I'm running OS X 10.7.5 with Xcode 4.6.1. I turned to wine because I need to use an older Windows application but I confess I'm at the edge of my technical know-how. Please help?

I'm having the same issue, if the recent change to the gnome-vfs portfile was supposed to fix this.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

The recent change to the portfile, r104859, was only meant to fix the livecheck.

While we wait for an approved API solution from someone with the time to write one, why not at least use the deprecated API so the port will build? Other ports depend on this one. Personally, I have done this in my Portfile:

configure.cflags-append     -UG_DISABLE_DEPRECATED

gnome-vfs doesn't build anymore due to previously deprecated and as of (at least) glib2 v. 2.36 (also glib2-devel which is at 2.37 currently) removed functions and types.

I haven't seen any patch either.

Also, gnome-vfs is deprecated anyway, replaced by gvfs and gio. Can't we make ports depending on gnome-vfs like gstreamer010-gst-plugins-base (and others) depend on gvfs && gio and compile with those two instead? Do they even really need gnome-vfs?

Rewriting gnome-vfs to work with glib2 and glib2-devel just isn't worth the effort, as only a few packages are depending on it nowadays.

gstreamer010-gst-plugins-base has a no_gnome_vfs variant, we should remove this and unconditionally build without gnome-vfs support.

gtksourceview, libgnome, libgtkhtml, thunderbird-x11, qalculate-gtk, p5-gnome2-vfs, py25-gnome, py26-gnome, py27-gnome, rb-gnomevfs, firefox-x11, firefox-x11-devel depend unconditionally on gnome-vfs.

If we remove gnome-vfs, we can also get rid of p5-gnome2-vfs and rb-gnomevfs.

libgtkhtml only uses gnome-vfs for the testcases/testgtkhtml, given that we don't run that anyway, we can get rid of the gnome-vfs dependency.

Regarding thunderbird-x11, firefox-x11 and firefox-x11-devel, those ports are *heavily* outdated and a potential security risk. Do we have users for those? If not, I'd get rid of them as well.

I can't find dependencies for gnome-vfs on Gentoo for gtksourceview, qalculate-gtk, instead both are depending on libgnome. We may want to change the dependencies from gnome-vfs to libgnome as well.

This leaves us with libgnome, py25-gnome, py26-gnome and py27-gnome with hard dependencies on gnome-vfs. That's an issue, as we can't just remove or change those ports, especially not libgnome. :(

Does anybody else have some idea?

[jmroot (Joshua Root)]

Should build after r105824.

Changes required to remove deprecated glib2 functionality in gnome-vfs

[Ionic (Mihai Moldovan)]

Should you want to disable the deprecated stuff again, gnome-vfs is compiling with my above patch. No warranty though, especially for the G(Static)Private init which may be wrong.
