py-game 1.8.0 build failure on Tiger, error in SDL_syswm.h

[jmroot (Joshua Root)]

Originally reported in #15123. Parse errors in SDL_syswm.h, which is included from pygame's display.c:

For what it's worth, I'm not able to repro this on a very similar Tiger computer, so I suspect this is an environmental issue. It can probably be closed.

The error above is what you get when you try to use SDL-for-X11 without X11 installed...

This is a duplicate of #15123, and the gentoo patch suggested there is a proper fix: ​http://bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=124726&action=view

But the code in SDL_syswm.h should only be included with SDL_VIDEO_DRIVER_X11 defined, so there seems to be something wrong with the SDL installation not matching the system ?

[afb@…]

Seems like the error message was cut off, for not running the original build with port -d.

Here's what I get when I remove the /usr/X11R6/include headers before trying to build py-game:

I got the same error on Mac OS X 10.4.11. The following patch fixes it for me:

     depends_lib-append port:py-pyobjc2 port:py-pyobjc2-cocoa

I don't know why the path to ${x11prefix} is not automatically added to -I and why it works for some installations. This change should also fix #10642.

If there are no objections I would commit it and also add it to py25-game.

Could the reason it sometimes works be due to libsdl's quartz variant being selected or not? Anyway, I don't think the patch should break anything, so go ahead and commit it. Maybe we need a quartz or no_x11 variant as well, as Anders suggested?

[nox@…]

I've removed the quartz variant from libsdl in r36732.

[simon@…]

This should be fixed in r36726.

I'm not sure, it works fine for me with the patch. I haven't tried using libsdl with quartz so I don't know how this works. As nox just removed the quartz variant from libsdl I'm not sure what we should do.

Thanks,

Simon
