Okay rpmbuild --target i686 works on my rawhide box  and it builds in mock
against development tree.

The -pthread issue is not a blocker for this package to get into cvs since this
does not seem to be impacting the packaged demos on my 32bit box. But you might
go out of your way and dig up some 64bit pc and ppc testers to see if this
result in operational problems on those other arches to be sure. Ralf does make
a compelling argument about the fragility of the situation long term...but the
problem he brings up is really with the glib2 pkgconfig files using -pthread. It
doesn't make a lot of since to try to correct this in your package if its a more
general problem.  I'll re-open that specific issue for discussion as a glib2 bug
and see where that goes. 

You can choose to do something in this package like manually patching the
makefile as suggested in comment #12 as a work around, but I'm not going to
demand it. If ppc or x86_64  users see functionality problems you might have to
do this patch anyways.


One small thing.. and you can do this after you import it to cvs...exclude the
zero length file:
/usr/share/doc/perl-Gnome2-Canvas-1.002/canvas_demo/ENTRYPOINT_IS_canvas.pl

Approved for import into cvs.
