Hi,

attached are 2 patchs against 1.0.4

The 1st is gyach_int.patch, it corrects a null pointer dereference. I suspect
that there are one or more potential ones around the same area (in the
strdups() just below what this one patched!) However, they did not crash for me.

The 2nd patch. When you run the following:

        configure --prefix=abc

well, the datadir is not properly being relocated under abc, it
remains under /usr/local. I feel (and am expecting) that it relocates
the data directory to abc (the files actually do get relocated, but
the code references to PACKAGE_DATA_DIR is out of sync at /usr/local.
This patchs configure to relocate PACKAGE_DATA_DIR based upon prefix

best rgds,

Hi all,

I'm attempting to build and get running gyachi on Fedora Core 5

I've had mixed success.

grabbing the gyachi-1.0.4, with a few minor tweaks to the spec
file, I'm able to get a clean compile, and some rpms.

>From some rudimentary testing, most seems to work fine when i
run gyachi. I do have one consistent, and reproduceable crash.

When I open the setup panel, and then save it (after making
a change), gyachi will consistenly crash. The crash is in a strdup
call, from gyach_int.c (line 1308)

the code in question does:

        tmp_widget = lookup_widget( setup_window, "webcam_viewer_app" );
        webcam_viewer_app = strdup(gtk_entry_get_text(GTK_ENTRY(tmp_widget)));

When I step into the gtkentry_get_text code, there are 2 stdout/stderr
messages generated.

     (gyachi:20995): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: invalid cast from `GtkButton' to
`GtkEntry'
     (gyachi:20995): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_entry_get_text: assertion
`GTK_IS_ENTRY (entry)' failed

I'm guessing that the tmp_widget resolves into a null pointer.

If it matters, I have not setup my web cam, yet. (haven't even
plugged it in, yet).

If this a bug in the code ?

Next, I grabbed cvs, and tried to compile an image from cvs.

I'm having some problems there also.

configure runs, and then themake runs, and i get the following
errors from the make (see also the attachment)

make: *** [configure] Error 1

any ideas where to go from here, on either front ?

many thanks, and best rgds,
