libglibmm-2.4-dev seems to be buggy on ppc

Thanks for your bug report. Can you please attach the build logs of this?

here is the log.

i did reported the bug to BMPx bugtracker too, cause i'm not sure where the bug come from.

Well it is not a BMPx bug (i've closed it on our bugtracker as 'not fixable') seems like dholbach has taken notice of it so we'll have to wait until it gets fixed in glibmm upstream.

(Might be some kind of linker/compiler issue still, though)

Does

sudo apt-get build-dep regexxer; fakeroot apt-get source -b regexxer

work for you?

seems to work fine:

#############
echo "langpack.mk: add translation domain to regexxer"; \
        if [ -e ./po/Makefile ]; then \
            DOMAIN=$(grep --max-count 1 '^GETTEXT_PACKAGE[[:space:]]*=' ./po/Makefile | sed 's/^.*=[[:space:]]*\([^[:space:]]\)/\1/'); \
            if [ "$DOMAIN" ]; then \
                for d in $(find debian/regexxer -type f \( -name "*.desktop" -o -name "*.directory" \) ); do \
                    echo "langpack.mk: Adding translation domain $DOMAIN to $d..."; \
                    echo "X-Ubuntu-Gettext-Domain=$DOMAIN" >> $d; \
                done; \
                for d in $(find debian/regexxer -type f -name "*.server" ); do \
                    echo "langpack.mk: Adding translation domain $DOMAIN to $d..."; \
                    sed -i "s/<oaf_server\>/<oaf_server ubuntu-gettext-domain=\"$DOMAIN\"/" $d; \
                done; \
            fi; \
        fi

maybe you can close the bug...
i builded succesfull BMPx-0.34rc1, which has libglibmm-dev as build-dep too.

certainly the bug was from BMPx.

Just FWIW, and i'm sure Daniel will agree with me, it can hardly be a BMPx error if the destructor for ustring is not known to the so lib (Where the ctor seems to be or it would have complained about that). We also use very conservative flags by default (only -O2 and -ggdb3, latter only being for debugging), and recently since recent 0.33.x and 0.34.0 RCx no flags at all since Fedora Core 6, on which i develop BMPx, has a problem with g++ and binutils which prevents BMPx from building correctly at all with -O2 enabled, so this issue is if anything at all a linker issue, and was for you most likely resolved the same way it was for me: because of the now-missing CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS. I just wanted to annotate that because it "certainly" was "not" a bug from BMPx...

Can you attach the bmpx source package to the bug? http://depot.effraie.org was down, when I tried. Which compiler of which version do you use? Is this stock edgy?

the source (succesfully) package is here:
http://mental-ppc.tuxfamily.org/dists/dists/edgy-mppc/incoming/

( http://depot.effraie.org is mostly for my own usage, when i build software as e17 or beryl for ppc)

i'm not sure to understand your question about my compiler (my english is poor). hope this will be an answer :

effraie@ubook:~$ apt-cache policy gcc
gcc:
  Installé : 4:4.1.1-6ubuntu3
  Candidat : 4:4.1.1-6ubuntu3
 Table de version :
 *** 4:4.1.1-6ubuntu3 0
        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com edgy/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
effraie@ubook:~$ apt-cache policy pbuilder
pbuilder:
  Installé : 0.155ubuntu3
  Candidat : 0.155ubuntu3
 Table de version :
 *** 0.155ubuntu3 0
        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com edgy/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

0.34.0~rc1-bmp0ubuntu2 from http://mental-ppc.tuxfamily.org/dists/dists/edgy-mppc/incoming/ builds fine in ppc edgy pbuilder - I'm afraid it looks like a configuration problem on your end and not like a glibmm2.4 bug.

just small adjustement: i know 0.34.0~rc1-bmp0ubuntu2 builds fine, cause i did it.

the problem was during building bmpx-0.32.0.
