a) refer 'perl' in their Makefile, or
b) have a directory name of p5-*, or
c) have any dependency on any p5-* package
Like last time, where this caused no complaints.
Among many bugfixes, changes and translations:
* GIO now has kqueue support for GFileMonitor (BSDs, Mac OS)
* GTask (the new GAsyncResult implementation) has landed
* We now install a public "gnetworking.h" header that can be used to
include the relevant OS-dependent networking headers. This does not
really abstract away unix-vs-windows however; error codes, in
particular, are incompatible.
See NEWS file http://git.gnome.org/browse/glib/plain/NEWS?id=2.36.1 for details.
Patches removed:
- patch-aj:
Per PR pkg/41601: Bug 133344 is closed and compile tested by Joern Clausen
- patch-at:
Fixed in b26fb3ae (Bug 687600)
- patch-cf:
Adds sys/param.h - if still needed, should go into gnetworking.h.in
XXX might still be needed
- patch-cg:
Fixed (or changed anyway) in 6f8f1f70 and 52a81a7d (Bug 688681)
- patch-ci:
Fixed in a33aaad0 (Bug 637013)

Patches added:
- patch-gio_glocalfile.c (Reported as Bug 698348)
xsltproc and Docbook packages do not enable this unexpectedly. Fixes
the build whenever manpages get enabled for some reason, as the PLIST
does not account for them.
- patch-ar and patch-as to avoid dependending on python are no longer
necessary since the introduction of --disable-modular-tests
- patch-co has been committed to glib in 2360d04e
- other patches cargo culted across
- statfs test was fixed in glib with commit afa82ae8
- no longer provide man pages as that requires docbook & xsltproc
Many changes in glib since 2.32.4, especially GDBus improvements.
See NEWS file http://git.gnome.org/browse/glib/plain/NEWS?id=2.34.0 for details.
On a 32-bit OpenIndiana 151a machine, glib2 failed with the error:
"large files are not supported by libelf".
The glib2 makefile doesn't include libelf from pkgsrc, it uses the version
with the header at /usr/include/libelf.h. Libelf will only support large
files (64 bits) with 64-bit versions of SunOS.
This change adds additional checks. When the Makefile determines that the
package is building on a 32-bit SunOS, it will force the configure script
to define _FILE_OFFSET_BITS as 32 which allows glib2 to build completely.
No need to bump revision; it wouldn't have built on 32-bit SunOS before.
This is a poor fix for an apparently not well understood problem, so
we should consider it a stopgap fix and find a sustainable solution
after the freeze.
