1 Hi,
2
3 I want to port media-libs/libgphoto2 to prefix-gentoo. The problem is
4 that dev-libs/libusb is not working on solaris. I've helped myself
5 with writing --with-libusb=/usr/sfw in the libgphoto2 ebuild - but
6 this is less portable then libusb.
7 How should this be solved?
8 - Platform depend dependencies (is this possible at all)?
9 - patching the libusb ebuild so that on solaris it creates links to
10 the solaris libusb instead of compiling it?
11 - use the usb USE flag on libgphoto2 so it can be used on systems
12 without libusb?
