Re: back to an old problem

I didn't realize that I had ended up fixing your exact issue in my
pull request either...

But here, the trick is that it's not an libgtk-win32 that gets copied,
but the gtk-sharp-beans.dll, without a .config, and it's *this*
gtk-sharp-beans.dll that wants the libgtk-win32 DLL that it can't
find. Removing the gtk-sharp-beans.dll causes the runtime to load the
gtk-sharp-beans.dll from /usr/lib/mono/gac/gtk-sharp-beans, which
comes with a proper gtk-sharp-beans.dll.config containing the right
link.

So basically, the issue comes from the "f-spot" gtk-sharp-beans.dll
being loaded without its dependency map, overriding the loading of the
DLL in the mono assemblies that is properly configured. I think. I'm
pretty sure. ;)

Agreed.  I wasn't proposing f-spot to do that.  I think I didn't realize you
were having the same issue.  When I get home later, I'll remove that entry
from /etc/mono.config and try everything from scratch.  I don't recall
finding a copy of libgtk-win32 or libgtk-x11 anywhere within the f-spot
build or install directories, but I might have only been looking for one and
not the other. Hopefully I'll get to this later today - otherwise it may be
few days.

an update to mono erases your mono.conf and the workaround you made?

So it's great you found a workaround, but it's still just that, a
workaround. I have a feeling I found the bottom of the issue, but I am
not too eager to go to the lead dev saying "works on *my* machine" as
the only justification :D.
With regards to the 2.0 API version, I guess you are referring to:
https://github.com/mono/f-spot/pull/29 :)

I'll have to read this again more carefully when I'm at home. However, I
finally solved the problem of not finding libgtk-win32 by adding the
dllmap
statement to /etc/mono.conf.  With that alone, the configure/compile went
fine.  I also manually updated to the 2.0 API versions of gtk-sharp and
gtk-sharp-glib, pending Gentoo creating new packages.  Also - after those
changes, I started with a fresh git clone.

Trying to compile from latest sources on a clean mageia5, I ran into
the problem again. The odd thing is, all the csproj and .config files
create the mapping to libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0, except one,
gtk-sharp-beans.dll. The one that is in the bin folder. I do not know
*why* the dll is copied from wherever it is taken. All I know is that
if I *remove* gtk-sharp-beans.dll from the f-spot/bin directory, then
the error goes away. And, oddly enough, the gtk-sharp-beans.dll under
f-spot/bin is without any .config.

I think I tried to fix it in one of my pull requests, but that didn't
get merged to main.



https://github.com/NguyenMatthieu/f-spot/commit/b9ac2c31d58682b7cb77e680c556e18eec2ab474

(What I did at the time was remove the  "<Package>"  for
gtk-sharp-beans in all csproj files, it seemed to prevent the dll from
being copied).

If you could try that on your machine (removing the
gtk-sharp-beans.dll from f-spot/bin and from /usr/local/lib/f-spot/ ),
and if it does indeed work, then I'll resuggest my pull request, or an
updated version of it...

Well,  I'm finally getting back to spending some time trying to get
this
to
work, still with no luck.

I do not find libgtk-win32 anywhere.  As I said, it is mapped in the
gac
to
libgtk-x11, which is in /usr/lib/....  Should there be a copy of it in
/usr/local/lib/f-spot?  That directory has lots of .dll files, some
with
an
associated .mdb  and some with a .config.  The only .so in that
directory
is
libfspot.so.  However, both FSpot.Gui.dll.config and
Hyena.Gui.dll.config
include a line mapping libgtk-win32-2.0-0.dll to libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0.

Any suggestions on further troubleshooting would be greatly
appreciated.

F-Spot was trying to load the .dll from the /usr/local/lib/f-spot/
folder
which was missing the .config linking to the proper .so, rather than
taking
the lib from the gac.

Check what you have in your /usr/local/lib/f-spot folder, just in
case...

As I said in the other thread, I have gotten f-spot from git-head to
compile, but I still get a dll not found error on
libgth-win32-2.0-0.dll.
This seems odd, because that library is in a dllmap in the gac for
both
gnome-sharp and gtk-sharp, both pointing to
target="libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0"
which exists in both /usr/lib32 and /use/lib64, and is loaded before,
and is
searched in both before and immediately after the error, if I run
f-spot
with MONO_LOG_LEVEL=debug.

I've found this error referenced in a few bug reports (f-spot and
other
apps) but no definitive solution, just claims that something wasn't
installed correctly.  It seems as if neither of those two dllmap
entries is
being read.  I could try putting it explicitly in f-spot.exe.config,
but I
don't know if that's really a good solution for the long run, or just
a
quick work-around.
Any thoughts or suggestions?
