Description idmiddle 2003-05-10 18:13:46 UTC 
The libraries `src/app-file/libgncmod-app-file.la' and 
`src/app-file/gnome/libgnc-app-file-gnome.la' are mutually dependent.  
(This is in version 1.8.2.)

Namely, the library `src/app-file/libgncmod-app-file.la' needs the symbols 
`gnc_history_add_file', `gnc_history_get_last', and `gnc_file_dialog' from 
the library `src/app-file/gnome/libgnc-app-file-gnome.la'; and conversely, 
the latter library needs `gnc_file_open_file' from the former.

Found this while trying to build on Cygwin, where all symbols must be 
resolved when linking shared libraries (see my post to gnucash-devel).  
Since `src/app-file/Makefile' has the line

SUBDIRS = gnome . test

I'm guessing that `src/app-file/gnome/libgnc-app-file-gnome.la' should not 
be dependent on `src/app-file/libgncmod-app-file.la'.
Comment 1 idmiddle 2003-05-12 20:21:34 UTC 
My proposed solution: move `src/app-file/gnc-file.c' into the gnome 
library `src/app-file/gnome/libgnc-app-file-gnome.la'.

I'll submit a patch later which includes all of the changes I've made 
for compiling on Cygwin.

This has been fixed at some point and doesn't occur in the current SVN,
http://gnomesupport.org/wiki/index.php/GnuCashSvn, does it?
