This is driving me batty. I must be missing something simple.
I have downloaded and compiled glib2 2.31.0. That took quite a while
because I first had to download and install expat and GNU gettxt.
Those libraries compiled fine and passed their make check tests.
However, glib2 fails the GDateTime "make check" tests (e.g., /
GDateTime/equal). It seems not to be reading any of the time zone
info files in /usr/share/zoneinfo. The America/Recife tzinfo file
used by the /GDateTime/equal test is there:
$ ls -l /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Recife
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 276 Dec 5 2007 /usr/share/zoneinfo/
America/Recife
I tried defining the TZDIR envonment variable, but that did not help.
For example,
$ TZDIR=/usr/share/zoneinfo glib/tests/gdatetime
I added a couple printf()'s in the test that fails (in glib/tests/
gdatetime.c), which show that the time zone structure is coming back
as UTC:
$ TZDIR=/usr/share/zoneinfo glib/tests/gdatetime
/GDateTime/add_days: OK
/GDateTime/add_full: OK
/GDateTime/add_hours: OK
/GDateTime/add_minutes: OK
/GDateTime/add_months: OK
/GDateTime/add_seconds: OK
/GDateTime/add_weeks: OK
/GDateTime/add_years: OK
/GDateTime/compare: OK
/GDateTime/diff: OK
/GDateTime/equal:
--->America/Recife time zone abbreviation: UTC
--->UTC offset: 0
**
ERROR:gdatetime.c:196:test_GDateTime_equal: assertion failed
(g_date_time_get_utc_offset (dt1) / G_USEC_PER_SEC == (-3 * 3600)):
(0 == -10800)
Abort trap
I don't actually plan to use the GDateTime routines; I don't plan to
use glib2 at all (though I would like to experiment with it some
time). All I'm trying to do is compile the ARM QEMU emulators. I
just don't like it when make check's fail.
I'm running Mac OS X 10.5.8, Xcode 3.1.3, but I don't think that
matters.

Does anyone know what I should do on a Mac to get the GDateTime APIs
to work?
