 Henri, another issue popped up with today's code
It was a clean run from scratch, no traces left from earlier versions. Only changes made by me is switching tcmalloc back on, and change to libpng-1.2. Else it's completely your original code that is used. Last version (1.26.8.14) compiled perfectly without a glitch. And I do
Your expertise is appreciated as always! |

Grrr... Yes, this is due to the pre-built GTK+ libraries that are used to compile (but not to run, since they are not bundled with the viewer that instead uses the end user's system GTK+ libraries) the viewer... The FT_Stream_GetLong() and FT_Stream_GetShort() functions have been deprecated starting from Freetype v2.4.5 and since the old GTK+ pre-built libraries were built using an older version (and never updated since by LL), the linker bails on build systems without a v2.4.4 or older libfreetype dynamic library installed...
I made a patch for freetype v2.4.12 that re-implements the deprecated functions so that the linker stops complaining (even if, in the end, those functions won't be used at all by the viewer) and recompiled a freetype pre-built with it: it seems to be working fine, here. You can apply this other patch to the source tree of the Cool VL Viewer v1.26.4.79, v1.26.8.15 or v1.26.9.15 (*) so to be able to use the new pre-built library: let me know if it works for you. (*) To apply the patch, download it and, from a terminal and while inside the linden/ directory of the viewer sources, use:

With that patch applied it was possible to compile 1.26.8.15 without any errors, and the viewer also starts fine. I'll let you know if there are other issues showing later when I'm online, but for a start it looks very good. Thanks for the prompt help Henri ^_^ |

Today's releases are using a new pre-built library that got the necessary patch applied.
