Description Mukundan Ragavan 2019-12-08 13:10:20 UTC
Please build this package for EPEL-8.

I am in the process of bringing Xfce 4.14 to EPEL-8 and this package is a dependency.

I am submitting requests for other dependencies as well.

COPR repo where I am testing how the packages build is

Comment 2 Peter Robinson 2019-12-09 07:36:18 UTC
Are you sure it actually needs all of these? I would be quite shocked if there were deps on ORBit2/libbonobo and a number of the others. And I suspect libxml2 and some of the others are part of RHEL-8

Comment 3 Mukundan Ragavan 2019-12-09 10:17:42 UTC
It is not a direct dependency. It's in the chain of dependencies.

glade3 is the only one I really need. Everything else is needed to build glade3.

I believe the dep chain is 

glade3 --> libgnomeui --> {keyring,canvas ...} --> vfs2 --> avahi ........libbonobo.

Let me look at the build logs about libxml2. I remember having some issue with libxml2.

Comment 4 Peter Robinson 2019-12-09 23:07:23 UTC
So please just build glade3 without that functionality rather than cargo culting a bunch of ancient unmaintained packages for the life of el8

yeah, that's what I have decided on. Had to get a bit of history about glade3 support. I will close this request.
