I just did some more work on this as I had another system where it was
building fine. While the code generating the errors was only compiled
when graphviz is installed, it is ALSO only compiled when goocanvas is
installed. While I need graphviz, I don't know why goocanvas was
installed. It had only two packages that depended on it, ruby18-gnome2
and ruby18-goocanvas.

I deleted all three packages and libgda4 now builds fine.

I suspect that either something I had installed used to need
ruby8-goocanvas or I have deleted whatever package caused them to be
installed.

This does not mean the problem is fixed, of course. If built on a
system where goocanvas is required, the issue remains. Clearly the
graphviz ABI has changed at some time and libgda4 no longer will work
with it. If I have some time I may see if I can find a fix, but I'll
admit that now that I don't need it fixed, I may not get far.
