Vips is an advanced threaded image processing system designed for high colour accuracy and very large images developed at the National Gallery (London). It works on most *nixes including MacOSX. See: http://www.vips.ecs.ac.uk. I've made two ebuilds. One for the library / command line interface and one for the GTK user interface (called nip). Vips optionally uses lcms, tiff, jpeg, fftw, imagemagick and png. Nip requires gtk+, gtk+extra, glib, libxml2 and of course, vips. The ebuilds are very simple and I've tested them on several machines. I thought media-libs would be a good place for vips and media-gfx for nip. Thanks, Ruven Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.

Sorry, that URL should have been http://www.vips.ecs.soton.ac.uk
I've updated and attached the ebuilds to the latest version of vips (7.8.12) and nip (7.8.12).

There is a problem with the fftw libraryes. Now in gentoo the ebuild is changed and is more general so I suggest in the ebuild change: fftw? ( =dev-libs/fftw-2* ) whit fftw? ( sci-libs/fftw ) cheers, Denix

Hey guys, how about finally including this in portage. It's great software and the package has been included in Debian (testing) for a while now and is also in the FreeBSD ports system. Is Gentoo now less cutting edge than Debian!?!!! Sure not! ;-)
Please provide the ebuild as plain text files. I hope to have a look at those packages during the weekend, Debian has more people than we have, sorry for the delay.
They are simple asci text files. Bugzilla has just confused the mime type.
Hi All, I'm a VIPS user and also the maintainer of the Win installer. Why is there an installer for win but not an ebuild for Gentoo? I've tested this ebuild and used it on our production server as well as on other workstations without problems, so why is it not yet in the portage tree after so much time? Thanks, Denis
ebuilds in portage. Sorry for the delay, but keep in mind that we are few and that we are working on gentoo using our free time.
OK, thanks for this. I, of course, greatly appreciate your efforts. But this has been waiting in bugzilla for nearly 2 years! And why have you removed all the use flags from the vips ebuild? Vips can optionally be built with threading, lcms, tiff and imagemagick support etc. These are all use flags that exist already for other packages. One of the great strengths of Gentoo is the ability to configure your system just the way you want it. Configuring for something like multi-threading support is pretty fundamental in my opinion.
I messed up during the commit... now should work as supposed
Thanks :-)
