Description Fedora Release Engineering 2018-05-27 18:06:24 UTC 
libxfce4ui failed to build from source in Fedora 28

https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=27206352

For details on the mass rebuild see:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_28_Mass_Rebuild

Please fix libxfce4ui at your earliest convenience and set the bug's status to
ASSIGNED when you start fixing it. If the bug remains in NEW state for 8 weeks,
libxfce4ui will be orphaned. Before branching of Fedora 29,
libxfce4ui will be retired, if it still fails to build.

Comment 4 Raphael Groner 2018-05-27 18:48:46 UTC 
From build.log:
gtkdoc-mktmpl --module=libxfce4ui 
make[2]: gtkdoc-mktmpl: Command not found
make[2]: *** [Makefile:733: tmpl-build.stamp] Error 127

Missing BuildRequires? Better fix Makefile because upstream has finally removed and deprecated mktmpl.

A similiar bug existed in Debian:

Comment 5 Raphael Groner 2018-05-27 18:55:37 UTC 
README in gtk-doc: "Please use DoxBook XML instead of DocBook SGML - support for the later will be dropped."
Besides I don't know details what this means, someone should poke upstream and request a patch.
Comment 6 Mukundan Ragavan 2018-05-27 22:23:07 UTC 
The easiest way to fix this would be to remove --enable-gtk-doc during building.

This is already done in 4.13 releases.
Comment 7 Mukundan Ragavan 2018-05-27 22:24:46 UTC 
In 4.13.x, we have

"
gtkdoc-mkdb --module=libxfce4ui --output-format=xml --expand-content-files="" --main-sgml-file=libxfce4ui-docs.xml ${_source_dir} --sgml-mode --output-format=xml
"

Kevin, any objections if I remove --enable-gtk-doc?
Comment 8 Kevin Fenzi 2018-05-27 22:42:45 UTC 
go ahead. I tried some calls to gtkdocize to fix this, but it needs more than that, so sure,
Comment 9 Mukundan Ragavan 2018-05-28 02:54:54 UTC 
Fixed in rawhide (build should complete shortly). For F28, we can push the changes for F28 with the next update.
