no explicit tiff dependency in ebuild perhaps a little patch to make it accept 3.6 would work when emerging : ... checking TIFF library version Found tiffio.h version 20030619 Found libtiff version 3.6 Incompatible TIFF Library. HylaFAX 4.1.5 requires TIFF software distribution ver 3.4 or 3.5. If you do not have up to date TIFF software on your system then you can retrieve it from the location where you obtained this software. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
There are newer versions of hylafax (-4.1.6 and -4.1.7) which do accept libtiff-3.6 in the configure script. Unfortunately both these versions of hylafax have not yet made their way into the portage tree. Both hylafax-4.1.6 and hylafax-4.1.7 build ok; the only change that may need to be made to the hylafax ebuild is taking advantage of now being able to set the OPTIMIZER variable in the configure script: src_compile() { ..... --with-SYSVINIT=/etc/init.d \ --with-INTERACTIVE=no \ --with-OPTIMIZER="${CFLAGS}" || die emake || die } It may be time for a hylafax upgrade?
Created attachment 17632 [details] ebuild for v4.1.7, include OPTIMIZER, deps version bump, commentaries, ... no econf nor emake : uses autoconf 1.92 and other prehistoric tools so --prefix is not understood
now testing... (sorry about the lag)
The 4.1.7 ebuild builds and runs fine, subject to inspection of my test fax when I get to the office. I have tiff 3.5.7-r1, so if somebody can verify that 3.6 works, then I guess we can close this out.
i tested it with 3.6 before uploading it testing the 4.1.7 now in portage, still works I mark it as solved so Thanks
