This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 39 development cycle. Changing version to 39.
This is a problem that only surfaces when one installs glibsystem-devel. With glibsystem-devel installed, the line about GISCAN is present: CCLD libglnx.la CCLD libgsystem.la GISCAN GSystem-1.0.gir src/gsystem-glib-compat.h:34: Warning: GSystem: symbol='g_clear_pointer': Skipping foreign symbol from namespace Gio /builddir/build/BUILD/libgsystem-2015.2/tmp-introspectlvqqyft1/GSystem-1.0.c: In function ‘dump_properties’: /builddir/build/BUILD/libgsystem-2015.2/tmp-introspectlvqqyft1/GSystem-1.0.c:229:7: error: ISO C90 forbids mixed declarations and code [-Werror=declaration-after-statement] 229 | const GValue *v = g_param_spec_get_default_value (prop); | ^~~~~ If glibsystem-devel is not installed, then GISCAN is skipped and no error occurs. Should the bug be reassigned?
And the following configure option sidesteps the problem: ./configure --enable-introspection=no I'm not sure of the impact of losing introspection. Colin, do you have any thoughts?
Added <walters> to CC list. According to <https://gitlab.gnome.org/Archive/libgsystem>, "There's no bugzilla component currently, please mail patches to: walters." Walters may be able to provide some insight into the way to fix this.
This package has changed maintainer in Fedora. Reassigning to the new maintainer of this component.
