[Bug 899776] New: gnome-clocks lacks dependencies: undefined symbol: gtk_application_get_menu_by_id
http://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=899776 Bug ID: 899776 Summary: gnome-clocks lacks dependencies: undefined symbol: gtk_application_get_menu_by_id Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Factory Version: 201409* Hardware: x86-64 OS: openSUSE 13.2 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: GNOME Assignee: bnc-team-gnome@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: gp@suse.com QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: Product Management Blocker: --- Created attachment 608967 --> http://bugzilla.suse.com/attachment.cgi?id=608967&action=edit Output of rpm -qa | sort | egrep 'gnome|gtk' Since I am behind a slow line right now and the whole Factory update is abot 2GB, I installed some updates piecemeal (for example to address bugs or verify fixes). One of the packages I updated is gnome-clocks, from version 3.12.x to 3.14.0-1.1.x86_64. Now when I try to start it, I get the following: gnome-clocks: symbol lookup error: gnome-clocks: undefined symbol: gtk_application_get_menu_by_id -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

What is the version of gtk on your system? The issue you see is probably because gnome-clocks 3.14 cannot work without gtk+ 3.14, and possibly other GNOME/gtk libraries that are part of the 3.14 upgrade. Upgrading individual pieces rather than the entire GNOME stack to version 3.14 at once is likely to cause such issues.

And I understand that one should not upgrade individual components and what the problem is. The bug I am reporting is that gnome-clocks lacks a proper dependency on a newer version of libgtk. That is, when one runs `zypper up gnome-clocks` that should always pull in required updates of dependencies. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

The main problem here is that library dependencies are automatically extracted by RPM; adding all libraries manually to the .spec file as dependencies will result in chaos and 99% incorrect deps as well (remember the old times where autoprovreq was off?) The automatic symbols extracted by the deps for gtk is: libgtk-3.0.so() (or libgtk-3.0.so()(64bit) on 64bit arch). This provides itself is unversioned. I'll pass it on to the RPM maintainer to investigate if there is a reasonable chance to enhance the dep scanner for binaries to:: - Add a version info to the provides - On extracting deps, identify what .so file links to the library, which devel package this relates to and if there is a versioned BuildRequires in the .spec for the same. If there is, require this same version; otherwise require unversioned. This will be further complicated as in most cases we do not require a -devel package, but pkgconfig() symbols. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

The actual issue does not exist any more, and this just looks like another one of those "eternally open, never processed further" issues. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
