Bug 15951 – imgSeek-0.6.4.ebuild (New Package)

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Ricardo Niederberger 2003-02-18 15:33:31 UTC]

Hello,
Attached is imgSeek-0.6.4.ebuild.

imgSeek is a GNU/Linux photo collection manager and viewer with content-based search and many other features. The query is expressed either as a rough sketch painted by the user or as another image you supply (or an image in your collection).  
More details at http://imgseek.sourceforge.net/

I suggest media-gfx/imgSeek. 
Python libraries will get installed to /usr/lib/python/site-packages/imgSeekLib and data files to
/usr/imgSeekLib/.
I believe I will have to change the distutils install script to install data on /usr/share/imgSeek or something. I'm also not sure about case issues with the ebuild name.

This ebuild depend on Python, Imaging, ImageMagick and PyQt.

Thanks.

Should this go in dev-python?

Fails to start with me:

$ imgSeek
Starting imgSeek, please wait ...
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/imgSeekLib/ImgDB.py", line 50, in ?
    import imgdb

SystemExit

Looks like it's looking for libMagick-5.5.3.so.0, but I have /usr/lib/libMagick-5.5.4-Q16.so.0. Shouldn't it be looking for the symlink /usr/lib/libMagick.so?

imgdb.so is compiled with the options and switches provided by Magick++-config, so it ends up being linked with "-lMagick++", "-lMagick", "-ljbig", etc.
I don't know why the imgdb.so you compiled ended up linked against an ImageMagick lib you don't even have on your system.
I also believe gcc should resolve -lMagick to /usr/lib/libMagick.so which in its turn should be a symlink to an existing libMagick.so.x.x

Thanks for the information. Re-emerging imageMagick solved the problem.

remerging imagemagick apparently sorted it.
