sys-boot/grub-9999's ebuild fails to bring in the freetype2 dependency. ebuild failed during econf. I lost the log in the nether regions of my fs. After 'emerge freetype', grub installs fine. The freetype dependency should be added to the ebuild. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge --unmerge freetype 2. emerge =sys-boot/grub-9999 Actual Results: ebuild fails Expected Results: Finds missing dependency and emerges it first.

bing bong, could anyone notice this and add a line in that ebuild? only a line... media-libs/freetype:2 is enough currently...

any updates to this bug?
Bug 273896 seems to be a duplicate of this too.
Oh come on people, how hard a bug is this? Just add freetype to DEPEND and this one's fixed.
Just wanted to note that this also effects the grub-1.97 ebuild so it would be nice if this dependancy can be added there as well as its currently the highest non svn version.

Just ran into this on a fresh install; the mkfont configure option was set explicitly in the build, so the freetype dependency is required: >>> Emerging (4 of 4) sys-boot/grub-1.97.1 * grub-1.97.1.tar.gz RMD160 SHA1 SHA256 size ;-) ...

Created attachment 212501 [details, diff] Patch for grub-9999.ebuild Come on, this really isn't hard. I even created a patch for you guys. Why don't you just fix this? (and maybe additionally fix the other bug that hinders grub-9999 from compiling: Bug 296013. (also created a patch for that one))
Ok, forget about the reference to the other bug ;-)
Created attachment 212600 [details, diff] patch for grub-9999.ebuild (In reply to comment #10) > Created an attachment (id=212501) [details] Paludis says that "Slot dependencies not safe for use here".

Base-system, could you please adjust the dependencies of Grub to include Freetype?
Comment on attachment 212501 [details, diff] Patch for grub-9999.ebuild no, forcing freetype on everyone is a terrible idea
grub-mkfont is only compiled when USE=freetype now http://sources.gentoo.org/sys-boot/grub/grub-1.97.1.ebuild?r1=1.2&r2=1.3 http://sources.gentoo.org/sys-boot/grub/grub-9999.ebuild?r1=1.17&r2=1.18
