Keywords: | Platform: Linux

-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
When linking gui/wxpython/vdigit, ld returns:
could not find -lgdi

I assume that -lgdi only applies to windows, not for linux.

Comment (by fundawang):

Maybe you should backport gui/wxpython/vdigit/Makefile from trunk to 6.4
branch, it also fixes the problem of linking wxPseudoDC

Comment (by neteler):

A patch is proposed in ticket #58 and will be backported over the next
days for RC3.

As dirty hack in the spec file:

{{{
...
%prep
%setup -q %{?_with_svn:-b1 -n %{name}_%{svnver}}%{!?_with_svn:-n
grass-%{version}}
%patch0 -p0 -b .gcc43
# work around suboptimal pseudoDC usage
ln -s /usr/%{_lib}/python2.5/site-packages/wx-2.8-gtk2-unicode/wx/_gdi_.so
./lib/

%build
...
}}}

Don't forget to use CXX as linker.

This is know issue, no reason why to create new ticket for it. Closing.
