As a side effect it enables largefile support by default (as defined in autoconf rules). But accepting of this patch might depend on fix of the bug 319824. After applying of the patch you need to do: mv mono/GMime.metadata.in mono/GMime.metadata -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I will prepare a different patch, which is not using autoconf cache variables for guessing values. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

It makes binaries using shared gmime library incompatible between distributions, even if they use the same soname. To fix it correctly, I would propose: 1. Replace off_t by any other type which is not dependent on C flags in all (or all exported) functions. or 2. Exhibit large file support in library name (e. g. libgmime-off_t_8-2.0.so.2 x libgmime-off_t_4-2.0.so.2) and fix original bug. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

And the ABI breakage happenned silently a month ago, when largefile was enabled in OpenSUSE. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
