528941 - pangox.h includes should be removed

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Graphics, defect)

Description

[Nirbheek Chauhan]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.2b2) Gecko/20091112 Gentoo Firefox/3.6b2
Build Identifier: 

Sometime during the 1.9.1 cycle, pangox got replaced by pangoxft for fonts, but the headers are still around. pangox has been deprecated[1][2] upstream for a while now, hence there's no point keeping the header includes around.

This is part of our downstream (Gentoo) effort[3] to remove usage of pangox in ebuilds.

# pango/pangox.h is included
$ grep -re pangox\.h .
./config/system-headers:pango/pangox.h
./js/src/config/system-headers:pango/pangox.h
./gfx/src/thebes/nsThebesDeviceContext.cpp:#include <pango/pangox.h>

# But no pango_x_* functions are used
$ grep -re pango_x_ .
$

This seems to render bug 323671 obsolete as well.

3. http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=293368

Reproducible: Always




I have tested that removing pangox.h from includes (and from the system) allows xulrunner to build without any problems, and firefox starts up without any problems as well.

Thank you.  Please add the checkin-needed keyword if you'd like someone to push this to trunk.

This would be fine on 1.9.2 also, but that's not my decision to make.

Added, thank you for your help

I added "wanted1.9.2 ?" since this also affects the ebuilds we have which use the official release packages (instead of building from source). Hence we'd like it if this could go into 1.9.2.
