Possibile patch bug with solution

[hanaishi]

Today I compiled blender 2.69 with the vb25 patch.
Blender was downloaded by the site (not git).
Patch is the last version.
All the process goes right but when I launch blender it crashes immediately with this error:
"Fatal Python error: invalid callback slots 1".

Looking back to the messages of the patch program I've noticed this message for the vb30.patch:

Hunk #1 FAILED at 44.
1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file source/blender/python/intern/bpy_app_handlers.c.rej

I modified the file by hand: these two lines were rejected
{(char *)"object_update", (char *)"Callback list - on updating an object"},
{(char *)"object_data_update", (char *)"Callback list - on updating an object's data"},

then I recompiled all again and now it's all right.

Patch is always syncronized to the git version. Use the version from git and it will compile fine.
You could also try my automatic compilation script, here is a post with some compilation info: http://forums.chaosgroup.com/showthr...053#post606053

Thank you for the info Andrei.
Usually I use the released blender version (source or compiled) but from the next time I will use the git version.

Wonderful job!

You are welcome! Using release could be a good choise, but Blender evolves so fast that it's usually better you use git version, because it contain much more fixes and features. It could be unstable, but simply don't remove your previos builds so you could use them if there are some issues with the new one.
