Created attachment 587422 [details] wkhtmltopdf-bin-0.12.5.ebuild As described in https://bugs.gentoo.org/361587 The source version doesn't seem to compile with "patched qt" which add many features to this software. The following message appears on --help and on man pages: >Reduced Functionality: > This version of wkhtmltopdf has been compiled against a version of QT without > the wkhtmltopdf patches. Therefore some features are missing, if you need > these features please use the static version. The only way I found to get these features, is to use the prebuild binary version from the Debian 8 release (Arch does something similar, see https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=wkhtmltopdf-static) You'll find the ebuild attached, tested on my server. The dependencies and deps' versions will have to be tuned for the selected release (e.g. Debian 9 depends on libssl1.1, this is why I chose the release for Debian 8) and for future dependencies versions released in the portage tree.
Dear proxy-maint, Edoardo wants to maintain this ebuild in portage. Can you assist him? Thanks
Gentoo is currently in process of deprecating qtwebkit and any software that uses it, please see https://bugs.gentoo.org/684580 besides there are security concerns to be raised when ever using bundled libraries, especially when system ones are available. Upstreams qtlibs look old. And third, the the manpower currently in proxy-maint won't allow us to add any new packages to ::gentoo tree. You can read more about that from here, https://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-proxy-maint/message/44f7712fb49850288cd840c3541f6d7e I suggest putting your package to GURU overlay for now. Sorry, I currently can't help more. https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:GURU
