Failed to build due to invalid g-ir-scanner option

[cuihaoleo]

Describe the bug
Git version failed to build on Arch Linux, due to invalid g-ir-scanner option.

To Reproduce

$ mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake ..
$ make

will fail with:

[ 72%] Built target workrave-gtk4-private-1.0
[ 73%] Generating Workrave-2.0.gir
Usage: g-ir-scanner [options] sources

g-ir-scanner: error: no such option: -m
make[2]: *** [ui/applets/common/src/CMakeFiles/gir-girs.dir/build.make:90: ui/applets/common/src/Workrave-2.0.gir] Error 2
make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/Makefile2:1751: ui/applets/common/src/CMakeFiles/gir-girs.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [Makefile:156: all] Error 2

Expected behavior
It builds.

Linux (please complete the following information in case you encountered the bug on Linux):

• Distribution: Arch Linux
• Distribution Version: rolling, latest
• Desktop Environment: KDE
• Workrave Version: Git HEAD (bc8ca1a)

Additional context

It seems the problematic options came from GTK relevant CFLAGS:

The CFLAGS then came from /usr/lib/pkgconfig/graphene-1.0.pc:

prefix=/usr
libdir=${prefix}/lib
includedir=${prefix}/include

graphene_has_sse2=1
graphene_has_gcc=1
graphene_has_neon=0

I added a few prints in cmake files and this seems to be where the options were added:

I'm not familiar with CMake but hopefully this help to locate the issue!

Do you have the gobject-introspection package installed?

[cuihaoleo]

Do you have the gobject-introspection package installed?

Yes. Please see the error message. It was about invaid options being supplied to the command. The command was there.

[cuihaoleo]

If I remove -mfpmath=sse -msse -msse2 from /usr/lib/pkgconfig/graphene-1.0.pc , which is a dirty workaround, I can confirm that workrave will compile.

[cuihaoleo]

Another workaround is to disable GTK4:
sed -i 's%(GTK4_FOUND)%(FALSE)%' "$pkgname/ui/applets/common/src/CMakeLists.txt"

This should be fixed in 1.11 beta 11
