Description Matt McCutchen 2008-10-20 00:50:59 UTC

Description of problem:
I am using Fedora 9 but wanted to use the rawhide version of Evolution because it contains several bug fixes that are important to me, so I installed/upgraded the minimum required set of packages and attempted to "rpmbuild --rebuild evolution-2.24.0-3.fc10.src.rpm".  The build failed with this error:

It appears that Evolution is using gtkhtml3, which relies on a glib function "d_gettext" that was only added in glib 2.18 (see http://library.gnome.org/devel/glib/stable/glib-I18N.html#g-dgettext ), but I still had the Fedora 9 glib 2.16 installed.  To avoid this, gtkhtml3-3.24.0-1.fc10.i386 should require glib2 >= 2.18 or something equivalent.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gtkhtml3-3.24.0-1.fc10.i386
glib2-2.16.6-1.fc9.i386

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. On Fedora 9, install the listed gtkhtml3 and glib2 packages and all other build requirements of evolution-2.24.0-3.fc10.src.rpm .
2. rpmbuild --rebuild evolution-2.24.0-3.fc10.src.rpm

Actual results:
Build error shown above.

Expected results:
An RPM dependency clues me in that I shouldn't be using glib2-2.16.6-1.fc9.i386.

Comment 1 Matthew Barnes 2008-10-21 16:17:08 UTC

Hmm, that's strange.  GtkHtml uses dgettext(), not g_dgettext().
Not sure why it would be referencing a function it doesn't use.

Before I bump the requirement and close the bug, I'd like to try to understand why this is happening.

CC'ing mclasen for his thoughts.

Comment 2 Bug Zapper 2008-11-26 04:01:08 UTC

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 10 development cycle.
Changing version to '10'.

Comment 3 Matthew Barnes 2009-01-27 17:28:45 UTC

The Rawhide version of GtkHtml requires GTK+ 2.14 these days, which in turn requires GLib >= 2.17.x, so this should be resolved now.
