Description
gpsbabel comes with a gui, see http://www.gpsbabel.org/screenshots.html
However there is something weird about our configuration. qmake pull in some undeclared dependencies on Qt5 ports, but on the other hand it doesn't really install anything (see also #47759) and it doesn't seem to build an app. There is an xcodeproject and a bunch of other stuff in the sources that I didn't try to fully explore yet. In Makefile.in there's a target mac-gui for example.
I believe that dependencies should be resolved and a gui should be provided, either as a variant or as a subport (maybe subport gpsbabel-gui would be better?).

comment:4 follow-up: 5 Changed 8 years ago by mojca (Mojca Miklavec)
I get an app if I use +gui, but why do you need dependency on Qt4 or Qt5 when there is no app?
The following is also slightly debatable, but I'll try to figure out if I can come up with a better proposal:
if { ${os.major} < ${qt5_min_tested_version} } {
default_variants-append +qt4
} ...
Qt5 is somewhat problematic on libstdc++ only, so maybe this if should check what the default stdlib is set to as well.

Replying to mojca@…:

+gui, but why do you need dependency on Qt4 or Qt5 when there is no app?
As noted previously, the non-gui program uses it.
Why exactly, I could not say.
Qt does have other features (file IO, networking, etc.).
The following is also slightly debatable, but I'll try to figure out if I can come up with a better proposal:
if { ${os.major} < ${qt5_min_tested_version} } { default_variants-append +qt4 } ...Qt5 is somewhat problematic on
libstdc++only, so maybe this if should check what the default stdlib is set to as well.
Whatever others decide is fine.
I do not use gpsbabel and was just trying to lend a hand on the Qt side.
If there is a better solution, that would be great.
I am hoping that Octave will eventually support Qt5.
If that day should ever come, whatever is decided here might prove to be a useful model.
