Description Ryan Schmidt 2012-04-09 02:47:48 UTC 
glib 2.32.0 cannot be compiled on Mac OS X 10.4.11 Tiger with Xcode 2.5. It says:


gnextstepsettingsbackend.c: In function 'g_nextstep_settings_backend_get_g_variant':
gnextstepsettingsbackend.c:343: error: parse error before 'in'


Here is the MacPorts project's bug report about this problem, with a build log:

https://trac.macports.org/ticket/33934

Fixing this is rather important, because glib is a dependency of pkg-config, and pkg-config is a dependency of a whole lot of stuff.

glib 2.30.3 built fine on the same system.

Here is the patch we are now using to fix this:

Last call - I want to roll a 3.4.1 tarball tonight; if we want this fix included, it needs to get reviewed today.
Comment 3 fakey 2012-04-13 17:22:46 UTC 
I reviewed it, it's in commit 5739d896f8d3bf9883d4f5e4b7553a617a1c751a.
