Thanks for your reply. I have successfully used ebuild and install 90 files. |
16 |
Very impressed with the result. |
17 |
I would appreciate your advice re the following: |
18 |
media-libs/libgd-1.8.3-r1.ebuild and media-libs/libgd-1.8.3-r2.ebuild. |
19 |
The r2 file fails as it does not have a matching digest file. The r1 file |
20 |
fails: |
21 |
#ebuild libgd-1.8.3-r1.ebuild merge |
22 |
error: gdttf.c:21: freetype.h : No such file or directory. |
23 |
Previously installed freetype-2.0.1-r1.ebuild. |
24 |
Found: using find: |
25 |
/usr/X11R6/include/freetype2/freetype/freetype.h |
26 |
/usr/include/freetype2/freetype/freetype.h |
27 |
The r1 file I think was using /usr/include/freetype/freetype.h. However |
28 |
altering paths caused more problems. |
29 |
libgd is a dependency of dev-lang/php-4/php-4.0.4.ebuild which is the real |
30 |
target for me. |
31 |
This is the only problem I have had in 90 downloads. Great stuff really. |
32 |
Can you help? I have been to the www.boutell.com site and see that versions |
33 |
1.8.4 and 2.0.1 beta are now available but this wont help with ebuild. |
34 |
freetype is still at version 2.0.1. |
35 |
|
