem with print/freetype2 (thanks to Simon Urbanek from the R Project for his help on this). In [2] Tim Smith explained, that "ftconfig.h exports a TYPEOF macro that can conflict with and shadow macros with the same name in client applications. This breaks building the current version of the R programming language interpreter against the current version of freetype when cairo support is enabled (though R only uses freetype if pango support is disabled). It would be nice if the macro was called FT_TYPEOF or something similar." This work is done on the GitHub master of freetype2, but not released until now [3]. I filed a patch against freetype2 version 2.6 in the ports tree, which only changes TYPEOF() into FT_TYPEOF(). No other commits of the freetype2 master on GitHub are included. So this patched port should have no functional changes, except the TYPEOF() problem.
