Bug 84095 – Only depend on xrender if x11 is being used

• Component: WebKitGTK
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Jeremy Huddleston Sequoia]

http://trac.macports.org/ticket/34086

configure.ac contains:
# check for XRender under Linux/Unix. Some linkers require explicit
# linkage (like GNU Gold), so we cannot rely on GTK+ pulling XRender
if test "$os_win32" = "no"; then
   PKG_CHECK_MODULES([XRENDER], [xrender])
   AC_SUBST([XRENDER_CFLAGS])
   AC_SUBST([XRENDER_LIBS])
fi

But that logic is incorrect.  You should be checking for xrender based on target (x11), not OS.  This incorrectly results in xrender being pulled in for the quartz target, and it incorrectly prevents xrender from being pulled in on the win/x11 target.

No, I'm saying that's exactly what I had already, so:

This looks out of date, the patch does not apply.

[Jeremy Huddleston Sequoia]

It's a trivial 1-line patch.  Surely you can rebase it.

[Jeremy Huddleston Sequoia]

And it applies fine to 1.11.5

The configuration system used by the Autotools build was reworked recently. The change should now fit in here:
