Description Steffen Schwientek 2007-05-08 18:23:40 UTC

x11-apps/bdftopcf-1.0.0 won't compile, since it's missing the "Xfont" package. libXfont,  libXfontcache manually installed, but that doesn't help.

Portage Version is actual stable, 2007.0

cking for i686-pc-linux-gnu-pkg-config... no
checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config
checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes
checking for BDFTOPCF... configure: error: Package requirements (xfont) were not met:

No package 'xfont' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables BDFTOPCF_CFLAGS
and BDFTOPCF_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

Just do it; plus post emerge --info output as well.
