Description Yanko Kaneti 2005-10-29 02:33:46 UTC
Description of problem:
mail-notification 2.0-5 aborts on Edit->Preferences with:

mail-notification-CRITICAL **: signal handler
"mn_properties_dialog_remove_clicked_h" not found
aborting...

The gist of it is that since glib2 removed -Wl,--export-dynamic from
gmodule-2.0.pc libglade cannot glade_xml_signal_autoconnect

for more info on this
(http://mail.gnome.org/archives/desktop-devel-list/2005-January/msg00037.html)

Some ways to fix it, from short and dirty to more elaborate:
- export CFLAGS="-Wl,--export-dynamic" before the build
- patch mail-notification to explicitly require gmodule-export-2.0
- patch mail-notification to not use glade_xml_signal_autoconnect

Comment 1 Yanko Kaneti 2005-10-29 03:56:43 UTC
Hm, my slightly bad, actually gmodule-2.0 still contains export-dynamic, but the
gtk stack has changed to using gmodule-no-export-2.0

Comment 2 Thorsten Leemhuis 2005-11-05 20:39:14 UTC
thx for the report. Updated mail-notification was build and should be pushed out
soon. I used "export CFLAGS="-Wl,--export-dynamic" for now and hope to fix that
correctly later.
