Description Tom Schoonjans 2017-01-05 07:05:49 UTC 
Hi,

After updating gdk-pixbuf to 2.36.3 in Homebrew, we saw a couple of failing tests like this:

/usr/local/Cellar/gwyddion/2.47_1/bin/gwyddion --version
dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/opt/gdk-pixbuf/lib/libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.0.dylib
  Referenced from: /usr/local/Cellar/gwyddion/2.47_1/bin/gwyddion
  Reason: Incompatible library version: gwyddion requires version 3602.0.0 or later, but libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.0.dylib provides version 3601.0.0

A little digging into configure.ac revealed this change in 9e87fc089b90a52fd1c2a26769c94dcd843f6a29

-m4_define([gdk_pixbuf_micro_version], [2])
-m4_define([gdk_pixbuf_interface_age], [0])
+m4_define([gdk_pixbuf_micro_version], [3])
+m4_define([gdk_pixbuf_interface_age], [3])

I think the problem here was the change in gdk_pixbuf_interface_age, which I don't think was justified since bug fix releases don't add API, and which led to the observed problem as lt_current depends on gdk_pixbuf_interface_age.

Thanks for looking into this.

Tom

I noted this in MacPorts too:

https://trac.macports.org/ticket/53334

I'm not familiar with gdk-pixbuf's code or build system, but I would appreciate a fix in the next release that solves this problem by causing the library version number to be larger than the one that was shipped in 2.36.2.

This is not mac-specific, definitely happening on linux too. CCing mclasen (I assume you get these anyway but ... just in case).


Documenting the versions as I understand them:

version | libtool version
2.36.0  | 0.3600.0
2.36.1  | 0.3601.0
2.36.2  | 0.3602.0
2.36.3  | 0.3600.3
2.36.4  | 0.3600.4

The original mistake happened in the first two updates to 2.36 (interface_age should have been bumped). But 2.36.3 shouldn't fix the earlier mistakes like that, right?


I'd add a patch except I'm not sure what the cleanest fix here is...
