Description Chun Fong 2001-01-27 19:47:08 UTC
Package: GTK+
Version: 1.2.6

OS: AIX 4.3.3
GUI: X11 R6.3
Compiler: IBM xlC 3.6.4


GTK+ 1.2.6 works fine on AIX 4.3.3 using IBM's xlC 
compiler ( NOT GNU's GCC ). 


there are some things to do though in order to 
make gtk to work:

for glib 1.2.6:
 run configure as: configure --enable-ansi \
  --enable-mem-check --enable-debug=yes  \ 
  --enable-mem-profile  --enable-static  \
  --enable-shared=no 

 and then change (edit) the config.h 
 to comment out  HAVE_GETPWUID_R ( undefine it )
 Otherwise, the getpwuid_r() function causes
 segmentation fault in gutil.c file.


As for gtk+ 1.2.6:

 use same configure flags as above for glib 1.2.6.

 Make sure that AIX system have the X11 Xmu 
 include files.
 If not, grab the Xmu include files from
 X11R6.3 or X11R6.4 distribution tar files.

I'm going to say that this is a problem with the GNU toolchain
(libtool, automake, gcc) not figuring out how to behave properly on
AIX, so not a GTK bug.
