Arch Linux User Repository

Updated

I resolved this issue. It appears a recent update to the gtkglext package caused the problem. I just downgraded the package via

pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/gtkglext-1.2.0-11-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

gtkglext-1.2.0-12 was the problem.

Hello,

I have an external catalog of widgets (LinuxCNC) that now breaks glade after a recent pacman -Syu. I get the following error:

Fatal Python error: can't initialize module gtk.gtkgl
Aborted (core dumped)

I can replicate this error simply by running python2:

>>> import gtk.gtkgl

My apologies if this is unrelated to this package. Anyone know what is going on?

Please update to the latest version 3.8.6, which contains some critical bug fixes.

http://ftp.acc.umu.se/pub/GNOME/sources/glade3/3.8/glade3-3.8.6.news

I've added some fixes for format-nonliteral string

@g99
this fix doesn't seem needed at all, the configure.ac already contains the gmodule-2.0.
Just compile your build in a clean chroot (extra-x86_64-build)

FIX for https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=665784 in file configure.ac : add gmodule-2.0

so section looks like:

dnl ================================================================
dnl Check for gtk+
dnl ================================================================
PKG_CHECK_MODULES(GTK, [gtk+-2.0 >= 2.24 gthread-2.0 gmodule-2.0 libxml-2.0 >= 2.4.0])
AC_SUBST(GTK_LIBS)
AC_SUBST(GTK_CFLAGS)


added explicit linking to gmodule-2.0


With that the package glade-gtk2 ( here: glade3-3.8.1 ) builds nicely if you run:


make clean
mv ./configure ./configure-broken
make configure
./configure
make
sudo make install ## you are done!
vr # to run visual ruby employing the glade-3 binary

The fix by leha200 to add "-lgmodule-2.0" compiler option after configure in src/glade3-3.8.1/Makefile and to add to LIBS variable: $(GNOME_LIBS)

does not work currently. The package is broken. Still same problem as 2012:

ld: glade_3-main.o: undefined reference to symbol 'g_module_supported'

For those of you who are interested, the glade-gtk2 AUR package now provides the latest version of Glade for GTK2.
I have requested that this package be deleted from AUR since it is a duplicate.

Disowned

Current version is 3.8.5

I'm the new maintainer of this package, and I've updated it to the latest version: 3.8.4

Been using slackware for the past few months and don't think i'm coming back to arch, making this an orphan so someone else can take over. Cheers!
