cairomm headers impinge upon user namespace

[Richard Kettlewell]

My project uses autoconf in the usual way, and cairomm. However, the current cairomm in lucid has a cairommconfig.h which defines many of the symbols that autoconf's generated config.h defines. The result is build errors such as the following:

In file included from /usr/include/cairomm-1.0/cairomm/cairomm.h:34,
                 from ../graph/Graph.h:4,
                 from ../graph/TimeGraph.h:4,
                 from spoolstats.h:44,
                 from spoolstats.cc:20:
/usr/include/cairomm-1.0/cairomm/cairommconfig.h:69:1: error: "PACKAGE" redefined
In file included from ../lib/utils.h:23,
                 from spoolstats.h:34,
                 from spoolstats.cc:20:
../config.h:101:1: error: this is the location of the previous definition

cairomm should not define these symbols. (For instance, it could rename them to something starting CAIROMM_).

The fix for this particular bug should be in lucid-proposed already. See also bug #566986.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

the comment suggests that the issue is fixed in lucid updates and maverick so closing the bug now
