Trying to run gizmo ( a im/iphone system ) i found that i needed libtiff in 32 bits mode.
there is no gizmo package in the tree.. beside that, media-libs/tiff is already in emul-baselibs: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/base/amd64/emul/emul-content.txt
I actually know that Simon. I am supposed to bring it to the tree. sam ~ # tar tvfj /usr/portage/distfiles/emul-linux-x86-baselibs-2.5.tar.bz2 |grep tiff -rwxr-xr-x root/root 327180 2005-12-05 16:46:50 emul/linux/x86/usr/lib/libtiff.so.3.7.3 lrwxrwxrwx root/root 0 2005-09-06 15:41:23 emul/linux/x86/usr/lib/libtiff.so -> libtiff.so.3.7.3 -rwxr-xr-x root/root 8052 2005-12-05 16:47:01 emul/linux/x86/usr/lib/libtiffxx.so.3.7.3 lrwxrwxrwx root/root 0 2005-09-06 15:41:23 emul/linux/x86/usr/lib/libtiff.so.3 -> libtiff.so.3.7.3 lrwxrwxrwx root/root 0 2005-09-06 15:41:31 emul/linux/x86/usr/lib/libtiffxx.so.3 -> libtiffxx.so.3.7.3 lrwxrwxrwx root/root 0 2005-09-06 15:41:31 emul/linux/x86/usr/lib/libtiffxx.so -> libtiffxx.so.3.7.3 and for gizmo: sam ~ # ldd /usr/bin/gizmo |grep tiff libtiff.so.4 => not found
i see... you could have mentioned before that you just need a different version :P i'm still being dumb: according to the ebuild attached to bug 103587, gizmo requires >=media-libs/tiff-3. That dependency is met with 3.7.3. I even merged the ~amd64 3.7.4, but it doesn't provide a *.so.4 either. What version of tiff do you actually want? 3.7.4 is the most recent in the tree, btw.
please answer the questions in comment 3
From what i could find[1] some distros started naming libtiff greater that 3.6.1 as version 4. But the number of still missing libs is way to big to solve humpback@sam /opt/gizmo $ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=".:/emul/linux/x86/usr/lib/:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}" ldd ./gizmo |grep found libgconf-2.so.4 => not found libORBit-2.so.0 => not found libglade-2.0.so.0 => not found libxml2.so.2 => not found libexpat.so.1 => not found libdns_sd.so => not found libexpat.so.1 => not found libcurl.so.3 => not found [1]http://www.asmail.be/msg0055435656.html
many (all?) of these libs are provided by the emul-libs, check http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/base/amd64/emul/content.xml i assume you have them installed...
WORKSFORME
I've created a new gizmo ebuild, but I'm missing libgconf-2.so.4 from any emul-linux-x86*. Is there some reason this isn't shipped in apps-emulation/emul-linux-x86-gtklibs? This is the only missing library.
