WebKit-gtk 2.4.3 fails to build on Gentoo Linux (ARM architecture, GCC 4.7.3 was used to compile it).

The error message is:

In file included from /usr/include/GL/gl.h:2085:0,
                 from /usr/include/GL/glx.h:32,

The following features were enabled by the standard Gentoo ebuild
[ebuild  r  U  ] net-libs/webkit-gtk-2.2.6:3/29 [1.10.2-r300:3/3] USE="egl%* geoloc gles2%* gstreamer introspection jit spell webgl (-aqua) -coverage -debug -libsecret% -opengl% {-test}" 0 kB
So it is compiled with EGL and OpenGL ES 2.0 support.

AFAIK it is not --disable-glx but --enable-glx=no

Isn't it equivalent? From the build log:

checking GL/glx.h usability... yes
checking GL/glx.h presence... yes
checking for GL/glx.h... yes
checking whether to enable GLX support... no

checking EGL/egl.h usability... yes
checking EGL/egl.h presence... yes
checking for EGL/egl.h... yes
checking whether to enable EGL support... yes

checking GLES2/gl2.h usability... yes
checking GLES2/gl2.h presence... yes
checking for GLES2/gl2.h... yes
checking whether to use OpenGL ES 2 support... yes

I spoke too fast:

glx.h is included by cairo-gl.h

Is cairo compiled with glx? What about recompile it only with egl support?

[Andrius Štikonas]

Yes, cairo was compiled with opengl. I think dependencies are incorrectly specified in Gentoo ebuild but I have to double check and recompile.

[Andrius Štikonas]

Ok, I can confirm that webkit-gtk builds if cairo is compiled with egl/gles2 support.

Thanks, I think we're having the same problem in Debian. We'll investigate and come back here.

So the problem is that we are using these two definitions of GLintptr if GLES 2 is enabled.

khronos_intptr_t is a signed long int (Source/ThirdParty/ANGLE/include/KHR/khrplatform.h)

In amd64 there's no problem because ptrdiff_t is also a long int.

However in arm it's a regular int, hence the conflict.

Can you try this patch?

[Andrius Štikonas]

ok, this patch works. Just finished compiling.

Patch

The problem comes because we include cairo-gl.h for the definition of
cairo_egl_device_create().

However that file also includes some definitions from the GLX headers
that conflict with the ones provided by the WebKit GLES2 headers.

Since we don't need any GLX code in that source file we can disable
the inclusion of those functions.

Will this fix be included in 2.4.x too?

It is very likely: http://trac.webkit.org/wiki/WebKitGTK/2.4.x

Thanks!
