I have an issue building gucharmap-3.12.0

VAPIGEN gucharmap-2.90.vapi
Gucharmap-2.90.gir:1424.7-1424.33: error: The type name `Atk.TableCell' could not be found

By removing the --enable-vala switch fixes the build issue, but I don't think that's the best solution. i.e. there is still an underlying Vala issue.

Replying to wblaszcz:

I have an issue building gucharmap-3.12.0

VAPIGEN gucharmap-2.90.vapi
Gucharmap-2.90.gir:1424.7-1424.33: error: The type name `Atk.TableCell' could not be found
/usr/share/vala/Makefile.vapigen:61: recipe for target 'gucharmap-2.90.vapi' failed

ISTR that I had an analogous issue, because I had built g-i to late in the process. I wonder if this could be something similar (like vala built before g-i, or so).

[Fernando de Oliveira]

I have reinstalled several packages, reverted to previous vala-0.22.1, previous atk, same problem.

Debian testing has already this gucharmap, but vala and at* are still not updated.

​http://www.0d.be/debian/debian-gnome-3.12-status.html

[Fernando de Oliveira]

Situation similar in Arch (please, check, when I give these info, if I am not mis-interpreting what I read).

Wayne, I think for the moment, best solution would be remove the switch.

[Wayne Blaszczyk]

Agreed. I've removed the switch from my build script. I'll let you know if I find anything else.

[Fernando de Oliveira]

OK.

Some problems with gnome-terminal:

Needed

​https://github.com/hughsie/appdata-tools/archive/appdata_tools_0_1_7.tar.gz

      autoreconf -fi &&
      intltoolize &&
CMMI

and the switch --disable-search-provider otherwise the gnome-session provider would be necessary, I imagine this means the gnome-session application itself.

I am stopping today.

[Fernando de Oliveira]

Back tomorrow.

[Wayne Blaszczyk]

I didn't require an autoreconf. Please try this tarball ​http://people.freedesktop.org/~hughsient/releases/appdata-tools-0.1.7.tar.xz. I cannot really comment on the --disable-search-provider as I have gnome-session installed.

Fixed at r12925:

gnome-icon-theme-symbolic-3.12.0
gnome-themes-standard-3.12.0
gnome-icon-theme-extras-3.12.0
Gucharmap-3.12.0

[Fernando de Oliveira]

Forgot to include Gucharmap-3.12.0 above and in the changelog.

Fixed at r12926.

[Fernando de Oliveira]

Problem with gnome-power-manager:

$ gnome-power-statistics

(gnome-power-statistics:16568): libupower-glib-CRITICAL **: up_client_get_devices: assertion 'client->priv->done_enumerate' failed

and then:

"Falha de segmentação" [segfault]

[Armin K]

With this commit [1], gnome-power-manager requires UPower-0.99.0, which is also required by rest of GNOME. But that version is not suitable for BLFS since it has dropped deprecated stuff (including support for pm-utils) and it requires systemd for some tasks, if not as a hard dependency.

The solution is probably to drop the package.

[Fernando de Oliveira]

OK, thank you very much, Armin.

Will raise a ticket just for this.

[Fernando de Oliveira]

Please, I need confirmation that cheese works fine. It seems to work, program opens, but I do not have the hardware. Otherwise, I will not be able to tag "checked". Thanks.

[Armin K]

Cheese works better than the last version here.

[Fernando de Oliveira]

Thanks.

I did not like Totem's new UI, though.

Partially fixed at r12928.

Forgot system-monitor. Tomorrow

[Fernando de Oliveira]

gnome-system-monitor-3.12.0
totem-3.12.0

Totem's version had been changed by mistake, without actually updating the package.

Fixed at r12931.
