Description

ScummVM exits with the following error:

$ ScummVM.app/Contents/MacOS/scummvm Using configuration file: /Users/trondare/Library/Preferences/ScummVM Preferences 2008-06-23 17:06:01.350 scummvm[44040:10b] Warning once: This application, or a library it uses, is using NSQuickDrawView, which has been deprecated. Apps should cease use of QuickDraw and move to Quartz. Couldn't load fontfile_normal font 'helvr12-l1.bdf'!

Starts up fine if I use --gui-theme=classic.

This is ScummVM 0.12.0 r32761 configured and built like this:

LDFLAGS="-L/opt/local/lib" CXX="g++-mp-4.3" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=core2 -msse4.1 -pipe" CPPFLAGS="-I/opt/local/include" \ ./configure --prefix=/opt/local --disable-debug --enable-cruise && make bundle

Very odd. The file helvr12-l1.bdf is part of gui/themes/modern.zip, which is in turn copied into the .app bundle, and thus should be found automatically there. Can you please verify that ScummVM.app/Contents/Resources/modern.zip exists?

BTW, offtopic: If you want to optimize for your system, try using "-fast", which should give better results than your above options.

$ unzip -l /Applications/ScummVM.app/Contents/Resources/modern.zip | grep helvr12-l1.bdf 23108 01-31-06 03:55 helvr12-l1.bdf

It's there and it contains the fontfile. Very odd indeed. It did work a month ago, I just recently did an svn up and it broke. I found another guy seeing the same thing after a quick google search.

-fast doesn't seem to be an option in GCC 4.3, those optimizations are just the minimum that I have enabled in my var anyways. My cpu is pretty fast too :)

comment:4 by fingolfin, 16 years ago

Maybe you have set an invalid themepath? Try removing the themepath from your config file. Does that help?

Regarding -fast: AThis option is an Apple specific option, so it won't be available in FSF GCC builds -- are you using a self-compiled GCC by chance, or is this from some NDA Apple pre-release?

Are you building with zlib? I think I've seen this behavior when zlib was disabled.

Hm, didn't notice until now, neither zlib or any of my other libraries are getting built in. This is true for both my machine at home and at work, which I normally build ScummVM on.

When I run configure, 'mktemp' seems to do something weird:

$ LDFLAGS="-L/opt/local/lib" CPPFLAGS="-I/opt/local/include" ./configure --prefix=/opt/local --disable-debug --enable-cruise usage: mktemp [-d] [-q] [-t prefix] [-u] template ... mktemp [-d] [-q] [-u] -t prefix Running ScummVM configure...

After a closer look I found this in configure:

# Determine a tmp file name, using mktemp(1) when available. if type mktemp > /dev/null 2>&1 ; then TMPO=`mktemp` else TMPO=${_srcdir}/scummvm-conf fi

Changing this into i.e. TMPO=`mktemp /tmp/foo` fixes things.

comment:8 by SF/trondah, 16 years ago

I've just confirmed that mktemp without arguments does the right thing on Linux, but BSD mktemp is different.

comment:9 by jvprat, 16 years ago

I've commited the fix for mktemp usage. Thanks for reporting it.

Anyway, the original error message should probably be changed to point to this issue in case it isn't built with zlib support. What about adding at the end "(this may be inside a zip file but zlib support is disabled)"?
