[thunar] ‘XA_CARDINAL’ undeclared

[rudloff@…]

I get an error when trying to build Thunar 1.0.2 on Tiger (Intel).

[afb@…]

:debug:main gtk2 2.24.7_0 +no_x11+quartz is active

Running Thunar with the Quartz GDK is not supported, you'll need the X11 GDK variant of GTK+.

(Patches accepted.)

[afb@…]

Something like this patch will fix the reported error, but might not be enough to run...

[rudloff@…]

FYI, with the patch, I am now getting this :

:info:build /usr/libexec/gcc/i686-apple-darwin8/4.0.1/ld: Undefined symbols:
:info:build _GDK_SCREEN_XDISPLAY
:info:build _GDK_SCREEN_XNUMBER

Log with patch

[afb@…]

Right, if you don't have X11 you'll also need to disable startup-notification:

variant quartz conflicts x11 {
    configure.args-delete --enable-startup-notification
    configure.args-append --disable-startup-notification
    depends_lib-delete    port:startup-notification
}

But there are still no guarantees that Thunar/Xfce will ever work without X11...

Here is another log.

Replying to rudloff@…:

Here is another log.

874	:info:build twp-provider.c:26:22: error: gdk/gdkx.h: No such file or directory

Sounds like configure.args-append --disable-wallpaper-plugin for +quartz

[rudloff@…]

Thunar builds just fine with that. Thanks ! Here is the patch to add the quartz variant.

Fixed, r87362.
