Package: emacs
Version: 24.4.50
Severity: important
hydra os x builds are currently failing with:
Undefined symbols:
"_XRRGetCrtcInfo", referenced from:
_Fx_display_monitor_attributes_list in xfns.o
etc.
I think this is the first time it happened:
http://hydra.nixos.org/build/10792831 # trunk r117055
I think this is a due to a missing -lXrandr.
It looks like
pkg-config --libs "xrandr > 1.2.2"
returns "", but with exit status 0?
Compare with:
http://hydra.nixos.org/build/10778330 # trunk r117044
where the pkg-config query for xrandr failed, but the old-fashioned
fallback worked and added -lXrandr.

Yes; you can see config.log in the latest hydra build.
pkg-config --exists --print-errors "xrandr > 1.2.2"
returns 0, and
pkg-config --libs "xrandr > 1.2.2"
seems to return "".

Whereas in the latest emacs-24 branch config.log we see:
configure:14504: checking for xrandr >= 1.2.2
Package randrproto was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `randrproto.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
Package 'randrproto', required by 'Xrandr', not found
configure:14516: result: no

That only hits ancient versions of pkg-config, before 0.26. Do you
indeed have such an old version on Hydra?

It's not my version, but yes, it is 0.23.
Options to fix this are: to require pkg-config >= 0.26 in autogen.sh
(the requirement in configure would be unchanged);
or to copy a recent pkg.m4 into the m4 directory in the Emacs repo.

That's easy enough to try, so I did that in trunk bzr 117081. If it
doesn't work I suppose we can try one of the other possibilities.

This is going to break all hydra trunk builds (although they are broken
already due to no disk space right now...)
I have no way to update pkg-config on hydra, so would have preferred to
wait till someone replied to my
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/hydra-users/2014-05/msg00000.html
question.
Does configure.ac really need to require this version of pkg-config,
or just autogen.sh?

Ah, OK, I reverted the change then.

If the xrandr configuration is failing due to a bug in older pkg-config
versions, this suggests that configure.ac really needs the newer pkg-config.
I suppose we could go back to the emacs-24 way of doing things, and use
or own PKG_CHECK_MODULES macro.

But it's not failing in that way in the emacs-24 branch on hydra, which
also uses pkg-config 0.23. So the problem is in pkg.m4 that older
pkg-config supply, not the pkg-config program.
I think it's that they don't do the equivalent of
--exists && --cflags && --libs
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29801

I think this is equivalent to my suggestion of copying pkg.m4 from a
recent pkg-config into our m4 directory.
But assuming we can get a newer pkg-config on hydra, I think it would be
fine to require >= 0.26 in autogen.sh, and leave configure.ac alone.

Indeed. If worse comes to worst, you should be able to install pkg.m4
locally, no?

Locally where? I have no shell access to hydra.
I can only tweak the build recipe:

I'd prefer that too, but in the meantime, as we are already wrapping
PKG_CHECK_MODULES, our wrapper should be able to work around the
pkg--config bug. I gave that a shot in trunk bzr 117087.
If this sort of problem keeps cropping up, though, I'd rather that we
copy pkg.m4 into our m4 directory. We've spent a lot of time lately
working around pkg-config bugs....

Now the configure script runs this:
{/usr/bin/pkg-config --atleast-pkgconfig-version 0.26 ||
{/usr/bin/pkg-config --cflags "RSVG" "librsvg-2.0 >= 2.11.0" &&
/usr/bin/pkg-config --libs "RSVG" "librsvg-2.0 >= 2.11.0";}}
This causes ``configure: error:''. But should it be the following?
{/usr/bin/pkg-config --atleast-pkgconfig-version 0.26 ||
{/usr/bin/pkg-config --cflags "librsvg-2.0 >= 2.11.0" &&
/usr/bin/pkg-config --libs "librsvg-2.0 >= 2.11.0";}}

Thanks for catching that typo. I installed that fix in your name as
