Description Emilio Pozuelo Monfort 2010-12-26 18:50:01 UTC

0.13.10 fails to build from source when configured with --enable-vala-bindings:

make[3]: Entering directory `/tmp/buildd/telepathy-glib-0.13.10/vala'
/usr/bin/vapigen \
		--library telepathy-glib \
		--pkg gio-2.0 \
		../telepathy-glib/TelepathyGLib-0.12.gir \
		
error: The type name `GLib.TypeInterface' could not be found
Generation failed: 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)
make[3]: *** [telepathy-glib.vapi] Error 1

I git bisected this and tracked it down to commit 86b80a0a351ba3d9a79a14a256c22b1191f7f4cc, which isn't buggy per se. I don't know whether this is tp-glib or something else's fault.

I think it probably ought to be GObject.TypeInterface, but client-channel-factory's only mention of TypeInterface is "GTypeInterface parent;", so if this doesn't work, nobody else's GInterfaces will work either.

Which version of g-i and Vala are you using?

Comment 3 Emilio Pozuelo Monfort 2011-01-03 07:16:22 UTC

I tried with g-i 0.9.12 and 0.10.0 and vala 0.10.1 (i.e. what is currently in Debian).

Luca Bruno has fixed two bugs in the vala gir parser and says vala 0.11.3 should work fine.
