[REQUEST] Gtkparasite update

There is a newer version for about four month of gtkparasite, but maintainer doesn't updated it. I tried to build it but failed with error:

Re: [REQUEST] Gtkparasite update

The error tells you exactly what is wrong:

configure.ac:38: error: 'AM_CONFIG_HEADER': this macro is obsolete.
    You should use the 'AC_CONFIG_HEADERS' macro instead.

The program's autotools script is using a macro that was depreciated in 2002 and removed from the latest version of automake.

As for what's wrong with the PKGBUILD, being a duplicate of gtkparasite-git would be the major one. Really, it's still a git PKGBUILD even if it's pulling a master tarball from github. I'll update gtkparasite-git.

Re: [REQUEST] Gtkparasite update

I have problem with this PKGBUILD again. It seams it build package with gtk3 support although there is no "--with-gtk=3.0" in PKGBUILD. Gtkparasite module is in /usr/lib/gtk-3.0/modules. When I run it with gtk2 application I get error:

Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "gtkparasite"

When I copy module to /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/modules I get error:

Gtk-WARNING **: GTK+ module /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/modules/libgtkparasite.so cannot be loaded.
GTK+ 2.x symbols detected. Using GTK+ 2.x and GTK+ 3 in the same process is not supported.
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "gtkparasite"

But it working well with gtk3 applications.

Re: [REQUEST] Gtkparasite update

Looks like commit 118259743d308c6848e23bdbd8102974d5d85177 dropped support for GTK2 completely, as well as some other changes that require PKGBUILD changes. Contact the current maintainer.
