Hello,
packaging of gtk+-3.10.0 is making progress. It compiles, and I think
only a few tests reading in /etc need to be disabled.
After that, to be in line with our general policy of trying to use the
latest versions of software, I think we should rename the variable gtk+
to gtk+-2, and call gtk+ the version 3.10.0. Then all packages requiring
gtk+ will be recompiled using 3.10.0; if this fails, we will need to adapt
the package inputs.
What do you think?
Andreas

Cool! What kind of files are these? For /etc/{services,protocols,rpc},
you could use net-base.

Sounds like a plan. What about making the switch in a branch, and
adding a jobset on Hydra for that branch? That way, if there’s too much
breakage, that allows things to be fixed calmly.
Thanks,

The error messages are as follows:
D-Bus library appears to be incorrectly set up; failed to read
machine uuid: Failed to open "/etc/machine-id": No such file or
directory. See the manual page for dbus-uuidgen to correct this issue.

That would have made sense, but so far, we have only seven packages using
gtk+ (two if which, racket and xnee, turn out to also work with gtk+-3),
so I tested them by hand and just pushed the patch.

Blech, what’s this file? I don’t feel the need for another unique
identifier for my machine. ;-)
Anyway, we probably can’t do much other than skipping these tests.

OK, makes sense (somehow I thought we had plenty of GUI packages ;-)).
So that means GTK+ 3 actually works, right? That’s cool!

This is a good question, since none of the packages I am interested in
uses gtk+ so far. But I am working on packaging one ;-)
I tried to use the slideshow binary from the racket package; it fails with
ffi-lib: couldn't open "libgdk-x11-2.0.so.0" (libgdk-x11-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)
context...:
So it also requires gtk+-2; apparently an error in the configure script.
I will also revert this back.
xnee has only one binary, cnee, which fails for me with
Error number: 6
Error: Wrong paramters
Description: You have given invalid input to Xnee
Argument: (NO ARG)
At least, it does not look gtk+-related. On the other hand, "ldd cnee"
does not show anything gtk+-related either, nor does "guix gc --references";
so maybe the input gtk+ is not actually used at all?
So we should call for people to package gtk+-3 applications!

I think Xnee has an optional gnee program (or something like that) that
provides a GTK+ GUI. But maybe it explicitly checks for gtk+-2.0 and
just disables that when that is not found?
I’ll check if Geeqie works and report back.

Geeqie does not compile, whence commit 8b0275b6443.

Even with gtk+-2, configure ends like this:
Building the following components
-------------------------------------
cli
Excluding the following components
-------------------------------------
doc (docs are already included in dist file)
gnee
pnee
The configure phase prints a line
checking for gtk-config... no
Apparently, the program needs gtk1... See also
http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?33666
I suggest to drop the input.
