cairo +quartz and gtk2 +quartz don't mix

[blair (Blair Zajac)]

Trying to compile the HEAD versions of cairo +quartz and gtk2 +quartz gets this compile error:

 gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../.. -DG_LOG_DOMAIN=\"Gdk\" -DGDK_COMPILATION -I../.. -I../../gdk -I../../gdk -DGDK_PIXBUF_DISABLE_DEPRECATED -DGDK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED -DG_DISABLE_CAST_CHECKS -D_REENTRANT -DXTHREADS -I/opt/local/include/glib-2.0 -I/opt/local/lib/glib-2.0/include -I/opt/local/include -I/opt/local/include/pango-1.0 -I/opt/local/include/cairo -I/opt/local/include/freetype2 -I/opt/local/include/libpng12 -I/usr/X11R6/include -xobjective-c -I/opt/local/include -no-cpp-precomp -DX_LOCALE -I/usr/X11R6/include -MT gdkdrawable-quartz.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/gdkdrawable-quartz.Tpo -c gdkdrawable-quartz.c  -fno-common -DPIC -o .libs/gdkdrawable-quartz.o

This on a 10.4 i386 box.

I recommend you speak with the developers of gtk2 about this. Quartz support in cairo is still experimental, and in fact was completely rewritten between 1.2.6 and 1.4.0, so it's certainly understandable that other software might not be able to link with it correctly. I added notes to the cairo portfile explaining the experimental nature of the quartz and atsui variants in r23732.

Is this related to or a duplicate of #11138?

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

#11138 was marked closed/fixed last month. Can you please retry with the current cairo and gtk2 ports and see if you still experience this issue?

[chris@…]

patch to gdkdrawable-quartz.c to chase cairo changes

[chris@…]

patch to Portfile to apply the gdkdrawable-quartz.c patch

[chris@…]

See attached patches, which fix the problem.

Oh, I filed a bug with gtk, ​http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=449611

They won't be fixing it in 2.10.x, but it may appear in 2.12.x.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Randall Wood now maintains gtk2, not Jim Mock.

[nox@…]

Why don't we add the patch to the port?

[rhwood@…]

I had been trusting that this would have been fixed in GTK 2.12.0, but it was not and has been committed in changeset:29117

GTK+ developers recommend building against Cairo from the head of the source code repository, so I do not know if this will work.

[rhwood@…]

If you drink coffee, don't try to fix ports while waiting for your first cup for the day to brew.

I had to revert changeset:29117 in changeset:29118 since the patch does not work correctly.

[rhwood@…]

I think that I have confirmed that gkt2 +quartz builds correctly, but do not know if it runs correctly. Can you please test and confirm or deny?

[mmoll@…]

It does seem to build without errors, but the gtk-demo program doesn't run:

gtk-demo

CGBitmapContextGetBitsPerPixel: invalid context cairo.c:91: failed assertion `status > CAIRO_STATUS_SUCCESS && status <= CAIRO_STATUS_LAST_STATUS' Abort trap

[rhwood@…]

Is this issue still alive with the current versions of gtk2 and cairo, or can I close it?

[rhwood@…]

Closing as this issue is OBE.
