Bug 4936

Summary: XCF support broken in official macOS .frameworks

Description Austin Hurst 2020-01-11 03:26:54 UTC 
In the process of rewriting the test suite for pysdl2, I think I stumbled on another XCF bug in SDL2_image: the official libsdl.org macOS .frameworks fail (i.e. return a NULL pointer) when loading XCF files (same as Bug #4935), and additionally fails to identify XCF images with IMG_isXCF (unlike Bug #4935). The same tests with the same file work fine on Linux, 64-bit Windows, and macOS with SDL2_image installed using Homebrew instead of the official binaries. You can check out the relevant Travis CI logs here (note: the tests w/ brew-installed SDL2 are also failing here, but for an unrelated SDL2_ttf/brew bug): https://travis-ci.org/a-hurst/py-sdl2/builds/635073067

I'm more a Python guy than a C guy, so I'm not really equipped to figure out the root of the issue or offer up a patch, but the fact that it works fine with brewed SDL2_image but not the official binaries would point to something related to the build process. Anyway, the bug's not really preventing me from doing anything important, but I figured it was worth reporting.

Cheers,

- Austin
