The patch was only accepted for gtk+, but for glib2 I am sure it won't |
24 |
ever be acceptable, because upstream the test for iconv() and nls support |
25 |
will stop the build, if they are both not found. |
26 |
|

nls is no real problem, because it can be replaced by dummies, yvasilev |
28 |
made a better patch for iconv() replacement. |

I see the future rather by enabling iconv() in uClibc (but not the |
31 |
nls/libintl/gettext stuff). That allows proper glib2 builds and everything |
32 |
that depends on it. |
33 |
The nls part can be disabled/replaced by dummies in |
34 |
glib-2/glib/gi18n[-lib].h, that will allow to solve all glib2 dependant |
35 |
apps by: |
36 |
sed -i 's:libintl.h:gi18n.h:' <file> |
37 |
|
38 |
I have built like this all of emerge gnome |
