Qwtplot3d and Gl2ps

[Gudjon I. G. <gu...@mc...>]

Hi
   My name is Gudjon and I have made a Debian package out of QwtPlot3d that=
 is=20
already in the distribution.
   It is great that the work on the library will resume, I look forward to=
=20
that but I have a question.
   I dislike having 3dparty libraries within packages since Debian has the=
=20
dependency framework that lets one package install another. Gl2ps in=20
QwtPlot3d is also an old version of the library. I tried to compile QwtPlot=
3d=20
against the new version and got the following result:
src/qwt3d_io_gl2ps.cpp:377: error: cannot convert =E2=80=98GLfloat*=E2=80=
=99 to =E2=80=98GLfloat=E2=80=99 for=20
argument =E2=80=985=E2=80=99 to =E2=80=98GLint gl2psTextOpt(const char*, co=
nst char*, GLshort, GLint,=20
GLfloat)=E2=80=99
The last argument has changed to angle in the gl2ps library. So with this u=
gly=20
change the new library works.
diff src/qwt3d_io_gl2ps.cpp.org src/qwt3d_io_gl2ps.cpp
377c377,378
<       ret =3D gl2psTextOpt(str, fontname, (int)fontsize, a, 0);
=2D--
>       //ret =3D gl2psTextOpt(str, fontname, (int)fontsize, a, rgba2);
>       ret =3D gl2psTextOpt(str, fontname, (int)fontsize, a, 0);//rgba2);

Has anyone fixed this in a more beautiful way?

Gudjon
