Message-ID: <18221527.post@talk.nabble.com> List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: buildroot@busybox.net Hi I have posted some patches and raised BUG reports but have had no feedback and i was wondering how i might get these changes mainlined? These changes are all designed to get GTK building with DirectFB support if DirectFB is enabled and XORG is not. I think this would benefit many embedded buildroot users. I am currently working on getting WebKit on GTK running with a patch they have in their bug tracking system that removes the dependancy on ICU and this I am sure will benefit all cross compilers out there For now I have lots of local changes and I just want to get them mainlined for others to benefit / improve. The changes are: Summary 0003614: libxslt uses old build system and does not post edit the xslt-config script like libxml2/freetype Description libxslt is built using old build system. Move to autotargets system and make sure config script is post edited correctly. Also add option to support conditional crypto support (based upon libgcrypt being selected) Summary 0003604: libxml2 config script (xml2-config) is not edited in the same way as freetype-config Description libxml2 produces a config script like freetype. Called xml2-config. It requires that the same SED be done so that cross compilation works. Summary 0003594: ATK does not always require X support to be compiled Description ATK does not always require X support to be enabled (DirectFB only for instance) Summary 0003584: Cairo does not build directfb if directfb support required (dependencies missing) Description Cairo supports being built for DirectFB. However it is not dependent on DirectFB so DirectFB may not actually be build yet Summary 0003574: pango.mk redefines PKG_CONFIG_* for no reason Description pango.mk currently redefines PKG_CONFIG_PATH/SYSROOT. This is not necessary as specified in configure enviroment. In my case I have added usr/local/lib/pkgconfig as well and without this fix I need to edit multiple makefiles not just package/Makefile.in. Summary 0003564: libgtk.mk redefines PKG_CONFIG_PATH, not necessary Description libgtk.mk currently redefines PKG_CONFIG_PATH. This is not necessary as specified in configure enviroment. In my case I have added usr/local/lib/pkgconfig as well and without this fix I need to edit multiple makefiles not just package/Makefile.in. Summary 0003554: Make libgtk2 visible with DirectFB and not just XORG Description libgtk2 is currently dependent on XORG being selected in some form or another. You may only have DirectFB is which case gtk is currently not selectable.
