This should be provided by media-libs/gexiv2 (not media-gfx/exiv2). Can you confirm that you are trying to build without the "exif" USE flag?
Same problem. 1) With "-exif" it is building fine. 2) With "exif" it failes with: checking for gexiv2_metadata_new in -lgexiv2... no configure: error: libgexiv2 is needed but not found - you will need to install package 'libgexiv2-dev' or similar. The feature can be disabled with --disable-geotag 3)If I install "media-libs/gexiv2-0.6.1" manually, it builds fine with "exif".
I can confirm the issue, but there is an alternative way to fix it. Looking at viking's configure, the program depends either on gexiv2 or libexif for exif management, defaulting on gexiv2. You can explicitly set libexif as the preferred one setting --with-libexif flag. So, I have added that flag to the ebuild, and it worked. I'm just adding as attachments both the modified viking-1.6.ebuild and its diff with the public one.
Created attachment 401122 [details] sci-geosciences/viking-1.6.ebuild (fixed) This is the fixed version of viking-1.6.ebuild (just one additional line)
Created attachment 401124 [details, diff] Patch of viking-1.6.ebuild This patch can be applied over public viking-1.6.ebuild to fix this bug
This is now fixed in viking-1.6-r1 USE="-exif" : no dependencies on exif code, no exif support USE="exif" : depend on gexiv2 to provide exif support USE="exif libexif" : depend on libexif to provide exif support This should make sure dependencies match what is actually compiled and also keep the upstream default of using gexiv2 as the default exif library.
