So they need to be patched im afraid. For example gnome-panel-1.4.2 built fine when i added -lpng -lz -lm to it's config script. spider@gentoo.org 2002-10-29 13:26:49 0000 okay, then we need to patch and nudge at upstream people. jmbradle@ncsu.edu 2002-10-29 14:49:21 0000 more people having problems with libpng: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=19967&highlight=libpng http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=20216&highlight=libpng foser@gentoo.org 2002-10-29 19:22:23 0000 Ok a fixed gnome-panel is in (1.4.2-r2). please test foser@gentoo.org 2002-10-29 19:32:04 0000 And a fixed gnome-core (1.4.2-r1). Please test - can't test this one myself at all. angelm75@optonline.net 2002-10-29 20:57:29 0000 gnome-core (1.4.2-r1) emerged no problems :) Gnome started no problems after emerging the new package. zealott@attbi.com 2002-10-30 19:53:08 0000 Whence might one find a copy of the gnome-core-1.4.2-r1 ebuild? angelm75@optonline.net 2002-10-30 20:14:09 0000 For zealott@attbi.com emerge rsync cd /usr/portage/gnome-base/gnome-panel emerge gnome-panel-1.4.2-r1.ebuild Thats it :) zealott@attbi.com 2002-10-30 22:23:37 0000 I have gnome-panel-1.4.2-r1. It ebuilds fine. I need a gnome-core that will ebuild without an error. I didn't get it from emerge sync. ken@cgi101.com 2002-10-31 01:14:45 0000 Created an attachment (id=5229) Updated ebuild to "fix" libpng rather than fix every ebuild that uses -lpng without -lz & -lm. I decided to just have libpng compiled with -lz & -lm in them (like 1.2.4 and all the other distros). The line I added was to the sed in src_compile (line #21): -e "s/OBJSDLL = /OBJSDLL = -lz -lm /" \ ken@cgi101.com 2002-10-31 01:36:29 0000 Created an attachment (id=5230) Patch to libpng.1.2.5.ebuild Same as the above fix, just in patch form, rather than the whole ebuild. foser@gentoo.org 2002-10-31 06:27:18 0000 Hmm... sorry i hadn't committed the updated gnome-core. It should work now (1.4.2-r1). About the libpng patch, it's a possible solution but i don't like it much. Upstream should use pkg-config or similar to find out the deps, not hardcode them as they did here. Better get this fixed upstream, then have us 'fix' libpng every release. So far only 2 packages really affected. I don't think that's much. zealott@attbi.com 2002-10-31 08:09:57 0000 gnome-panel compiles just fine. I need a gnome-core that can compile. I don't have gnome-core-1.4.2-r1 in my portage tree after syncing. foser@gentoo.org 2002-10-31 08:14:20 0000 gnome-core-1.4.2-r1 is in the tree right now. give it some time to progate. zealott@attbi.com 2002-10-31 08:27:15 0000 Okay d:^) I got it. Just a little confusion on my part. gnome-core-1.4.2-r1 is compiling as I write. I now know that at least the first problem is fixed. Thank you all so much. ken@cgi101.com 2002-10-31 10:12:17 0000 Well, developers of these programs are expecting zlib and math to be already compiled into libpng. You can add pdflib to the list of things that you will need to fix. vapier@gentoo.org 2002-10-31 10:21:33 0000 i already fixed pdflib ;) foser@gentoo.org 2002-10-31 16:25:09 0000 Well, developers shouldnt expect anything from a package then specified by the package itsself. And im sure they will adapt. ab0781@wayne.edu 2002-11-15 09:24:12 0000 I was having the same problems. The updated ebuild (Updated ebuild to "fix" libpng) corrected the errors. mkeadle@gmail.com 2002-11-22 04:32:30 0000 add media-video/gqcam to the mix. needs to be fixed. also, the notion that this is an upsteam problem may be correct, but that's not much of an excuse to offer a user when something breaks. foser@gentoo.org 2002-11-22 07:34:37 0000 Thats was not so much a comment in general, but my objection to the proposed fix. foser@gentoo.org 2002-11-26 19:03:43 0000 gqcam is fixed foser@gentoo.org 2002-12-20 17:37:48 0000 I had a mail conversation with the current libpng maintainer and it turned out altough the choice was made to do it this way, by now they had decided to revert it back 2.1.4 style again for the next release. So I fixed libpng itsself. libpng-1.2.5-r1 is in, thanks all for the help. 5229 2002-10-31 01:14 0000 Updated ebuild to "fix" libpng libpng-1.2.5.ebuild text/plain IyBDb3B5cmlnaHQgMTk5OS0yMDAyIEdlbnRvbyBUZWNobm9sb2dpZXMsIEluYy4KIyBEaXN0cmli dXRlZCB1bmRlciB0aGUgdGVybXMgb2YgdGhlIEdOVSBHZW5lcmFsIFB1YmxpYyBMaWNlbnNlIHYy CiMgJEhlYWRlcjogL2hvbWUvY3Zzcm9vdC9nZW50b28teDg2L21lZGlhLWxpYnMvbGlicG5nL2xp YnBuZy0xLjIuNS5lYnVpbGQsdiAxLjEgMjAwMi8xMC8yNSAxNjo1MDoxNiB2YXBpZXIgRXhwICQK CgpTPSR7V09SS0RJUn0vJHtQfQpERVNDUklQVElPTj0ibGlicG5nIgpTUkNfVVJJPSJmdHA6Ly9z d3JpbmRlLm5kZS5zd3JpLmVkdS9wdWIvcG5nL3NyYy8ke1B9LnRhci5neiIKSE9NRVBBR0U9Imh0 dHA6Ly93d3cubGlicG5nLm9yZy8iClNMT1Q9IjEuMiIKTElDRU5TRT0iYXMtaXMiCktFWVdPUkRT PSJ4ODYgcHBjIHNwYXJjIHNwYXJjNjQgYWxwaGEiCgpERVBFTkQ9Ij49c3lzLWxpYnMvemxpYi0x LjEuNCIKCnNyY19jb21waWxlKCkgewoJc2VkIC1lICJzOlpMSUJMSUI9Li4vemxpYjpaTElCTElC PS91c3IvbGliOiIgXAoJCS1lICJzOlpMSUJJTkM9Li4vemxpYjpaTElCSU5DPS91c3IvaW5jbHVk ZToiIFwKCQktZSAicy8tTzMvJHtDRkxBR1N9LyIgXAoJCS1lICJzOnByZWZpeD0vdXNyL2xvY2Fs OnByZWZpeD0vdXNyOiIgXAoJCS1lICJzL09CSlNETEwgPSAvT0JKU0RMTCA9IC1seiAtbG0gLyIg XAoJCQlzY3JpcHRzL21ha2VmaWxlLmxpbnV4ID4gTWFrZWZpbGUKCgllbWFrZSB8fCBkaWUKfQoK c3JjX2luc3RhbGwoKSB7Cglkb2RpciAvdXNyL3tpbmNsdWRlLGxpYn0KCWRvZGlyIC91c3Ivc2hh cmUvbWFuCgltYWtlIFwKCQlERVNURElSPSR7RH0gXAoJCU1BTlBBVEg9L3Vzci9zaGFyZS9tYW4g XAoJCWluc3RhbGwgfHwgZGllCgkKIwlybSAke0R9L3Vzci9saWIvbGlicG5nLnNvCiMJcm0gJHtE fS91c3IvbGliL2xpYnBuZy5hCiMJcm0gJHtEfS91c3IvaW5jbHVkZS9wbmcuaAojCXJtICR7RH0v dXNyL2luY2x1ZGUvcG5nY29uZi5oCgkKCWRvbWFuICouWzM1XQoJZG9kb2MgQU5OT1VOQ0UgQ0hB TkdFUyBLTk9XTkJVRyBMSUNFTlNFIFJFQURNRSBUT0RPIFkyS0lORk8KfQoKcGtnX3Bvc3RpbnN0 KCkgewoJIyB0aGUgbGlicG5nIGF1dGhvcnMgcmVhbGx5IHNjcmV3ZWQgYXJvdW5kIGJldHdlZW4g MS4yLjEgYW5kIDEuMi4zCglbIC1mIC91c3IvbGliL2xpYnBuZy5zby4zLjEuMi4xIF0gJiYgcm0g L3Vzci9saWIvbGlicG5nLnNvLjMuMS4yLjEKfQo= 5230 2002-10-31 01:36 0000 Patch to libpng.1.2.5.ebuild libpng.patch text/plain LS0tIGxpYnBuZy0xLjIuNS5lYnVpbGQJMjAwMi0xMC0zMCAyMzoyMzoxNS4wMDAwMDAwMDAgLTA4 MDAKKysrIGxpYnBuZy0xLjIuNS5lYnVpbGQJMjAwMi0xMC0zMCAyMzoyMzowMS4wMDAwMDAwMDAg LTA4MDAKQEAgLTE4LDYgKzE4LDcgQEAKIAkJLWUgInM6WkxJQklOQz0uLi96bGliOlpMSUJJTkM9 L3Vzci9pbmNsdWRlOiIgXAogCQktZSAicy8tTzMvJHtDRkxBR1N9LyIgXAogCQktZSAiczpwcmVm aXg9L3Vzci9sb2NhbDpwcmVmaXg9L3VzcjoiIFwKKwkJLWUgInMvT0JKU0RMTCA9IC9PQkpTRExM ID0gLWx6IC1sbSAvIiBcCiAJCQlzY3JpcHRzL21ha2VmaWxlLmxpbnV4ID4gTWFrZWZpbGUKIAog CWVtYWtlIHx8IGRpZQo=
