Bug 16850

Will,

I've taken a look at this.. the PLIST was missing a large number of
bits and pieces, and I've made it ${PREFIX} safe by getting rid
of the "gnome-config --datadir" constructs in the configure script
(as a side note, using gnome-config for anything other than libs,
cflags, and versioning information is usually always a mistake :)

However, on a 3.4-STABLE machine, running XFree 3.3.6 with an
up-to-date ports tree, I get the following when I try to run it
(both with your patchset, and mine):

	viper 33% gnofract4d
	Xlib: sequence lost (0x1021d > 0x340) in reply type 0x0!
	Gdk-ERROR **: BadImplementation (server does not implement operation)
	  serial 541 error_code 17 request_code 20 minor_code 0

My 4.x box is currently in lots of little pieces, so I can't test there.

This doesn't happen with the previous 1.0 version.

My updated patchset can be found at:

If you can do a little more investigation and get the thing working
again, I'll be happy to commit it.

I know the gnofract4d PR was broken in a lot of places... Chris
Faulhaber approached me about it.. it should have been a fairly easy
update, and I was sorry to discover that it was not. I haven't really
had time to fix this lately due to my Qt/KDE stuff, which is now finally
getting into the ports tree.

I felt it was all right to leave gnofract4d alone for the time being,
although I did make the fatal mistake of not asking jedgar to close it
in order to save other people time, and I'm sorry about that.

Yeah.. very odd errors.. Chris couldn't even get it to compile. For some
strange reason it worked on my box when I tested it. I haven't had time
lately to test it.

Yah, I certainly can.. my first priority right now is to fix those
little Qt/KDE ports that still don't respect CXX, then I'll put my focus
on this (and other ports of mine that need updating).

Anyway, sorry again for wasting your time. Thanks for the patch, I'll
investigate it soon (probably today, if all goes well). :-)
