FreeBSD is not supported?

ekd123 opened this issue · comments

This platform and/or version of gobject-introspection are not supported by GirFFI. Please file bugs for any errors found.

uname
FreeBSD bsd.laptop.mike 9.1-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 9.1-PRERELEASE #2 r241254M: Sun Oct 7 00:33:22 CST 2012 root@bsd.laptop.mike:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64

pkg info gobject-introspection
gobject-introspection-1.32.1_1 Generate interface introspection data for GObject libraries

In fact I'm not sure what does "support" mean...

That message is a warning message, and means that GirFFI coudn't find a known good gobject-introspection library file (i.e., girepository-1.0.so.1, or girepository-1.0.so.0), but that it succesfully asked ffi to load some library for girepositiory-1.0.

More generally, 'not supported' means that I cannot test whether GirFFI works or will continue to work on your platform, in this case FreeBSD.

That said, since FreeBSD is a sensible Unix, GirFFI will probably work.

I should probably change the warning to make things more clear.

I have removed the warning messages.
