comment:1 Changed 15 years ago by vinc17@…

This was under Mac OS X 10.4.11. I've looked as the preprocessed output, and the problem is that XRRScreenResources is never defined. This seems to be the same problem as http://live.gnome.org/JhbuildIssues/gnome-desktop. It is said that libXrandr >= 1.2 is needed.

comment:2 in reply to:  1 Changed 15 years ago by kschombu@…

I am experiencing the same problem and I have libXrandr 2.1.0 installed. When I try to compile gnome-rr.c using the command in the original post I get exact same errors.

However, when installing gnome-desktop via the port command I get a different set of errors:

Here's the upstream gnome bug.

I will attempt to install a newer X Server to solve this.

comment:7 Changed 15 years ago by pgijnxn02@…

Alas, it appears there's no way to upgrade the X Server in Tiger. Is that correct?

gnome-desktop 2.23.3 Portfile

comment:8 Changed 15 years ago by pgijnxn02@…

Since eel requires at least gnome-desktop 2.23.3, here's a Portfile to use as a workaround. The only changes I've made from the 2.22.3 Portfile are the version number and the checksum.

comment:9 in reply to:  description Changed 15 years ago by lists@…

I'm experiencing the same thing on Leopard 10.5.5.

I've replaced the portfile with the attached one, and get:

Unable to execute port: extra characters after close-quote

The error with the official Portfile:

Installing version 2.3.1 of XQuartz on my MBP running OSX 10.5.5 has fixed the problem for me, but I guess this isn't really helpful for Tiger users...

This bug is still present in 2.24.1 ... which I would expect since the upstream bug is still unresolved.

comment:18 in reply to:  17 Changed 15 years ago by macports@…

Bug still present for me. Attached ports file fixed issue for me.

comment:19 Changed 15 years ago by bluegod@…

I had the same issue, solved with the attached port file (but that means downgrade gnome!)

Does installing xorg-randrproto help at all?

comment:21 Changed 15 years ago by pgijnxn02@…

Installing xorg-randrproto did not solve it for me.

Several months have passed. It is looking doubtful that upstream will backport to support older X servers.

Since we have little control over our X servers, I think unfortunately there is no choice but to downgrade gnome-desktop until every version of OSX that we support has an X server with XRandR 1.2. Or until upstream fixes this, if they ever do.

Perhaps there is some other solution, using variants or something. It sounds tricky to me though.

This has been blocking other ports for a long time. We need to take some action now to clear up the logjam.

IMHO, it's more a problem with an X library than with an X server: the X server can be on a remote machine (which is not necessarily a Mac OS X machine), and I don't see how a remote machine can affect the build of a MacPorts port. Now, if we do not control the X server, perhaps we can control the libraries, e.g. how about all those xorg* ports?

Yes, it was outdated.
