Description Joe Orton 2004-04-21 12:29:39 UTC
I've got a script which checks for symbols which are defined more than
once in shared objects, which is usually a bug:

$ nm -D
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.3/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/Gnome/Gnome.so
| grep ' B '
00094aa8 B GTK_TYPE_CLOCK_TYPE
00094ab0 B GTK_TYPE_GNOME_MDI_MODE
00094aa4 B GTK_TYPE_GNOME_UI_INFO_TYPE
00094aac B GTK_TYPE_GNOME_UI_PIXMAP_TYPE

are also defined in libgnomeui.so.32.

$ nm -D /usr/lib/libgnomeui.so.32 | grep GTK_TYPE_GNOME_MDI_MODE
0087eba4 B GTK_TYPE_GNOME_MDI_MODE

etc.

$ rpm -qf /usr/lib/libgnomeui.so.32
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.3/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/Gnome/Gnome.so
gnome-libs-1.4.1.2.90-37
Gtk-Perl-0.7008-36.1

Hi Joe, is this still an issue in rawhide?


Comment 2 Bill Nottingham 2006-08-08 01:11:57 UTC
Gtk-Perl is no longer shipped in any supported Fedora release, so I don't think
we're going to fix this...
