>Number: 20874 >Category: ports >Synopsis: ports tree usage of gtk-config12 keeps ports from finding gtk related libs >Confidential: no >Severity: non-critical >Priority: low >Responsible: freebsd-ports >State: open >Quarter: >Keywords: >Date-Required: >Class: change-request >Submitter-Id: current-users >Arrival-Date: Sat Aug 26 16:40:02 PDT 2000 >Closed-Date: >Last-Modified: >Originator: Joe Orthoefer <joeo@nks.net> >Release: FreeBSD 5.0-CURRENT i386 >Organization: Networked Knowledge Systems >Environment: any recent ports tree >Description: lib-tool using ports that genereate a <portname<version>>-config executable make other ports unable to figure out that you have the library installed. >How-To-Repeat: A prime example is installing xscreensaver on a newly installed box. Ports will build glib and gtk for you but the configure script for xscreensaver fail to find them, as they are installed as /usr/local/bin/glib12-config and gtk12-config, keeping the xscreensaver-demo-Gtk executable from building. >Fix: Either fix the glib/gtk dependant ports to look for the gtk12-config type lib-tools or fix the libtool using ports to make them install symbolic links to the version of of the lib-config the port just installed. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
