Description Liam Quin 2014-02-07 20:35:42 CET

Description of problem:

quodlibet doesn't start - if you run it from the terminal you see,
E: PyGObject is missing cairo support

This seems to be because we don't have python-cario-gobject (nor python-gobject-cairo) packages. But quodlibit ought to have a dependency on it.

Actually I'd say this is more a bug with their buildsystem, if this is required how can such a broken build be ok to proceed?

Anyways, this is probably the issue: for python-gobject introspection support is disabled, as otherwise it doesn't build (code seems too old from some of the warning). And it seems cairo supports needs introspection, from configure output:

  --enable-cairo          Enable Cairo bindings using introspection
                          information
  --enable-introspection  Use introspection information

After rebuilding python-gobject with only --enable-cairo, no difference.
When trying to rebuild python-gobject3 and enabling cairo, build of the library breaks.

[doktor5000@Mageia3 SPECS]$ rpm -qa | grep python | grep gobject
python-gobject-debuginfo-2.28.6-12.mga4
python3-gobject3-3.10.2-1.mga4
python-gobject-2.28.6-12.mga4
python-gobject-devel-2.28.6-12.mga4


This should be reported upstream with quodlibet and/or python-gobject

Pushed fixed pkg to Cauldron. This probably should be also fixed in mga4.
