webkit-gtk 1.6.3 fails with ‘is protected within this context' error

[jovo@…]

Upgrade webkit-gtk 1.6.3 results in:

error: ‘static void JSC::AbstractMacroAssembler<AssemblerType>::repatchPointer(JSC::CodeLocationDataLabelPtr, void*) [with AssemblerType = JSC::X86Assembler]’ is protected.

This on intel iMac with OS X 10.5.8. Details in the log attached.

I built it just fine on Leopard (i386, x86_64, ppc), but my Leopard is using gcc-4.2. Can you please try:

sudo port -v clean webkit-gtk
sudo port -v install webkit-gtk configure.compiler=gcc-4.2

[jovo@…]

Installation using gcc-4.2

That combination was successful. Attached the clean and installation log. Thanks

That was a bit too hastily as Gnucash now crashes with:

Dyld Error Message:
  Symbol not found: _UCNV_FROM_U_CALLBACK_SUBSTITUTE_48
  Referenced from: /opt/local/lib/libwebkitgtk-1.0.0.dylib
  Expected in: dynamic lookup

As this is one of my critical applications I once more downgrade to webkit 1.2.7 and recompile Gnucash.

Ok, the gcc issue is addressed with r92056

epiphany ran for me just fine when I tested it earlier, but I forget which box that was on. I do see your symbol issue on my Leopard machine, so I'm looking into it.

[jeremyhu (Jeremy Huddleston Sequoia)]

Ah, I think the problem is that it's linking against /usr/lib/libicucore.A.dylib instead of ${prefix}/lib/libicuuc.48.dylib

r92058 fixes the icu bug.
