Ciao,

I'm trying to install librasterlite2 with brew.

I made a new formula, starting from librasterlite version 1, I added the new libraries that are requested by Configure; it starts compiling and stops on this error, complaining:

==> ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/Cellar/librasterlite2/1.0.0-rc0_2

==> make install

Last 15 lines from /Users/io/Library/Logs/Homebrew/librasterlite2/02.make:

print_gif_error (GifFile->Error);

~~~~~~~ ^

rl2gif.c:753:35: error: no member named 'Error' in 'struct GifFileType'

print_gif_error (GifFile->Error);

rl2gif.c:765:34: error: no member named 'Error' in 'struct GifFileType'

print_gif_error (GifFile->Error);

~~~~~~~ ^

rl2gif.c:791:30: error: no member named 'Error' in 'struct GifFileType'

print_gif_error (GifFile->Error);

~~~~~~~ ^

9 errors generated.

How should I patch rl2gif.c, if that is necessary, any cue about what's happening otherwise?

Cheers

this looks has if the libgif is not being found

#include <gif_lib.h>

see above (missing libgif)

Also you seem to be using the alpha version (1.0.0-rc0)

http://www.gaia-gis.it/gaia-sins/librasterlite2-sources/librasterlite2-1.0.0-devel.tar.gz

- where in the 1 year a lot was changed

Mark

Thank you very much, Mark.

I tried with the newer source, I added all the dependencies. At least all the dependencies I could find, as it seems one of the dependencies, CharLS v. 2 asks for c++14 which seems not available for my machine, if I stick to brew (don't bother funny mac OS things...). CharLS v. 1 could be sufficient and was easy to build, but it missed an include (interface.h). So everything seems more involved than I expectes.
