Reply-To:	geda-user AT delorie DOT com

I am trying to build geda-1.6.2 as an rpm for the upcoming new release 
of Mageia. Make throws several errors of the kind

/usr/include/glib-2.0/glib/gmem.h:28:2: error: #error "Only <glib.h> can 
be included directly."
In file included from /usr/include/glib-2.0/glib/gmem.h:34:0,
                  from s_path.c:40:

(with the old release there were no problems whatever). According to 
expert advice, glib.h must be directly included in the caller - if it 
worked earlier, that was due to permissiveness of older versions of glib 
(the Mageia 2 candidate presently uses glib 2.31.16 ).

Questions: is this a known problem? if yes, are patches available? - and 
anyhow, should be dealt with "upstream" in case the problem did not yet 
come up.

I had originally hoped that the new geda release might be available, but 
system freeze for Mageia is planned for March 7 - earlier than I had 
thought, I am afraid I will have to work with patches.
