failed make for uCube

[Duncan McGreggor]

Hey Stephen,

When I try to build uCube I get a failure:

ucube/app.cpp:250: undefined reference to `geis_event_dispatch(_GeisInstance*)'

I'll past the full thing in a comment so that I don't gum up the description.

Here's the output from make (a second run, so less verbose):

[Stephen M. Webb (bregma)]

uCube requires at least version 1.0.12 of the geis development libraries to compile.

[Stephen M. Webb (bregma)]

utouch-geis 1.0.12 or later needs to be packaged and made available publicly

[Duncan McGreggor (oubiwann)]

Stephen, is there any way of making uCube work with previous versions of GEIS?

[Stephen M. Webb (bregma)]

uCube will run against earlier versions of libutouch-geis without problem but it will not build against any version of libutouch-geis-dev earlier than 1.0.12 because of C++ name mangling issues.

[Stephen M. Webb (bregma)]

The fix for this is included in release 1.0.12.

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package utouch-geis - 1.0.13-0ubuntu1
