I agree that delivering 'pkg-config' aware gdlib in Oracle Solaris
would be the best solution.

However, to do that, I would need to go and identify maintainer
of library/gd package within Oracle (if there is any), then persuade
that person to enrich the package with appropriate '.pc' file.
Not sure how feasible that would be, though it would definitely not
be a negligible effort.

In light of that, feeding configure with 'GDLIB_*' definitions seems
like an acceptable workaround to me.

Best regards,
Jan

That might well be the root-cause of the PCB configure being unhappy with GD.

Shortly before the 4.0.0 release (Commit on Jan 14th) - the configure check was re-worked to use pkg-config, as is now the preferred method.

Rather than going back to the (long deprecated) gdlib-config check - any chance you can help us understand what is necessary to get gd installed with pkg-config support on Solaris?

Kind regards,

Peter

Hi Peter,

$ pkg-config --modversion libgd
Package libgd was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libgd.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable=
No package 'libgd' found
$

It fails, because IPS (*) package delivering libgd
does not contain 'pc' file:

$ pkg contents library/gd | grep pc
$

Jan

(*) IPS stands for "Image Packaging System" which is packaging system used
=C2=A0 =C2=A0=C2=A0 on Oracle Solaris 11
Chad - do you think we have an issue with how GD is being detected on this platform?

Are we using gd-config in configure, or pkg-config. (It seems the later is preferred now). (I'm not at my development machine at the moment).

See:



Jan:

What does this command:

pkg-config --modversion=C2=A0libgd

output?

Hi Chad,
that indeed helped, thanks :-)
4.0.0 now builds with gcc as well as Oracle Solaris Studio, both 32-bit and 64-bit, so I will start using it.
Nothing imminent though, as I "produce" just couple of PCBs per year (electronics is my hobby, not a daily job).
Cheers,
 Jan

What happens if you add "-lgd" to your definition of GDLIB_LIBS?

Hello list members,

It has been almost a month to this day that a new release of pcb was done.
In this month there have been some 709 downloads of the tarball.

What we active developers would like to have feedback on is:

1) how many list members have downloaded the tarball ?

=C2=A0 (0 or +1 suffices)

+1

2) how many list members have tried to build an run the new version of pcb ?
=C2=A0 (0 or +1 suffices)

I run pcb on Oracle Solaris 11, so tried to build 4.0.0 there,
 but it failedduringconfigure phase in following way:
$ ./configure --disable-gl --disable-toporouter ...
 checking for GDLIB... no
 configure: error: Note: cannot find gdlib.
This is required for gcode, nelma, png HIDs=
You may want to review the following errors:

I have libgd installed on the system:
$ gdlib-config --all

 You may need to update your installation of gd or disable

I verified that the library does providegdImageGif():
