Description Murray Campbell 2004-06-07 17:11:30 UTC
When I tried to emerge media-sound/lilypond I got errors about "-- -" being an invalid option to t1asm during the font generation part of the compile (sorry, I didn't save the output). "equery belongs t1asm" got two results for /usr/bin/t1asm: app-text/t1utils-1.28 and media-libs/freetype-1.3.1-r3. It appears that the actual version was 1.2, presumably from freetype. I re-emerged t1utils, verified that it was indeed a new version (1.28) and then successfully emerged lilypond.

Would it maybe be better to have freetype depend on t1utils?

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge t1utils
2.emerge freetype
3.emerge lilypond
Actual Results:  
Compile fails during font building with errors from t1asm

Expected Results:  
Lilypond compiles and builds fonts successfully.

Fixed in CVS. (Don't install t1asm and getafm from freetype-1)
Thanks for the bug report. I didn't add t1utils to freetype's RDEPEND,
because t1asm is in freetype1-contrib and seems optional.
