What computer, what OS version, and what version of Xcode?

Can you attach the complete main.log file?

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Are your port definitions up to date, and are all installed ports up to date? If not, upgrade and try again.

sudo port clean gtk2
sudo port selfupdate
port outdated
sudo port upgrade outdated

[mvondavier@…]

main.log as requested

[mvondavier@…]

Unfortunately, the same thing happens after selfupdate and upgrade outdated. All ports are up to date,

$ port -v installed gtk2 gdk-pixbuf2
The following ports are currently installed:
  gdk-pixbuf2 @2.22.1_1 platform='darwin 10' archs='x86_64'
  gdk-pixbuf2 @2.22.1_1+universal (active) platform='darwin 10' archs='i386 x86_64'
  gtk2 @2.24.5_0+universal+x11 (active) platform='darwin 10' archs='i386 x86_64'

The universal version (or just the i386 part) of gdk-pixbuf2 is broken.

The following command fails when gdk-pixbuf2 @2.22.1_1+universal is active but works when gdk-pixbuf2 @2.22.1_1 is active (both packages come from packages.macports.org)

$ cd "`port work gtk2`/gtk+-2.24.5-x86_64/demos"
$ /opt/local/bin/gdk-pixbuf-csource --raw --build-list \
apple_red  ./apple-red.png  \
gnome_foot ./gnome-foot.png \
> test-inline-pixbufs.h \
|| (rm -f test-inline-pixbufs.h && false)

I have a Macintel with 10.6.8.

This also happens on Tiger/i386 if apple-gcc42 is set as the default compiler. It looks like this is an issue with gcc-4.2 and i386.

[jeremyhu (Jeremy Huddleston Sequoia)]

Ok, I think the issue here was that libgio in glib2 was incorrectly built. Simply rebuilding glib2 was insufficient. I needed to rebuild gdk-pixbuf2 against the fixed glib2. I fixed glib2 in r91791 and bumped gdk-pixbuf2 to force a rebuild in r91792.

When were these patches removed? Trying to view the latest revisions of each of the patches gives me a trac error...

(asking because this issue came up on the mailing lists again: ​https://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/macports-users/2013-August/033241.html. Also I've been running into the same error with Homebrew: ​https://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/issues/21938)

Thanks. Anyways, hm... Ryan didn't seem to mention why he removed them... I'm assuming it's because they must've been integrated upstream or something?

Edit: could someone put him on cc for this?

That is what I am assuming as well, but it is 2 years ago now and I don't remember.
