Bug Description

Using Ubuntu 10.10.

/usr/lib/libgdkglextmm-x11-1.2.la and /usr/lib/libgtkglextmm-x11-1.2.la both contain references to a non-existent libtool archive "libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.la", causing compilation using libtool to fail when using gtkglextmm:

  libtool: link: cannot find the library `/usr/lib/libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.la' or unhandled argument `/usr/lib/libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.la'

This can be fixed either by updating the offending libtool archives (replace the libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.la reference with -lgdk_pixbuf-2.0 in the "dependency_libs" field) or by providing the missing the libtool archive. I assume a simple rebuild of the gtkglextmm package would produce correct libtool archives.

The bug was originally reported to me here: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=BCFD8C56-4F49-4D3A-B172-D37AF0BEAA25%40cs.bham.ac.uk&forum_name=peekabot-devel

I can also confirm this bug. /usr/lib/libinfgtk-0.4.la and /usr/lib/libinftextgtk-0.4.la have /usr/lib/libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.la as a dependency. This prevents gedit-collaboration compiling.

Assuming that the removal of libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.la was intentional, this sounds like it should have a separate bug report since it affects a different package.

To rebuild gtkglextmm with gtkmm 2.22 a small patch have to be applied, I'll link a branch when it's ready.

When this bug is fixed a no-change rebuild of python-visual is needed to fix bug 664284

Also, to fix this bug in maverick we have to patch gtkmm sources so they undef GDK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED at the right time AND apply this patch to the gtkglextmm maverick source - I will take a look at it later.

This bug was fixed in the package gtkglextmm - 1.2.0-4ubuntu2

---------------
gtkglextmm (1.2.0-4ubuntu2) natty; urgency=low

  * Include widget.h before gtkglext.h so GdkSpanFunc is defined (LP: #662572)
