evince fails to build (blocking gnome-desktop-suite)

[tw.lbean@…]

The only other reference I could find on this issue was at: ​https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince-gtk/+bug/89825

It's not clear to me what the issue is, but here's the output of the build:

--- Making all in help xsltproc -o evince-fi.omf --stringparam db2omf.basename evince --stringparam db2omf.format 'docbook' --stringparam db2omf.dtd "-OASISDTD DocBook XML V4.1.2EN" --stringparam db2omf.lang fi --stringparam db2omf.omf_dir "/opt/local/share/omf" --stringparam db2omf.help_dir "/opt/local/share/gnome/help" --stringparam db2omf.omf_in "pwd/./evince.omf.in" /opt/local/bin/pkg-config --variable db2omf gnome-doc-utils fi/evince.xml db2omf: Could not construct the OMF maintainer element.

Add an author, corpauthor, editor, othercredit, or publisher element with the role attribute set to "maintainer" to evince.xml.

This problem is due to a missing "maintainer" attribute on line 63 of the file "evince-0.6.1/help/C/evince.xml". Other localized files have this attribute attached to the author element on line 63 (e.g. .../help/es/evince.xml).

This appears to be an upstream bug.

[tw.lbean@…]

Patch to evince-0.6.1/C/evince.xml to enable building

[rhwood@…]

I have upgraded evince to 0.8.0 in changeset:23139 (without applying your patch, since I was unable to recreate your error)

Please let me know if this upgrade does or does not address the issue. If not, then I'll try the patch and report it to the upstream maintainers.

[tw.lbean@…]

Builds successfully with the new version

[rhwood@…]

Seems to work.
