Description Markos Chandras (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-02-19 15:03:50 UTC 
checking ftd2xx.h presence... yes
checking for ftd2xx.h... yes
checking for library containing FT_GetLibraryVersion... no
configure: error: You appear to be missing the FTD2xx driver library.


I guess this is because the ftd2xx was moved to /opt and is not on the standard LDPATH


/opt/lib64/libftd2xx.so.0.4.16
/usr/lib/debug/opt/lib64/libftd2xx.so.0.4.16.debug
/opt/lib64/libftd2xx.so.0
/opt/lib64/libftd2xx.so

Fixed ebuild

In configure.in file, the package hardcodes -L/usr/local/lib to LDFLAGS. As a result of which, it is unable to detect ftd2xx which is located on /opt/lib64 even if the latter installs an env.d file. However the env.d file is required for runtime. Therefore I hardcoded the missing path to the LDFLAGS and now openocd works fine with ftd2xx
