Description Erich 2006-05-01 22:23:48 UTC 
Sorry, as the machine that found this bug is still being installed upon, I cannot provide emerge --info. This was on an amd64 machine, which was synched just hours ago.

emerge splashutils failed when trying to compile in /usr/include/ft2build.h, which did not exist. I then ran emeger freetype, then tried splashutils again, and it worked perfectly.

I'm new to the portage system, but it seems like a missing dependency.
Comment 1 Erich 2006-05-01 22:27:04 UTC 
A thousand apologies for the terrible typing - it's late, and I've been at this install for a while.
Comment 2 Michal Januszewski (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-05-02 02:04:24 UTC 
splashutils already has a conditional dependency on freetype (dependent on whether the 'truetype' flag is set or not).

Which version of splashutils were you trying to merge?
Comment 3 Erich 2006-05-02 02:14:09 UTC 
1.1.9.8-r1, the stable build for amd64.

I had set neither truetype nor freetype, if that helps. I simply emerged freetype to fix the issue.
Comment 4 Michal Januszewski (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-07-12 03:20:43 UTC 
Could you please try the 1.1.9.10 version? I think this bug should be fixed there.
Comment 5 Michal Januszewski (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-07-14 17:18:15 UTC 
The problem should be fixed in splashutils-1.3.
