Description Richard Freeman gentoo-dev 2015-12-18 11:42:15 UTC
It appears that dvipng depends on gd without a slot operator dependency, so it breaks after a gd update.  Consider adding a slot operator if appropriate.

!!! existing preserved libs:
>>> package: media-libs/gd-2.1.1
 *  - /usr/lib64/libgd.so.2
 *  - /usr/lib64/libgd.so.2.0.0
 *      used by /usr/bin/dvipng (app-text/dvipng-1.14)
 *      used by /usr/bin/gnuplot (sci-visualization/gnuplot-4.6.5)
 *      used by /usr/bin/memusagestat (sys-libs/glibc-2.21-r1)

Probably better to leave 1.14 alone so users can stay with the preserved lib. Recompiling dvipng-1.14 would most likely fail because of bug 568522.

I have added the dependency on gd:2= to dvipng-1.15 though.

Interesting, it rebuilt just fine with kpathsea-6.2.0_p20140525 on stable.  But, no objection fixing it long-term.

And stuff like that is why I ask first.  :)
