It's a mistake from the maintainer of the tiff ebuild. For some reason |
14 |
he thought that an Objective C compiler is needed to build |
15 |
media-libs/tiff. It's been masked now by the maintainer. If you don't |
16 |
want to wait for mirrors to pick up the mask and do "emerge --sync" |
17 |
again, please mask this version until the mistake is fixed: |
18 |
|
19 |
echo "=media-libs/tiff-3.8.2-r6" >> /etc/portage/package.mask |
