Description
Created attachment 308328 patch for adding missing dependencies
I am a researcher from the Software Analysis and Intelligence Lab (SAIL) from Queen's University in Kingston, Canada. Currently, we are working on an approach for finding missing dependencies in build files and we are using glib as a case study. We have found several bugs which I will submit in the following days, together with a patch for fixing them.
The targets: marshalers.h depend on the output of glib-genmarshal but not on the source of glib-genmarshal itself. So when this source changes, the targets are not rebuilt.
The included patch adds these dependencies for the latest HEAD. We observed that these dependencies are missing since at least version 2.36.0.
Patch 308328, "patch for adding missing dependencies":
marshalers.patch
Version: 2.45.x
