Description Rob Kruus 2003-09-03 13:00:02 UTC 
Under src_compile for ijs the econf lines reads:
econf --prefix=${D}/usr
which leads gs to have an incorrect search path:
gs --help
<snip>
Search path:
   . : {PORTAGE_TMPDIR}//usr/share/ghostscript/7.05/lib : {PORTAGE_TMP_DIR}
//usr/share/ghostscript/fonts :
   /usr/share/fonts/default/ghostscript : /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1 :
   /usr/share/fonts/default/TrueType : /usr/lib/DPS/outline/base :
   /usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/Type1 : /usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType

Changing to econf --prefix=/usr leads to the correct search path.
This would affect printing with cups (noticed in the error_log)

The econf line is OK. 
 
But it seems that sometimes gs compiles with this portage stuff in path, I had several bug reports 
regarding it, recompiling fixes it. I'll leave this open for other guys having this problem.
Comment 2 Heinrich Wendel (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-11-29 12:10:27 UTC 
I haven't heared of anybody having the issue with 7.07.1, so i'll close it.
