Description Rafał Mużyło 2007-11-03 19:21:08 UTC
Issue 1 (trivial):
in the ebuild if djvu use flag is set in src_compile one of the sed lines reports as unterminated cause there's a line break in it (it's the second line)

Issue 2 (not trivial):
one of the dependencies is
jpeg2k? ( media-libs/jasper )
however ghostscript does NOT use it:
its configure.ac prefers building local (static) version from the tree.
Unfortunately, ghostscript authors have modified their copy of jasper sources in a way that makes it incompatible with upstream jasper, so at this time it not possible to use upstream jasper for ghostscript.
Comment 1 Rafał Mużyło 2007-11-03 19:24:23 UTC
I wonder if it's the same with zlib, ghostscript prefers local copy too, haven't checked if it's compatible.
Comment 2 Timo Gurr (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-02-15 15:08:24 UTC
Thanks for reporting, this is fixed in app-text/ghostscript-gpl-8.61-r2, for the remaining zlib see bug #206893.
