[Slackbuilds-users] xmlsec1-1.2.23 fails to build on Slackware64 14.2 with seamonkey-2.46-x86_64-1_slack14.2

[Konrad J Hambrick]

Willy --

The latest xmlsec SlackBuild fails with the latest Seamonkey Package for
Slackware64 14.2.

Pat's latest seamonkey2.46 was released with an empty ~/nspr/obsolete/
directory and there are indirect references to obsolete/protypes.h in the
xmlsec source via nspr/pratom.h.

OTOH, mozilla-nspr DOES include the obsolete/*.h files and xmlsec includes
a configure option:  --with-mozilla-ver=

This config overrides the default seamonkey-nspr/ files.

There may be ( probably is ) a better way to do this ( maybe via the
Seamonkey Spec File ??? ) but attached a patch that works ( :) at least for
the time being :) )

Thanks for today's updates !

( and thanks a zillion for cleaning up and including my f3.SlackBuild -- I
wasn't aware that gnu make would override the hard-coded PREFIX =
/usr/local in the Makefile with an exported PREFIX= variable  -- VERY handy
to know )

-- kjh

This is the make error using the original xmlsec.SlackBuild:
