The mingpp.h file does not exist in media-libs/ming, but does exist in the distfile file. The emf.h file is in /usr/include/libEMF (possible fix presented below). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge ming libemf pstoedit 2. pstoedit does not support ming or emf formats because it can't find the include files. Actual Results: pstoedit didn't support ming or emf formats Expected Results: support ming and emf formats EMF Here is the diff between pstoedit-3.32.ebuild and an edited pstoedit-3.33.ebuild that correctly finds the emf.h file. I also added dependencies. 3c3 < # $Header: /home/cvsroot/gentoo-x86/media-gfx/pstoedit/pstoedit-3.32.ebuild,v 1.6 2003/09/06 23:56:39 msterret Exp $ --- > # $Header: /home/cvsroot/gentoo-x86/media-gfx/pstoedit/pstoedit-3.33.ebuild,v 1.2 2003/09/06 23:56:39 msterret Exp $ 16c16 < KEYWORDS="x86 ppc" --- > KEYWORDS="~x86 ~ppc" 18a19,20 > media-libs/libemf > media-gfx/imagemagick 27c29 < econf --- > econf --with-libemf-include=/usr/include/libEMF MING The ming problem I thought I had licked by 'doins mingpp.h' in the ming ebuild. Worked to install it in /usr/include, but pstoedit complained about: ... configure: WARNING: mingpp.h: present but cannot be compiled configure: WARNING: mingpp.h: check for missing prerequisite headers? configure: WARNING: mingpp.h: proceeding with the preprocessor's result configure: WARNING: ## ------------------------------------ ## configure: WARNING: ## Report this to bug-autoconf@gnu.org. ## configure: WARNING: ## ------------------------------------ ## ... and failed in the compile with problems in the mingpp.h. The important capability, I think is EMF support, since that is the only format that I could find work to import editable vector objects into OpenOffice.org. 'emerge info' might be a little bit too much for this problem but here is it anyway...

Okay, i'm just confirming this behaviour and I've looked into it briefly and you're 100% correct in your testing and emf fix so far. Will look into it more asap.
Okay, thanks for your report. The EMF support is fixed, thanks for your patch which was helpful. Onto ming support, I'm quoting from the readme.txt in the pstoedit archive here: "Note - currently support for SWF needs several patches to be applied to the libming. All these were sent to the ming maintainer but so far not released officially. So you need to wait until the official release of those - or in urgent cases contact me." I'm surprised this hasnt been noticed before, so thankyou for pointing it out. I'm going to remove ming support from the ebuild until such a time as the patches are applied to ming and it is actually possible to build pstoedit with it. Fixes have been applied and this is no available in cvs. Thanks for your help.
