I don't have the file and don't have any of the wxWidgets installed, but |
15 |
at a guess... wrong version. This seems to be confirmed with a search: |
16 |
|
17 |
Google this for the fedora 1.0 beta 10 package: |
18 |
wxsvg-devel-1.0-0.8.b10 svgxml.h |
19 |
|
20 |
Now replace the b10 with b9, b8, etc. No hits. Delete the svgxml.h bit |
21 |
and you get hits again, so it's seeing the package, just not that file in |
22 |
the package. |
23 |
|
24 |
Therefore, it would seem that file was added in beta 10. |
25 |
|
26 |
Unfortunately, Gentoo's tree is outdated, with only the beta 7 ebuild. A |
27 |
quick check of bugzy results in: |
28 |
|
29 |
media-libs/wxsvg-1.0_beta10 version bump request |

Seems they're working on it, but it needs some patches to work with |
33 |
Gentoo, and while it's building, it isn't actually functional (segfaults). |
34 |
|
35 |
So... you can try hacking that ebuild and see if you can get it to work, |
36 |
or building and installing manually, to see if that works. I'd certainly |
37 |
suggest CCing yourself to the bug. |
38 |
|
39 |
It's also possible that whatever you are trying to build against that |
40 |
header file, you can either find an older version that builds against |
41 |
beta 7, or maybe, you can merge the building but segfaulting beta 10, and |
42 |
not have it matter if all you need are the header files. |
