Description Martin Andrews 2010-11-28 05:07:58 UTC
Description of problem:
The FC13 build of this driver no longer works with FC14

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
FC13 (not updated for FC14)

How reproducible:
yum upgrade of a FC13 box certainly has this problem.  Cannot verify for plain FC14 install

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Have working FC13 distro, including xorg-x11-drv-ivtv-1.1.1-1.fc13.i686
2.  yum --releasever=14 distro-sync --skip-broken
3.  startx
  
Actual results:
/var/log/Xorg.0.log contains :
dlopen: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/ivtv_drv.so: undefined symbol: miEmptyData

Expected results:
X starts normally

Additional info:
As can be seen in this X patch : 
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-commit/2010-June/025930.html

there has been a global rename of miEmptyData to RegionEmptyData (for example).  Instances of these driver globals are incorporated via includes.  The package just needs recompiling, and will work for FC14.

Simple test : 
grep -iR miemptydata /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/

should produce no results,

grep -iR regionemptydata /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/

should list all the drivers.

Re-Assigned, the wording of the said bug is quite different.
Actually It could have been solved the same as xorg-x11-drv-ivtv-1.1.1-2.fc14 was a rebuilt to fix this previous bug but wasn't actually pushed into the repository.
Rebuilt again to workaround the gcc bug also.

Comment 3 Nicolas Chauvet (kwizart) 2011-01-07 08:54:18 UTC
Updated package are in updates-testing, please give it karma.

The current pacakge in updates should already have fixed this specific bug, so closing to current.
