Re: [Texmacs-dev] Qt TeXmacs-1.0.7.7, Qt-4.6.3 compilation error

[Sam Liddicott]

I've been using --enable-qt on linux without problems until recently.

With todays svn head I've had to apply the attached patch.

and it's still not compiling yet, problems finding the include file QStatusBar, so I'm trying to find which ubuntu package provides that

Thanks! After reading this, I wrote the following patch which fixes the
compilation problem in Linux.

It seems that the problem is well-known; there is a "standard" solution,
namely, /usr/include/fixx11.h (so, instead of these 3 lines, one might
just insert 1: #include <fixx11.h>). But this file belongs to kdelibs, and
not every Linux user has it installed. So, my patch is more limited but
more portable (and it solves the immediate problem).

Hmm. It seems that during the last year nobody has ever compiled TeXmacs
with --enable-qt on any kind of Linux. Otherwise, this problem would be
encountered by somebody:

X11/X.h:
#define CursorShape 0

QtCore/qnamespace.h:
enum CursorShape { ... }

which, of course, becomes

enum 0 { ... }

Not a very encouraging thought...
