Does not force -I/opt/fdo/include (1.80 KB, patch)

Description Daniel Macks 2006-05-15 22:44:20 UTC 
Why is -I/opt/fdo/include being added to my compiler commands? It's clearly not because a needed support library was found there, as I have no such directory. Looks like it's from configure.in:

DEPS_CFLAGS="-I /opt/fdo/include $DEPS_CFLAGS"

But looking at configure, I see that -I is also added to CFLAGS as a intentional effect of a test for the various X11 extensions (XDAMAGE, etc). Why? If there's something needed, look for it; if it's sometimes not in a place that is usually searched, add it to the places that are searched. Blinding adding paths, especially "high" in the CFLAGS -I list, is a bad idea. On another system, I have a shadow OS installed there with non-standard versions of libraries installed, and I certainly don't want to use them.

I really think that this can be a mistake. By the way, attached is a patch that remove these /opt/fdo/include

Comment 3 bill.haneman 2006-07-20 22:09:03 UTC 
This was a hack to support the old freedesktop.org x server.  It's no longer needed (though it would indeed be harmless on most configurations).
Comment 4 Carlos Eduardo Rodrigues Diógenes 2006-07-21 00:01:00 UTC 
Fixed in the development version. The fix will be available in the next major release. Thank you for your bug report.
