#52481: KDEPIM4 and gpgme: header conflict
-------------------------+--------------------------------
Reporter: rjvbertin@… | Owner: macports-tickets@…
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: High | Milestone:
Component: ports | Version: 2.3.4
Keywords: | Port: kdepimlibs4
-------------------------+--------------------------------
So, the sequel to https://trac.macports.org/ticket/52342...
Half a night and day of rebuilding later, I am now convinced that the most
reasonable and efficient way forward is to patch port:gpgme and
port:kdelibs4 such that the 2 incompatible gpgme++ versions have their own
include directories from which the compiler shouldn't normally read
headers by accident. IOW, `-I${prefix}/include/KDE` or
`-I${prefix}/include/gpgme` is required to select the appropriate header
source directory.
KDE clearly intend to maintain their own gpgme++ wrappers for the time
being, which means they must have a reason that we should consider as
certainly good enough for us (= not to try and patch KDE code).
The companion ticket that proposes the required patch to port:gpgme :
https://trac.macports.org/attachment/ticket/52479
@Nicos: let me repeat that moving the KDE4 headers to
${prefix}/include/KDE4 is both simple and required for compatibility with
my upcoming KF5 ports. Almost all that is required is rebuilding
port:kdelibs4 with `-DINCLUDE_INSTALL_DIR=${kde4.include_dirs}` in
configure.args . No dependents need to be rev-bumped, all dependents will
find the moved kdelibs4 headers, and all but a select few will install
their own headers there too (= the
`-DINCLUDE_INSTALL_DIR=${kde4.include_dirs}` configure arg. doesn't have
to be repeated for all dependents). If you want to test this more fully it
should be possible to add that configure arg. to the KDEPIM4 ports only,
for now. I haven't tested this.
PS: I also have kdepim*-devel ports in my MacStrop repo that update
KDEPIM4 to the very latest version.
