Description Matthias Clasen 2004-11-17 05:03:53 UTC 
atk currently requires gmodule-2.0.pc, which injects --export-dynamic into 
the link lines. That is not a nice thing for libraries. The gtk and pango
configure scripts contain sed hackery to remove the flag from the link lines,
but starting with 2.5.7 glib will offer a much simpler solution in the form of
a gmodule-no-export-2.0.pc file which doesn't inject --export-dynamic into 
the link lines to begin with. 

I don't know if you want to bump the glib requirement for that, but if you 
want, here is a patch.

Thanks for the patch.

I branched atk for gnome-2-8 and then committed the patch to CVS HEAD.
Comment 3 bill.haneman 2005-04-22 13:35:06 UTC 
Padraig - are you sure we wanted to do this?  It means that ATK HEAD won't work
with older gtk+/glib, which is a problem for us.

Personally I'd rather revert this dependency change.
Comment 4 padraig.obriain 2005-04-22 13:44:45 UTC 
I have no strong views on this. Revert if you want.
