news 28 Posted March 19, 2012 Hi, this is a quick release with workaround for the issue that libchamplain fails to "make distcheck" with newer vala versions: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=669378 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=671807 The problem is that 1. with vala 0.15 it is required to include cogl-pango-1.0 to generate the vapi files 2. vala 0.14.2 doesn't ship with cogl-pango-1.0 (but it is required) and the generation fails The workaround is to 1. include cogl-pango-1.0 during generation so it is possible to generate the vapis at least with vala 0.15 (thanks to Alexandre Rostovtsev for the patch) 2. not to regenerate vapi files during make distcheck and use the pre-generated ones so make distcheck doesn't fail on systems with vala 0.14.2. This means that the switch --enable-vala, which re-generates the vapi files, will now work only on systems with vala 0.15. But since most people don't need to generate the vapi files by themselves, they can use the pre-generated ones shipped with libchamplain and they'll have working vala bindings too.
