Bugzilla Bug 73352

Well, even if I set the use flag to USE="-arts", knights' ./configure searches
for arts components mcopidl and the ./configure fails due to missing
components/programs.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. arts not being installed execute: USE="-arts" emerge games-board/knights


Actual Results:  
./configure fails with:
checking for mcopidl... not found
configure: error: The important program mcopidl was not found!
Please check whether you installed aRts correctly.


Expected Results:  
it should have installed games-board/knights

Fixed in CVS.  Thanks for the bug report.

Well, I tried installing arts and knights, but it seems that some more kde
packages need to get recompiled with arts enabled before knights can pass the ./configure:

looks like you'll need kde-base/kdelibs as well.  See if merging that first
gets you going please.

Yes, that did it. Rebuilding kde/kdelibs with the use flag arts set, built the
required libraries. games-board/knights build without any problems.

ok, this needs use-based deps which isn't available yet.  Since you've got it
working I'll go ahead and mark this fixed for now.  Thanks for testing.

I don't think this should be marked fixed yet. Knights still can't be compiled
without arts (USE="-arts"). Installing it with arts is not an alternative on
some systems.

No.

Knights has a hard dependency on arts.  The USE="arts" crap comes from the KDE
eclass, and isn't a part of the ebuild.  At any rate, the eclass handles it now.
 I'm not sure when this was fixed but to make this abundantly clear, it is
impossible to compile knights without arts.

Created an attachment (id=77885) [edit]
knights-0.6.ebuild.patch

I added an informational message about arts not being set. I cannot abort as I
know how to check for a global flag, not for a local one. I 'd check for
kdelibs arts use flags.
