9.5.1 completely fails to build under either i386 or x86_64 with the current version of gcc in core. This has been reported upstream. *** Bug 202818 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Is the upstream bug on a tracker we could watch (e.g. GCC's Bugzilla)? The only thing you can watch is the mailing lists. From what I can gather, the 8- branch is being depricated in favour of the 9 branch. Unfortunately, that builds happily on x86_64 but has "other" problems :-( I'm hoping I can get something out for the middle of next week, but it will only be the 9- branch. Yes, version 8 uses Motif widgets and the old rendering engine. Version 9 uses WX widgets and an OpenGL rendering engine (smooth fonts, better SVG). The v8 branch is retained as a low resource usage version, presumably for those with older hardware (or using graphics terminals). So unless you need v8 you would normally use v9. As far as I'm concerned, only v9 should be available from Extras, but both versions should work, i.e. if downloaded from source (or RPM?) from the W3C site. On FC6, nothing is working now. As this has been reported upstream, I wondered where the report was, etc., as Amaya is essential for me. If a fix is expected soon, that's great. Today's CVS code *builds* on FC6 (at least it did for me). However it doesn't run.
To build it I had to remove the flex-2.5.4a-41.fc5 RPM and install flex-2.5.33
from source.
When you launch it you get an initial message:
(amaya:7408): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_widget_set_colormap: assertion `!
GTK_WIDGET_REALIZED (widget)' failed
The window briefly appears then you get:
The program 'amaya' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)'.
(Details: serial 7271 error_code 8 request_code 143 minor_code 5)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error()
function.)
Just to confirm this bug, I get Gdk-ERROR **: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) serial 367 error_code 8 request_code 56 minor_code 0 On 2.6.17-1.2187_FC5 using amaya 9.5-1.fc5 (i386) from FC5 extras. Amaya is now a dead package. Closing the bug |
