Compilation error (typedef Rectangle)

[Former user]

Currently compilation on Windows is broken due to the following problem in perspective.cc:

In file included from C:/msys64/home/Roel/art/rtgui/perspective.cc:19:
C:/msys64/home/Roel/art/rtgui/controllines.h:25:9: error: 'Rectangle' does not name a type; did you mean 'AtkRectangle'?
   25 | typedef Rectangle EditRectangle; // workaround to compilation errors with exiv2 0.27.3 on windows
      |         ^~~~~~~~~
      |         AtkRectangle

I encountered the same issue when resolving merge conflicts with the exiv2 branch in RawTherapee yesterday. I ended up renaming the class (for ART inedit.cc) and replacing all occurrences in the code.

For some reason my locally checked out repo was not updated properly. After a git reset --hard the code now compiles correctly. Sorry for the noise.
This does raise the question why I ran into trouble yesterday… but that’s not your concern

User error, sorry.
