Description Kyle Liddell 2003-07-02 17:44:04 UTC

When trying to emerge gnome-spell-1.0.4, the compile fails with the following:

./configure: line 1: aspell: command not found
checking for new_aspell_config in -laspell...no
configure: error: gnome-spell cannot be built without aspell library

emerging aspell (I emerged ver 0.50.3), then emerging gnome-spell allows
gnome-spell to compile.  Aspell wasn't emerged automatically when I did emerge
gnome-spell, or emerge world or system.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge gnome-spell
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Failed because of missing aspell library.

Expected Results:  
Compiled.

thanks for your report. it was a typo in the ebuilds that stripped the aspell deps. now fixed in portage.

sys-apps/portage-2.0.49-r15

Comment 8 James Tunstall 2003-11-15 11:49:12 UTC

Confirmed, I experienced the same error and remedied it in the same way.

Portage 2.0.49-r15.  If you would like me to upload the command line error output or my emerge --info please let me know.
