[Slackbuilds-users] physfs 3.x breaks packages

[CRTS]

Hi,

I just had two packages break because of the new physfs 3.0.2.
The problem is that the macro '__EXPORT__' is no longer defined
the new version and must be replaced with by 'PHYSFS_DECL' by
all packages that have a dependency on 'physfs' - at least
that is how I got those packages to build.

In both cases the file 'physfswrops.h' had to be patched.
Here is a sample patch that I used, to give you an idea what
to look for when you create a patch for your Slackbuilds:
