This should add an agg USE flag so that other packages (e.g. matplotlib) can
test for it.

[Comment 2 LiuCougar 2005-11-01 10:39:18 UTC]

kde 4 would probably use agg as well

please consider incorporating agg into portage

OpenOffice.org2 uses agg library, too.

Yes, this is needed for KDE 4 (Kdelibs depends on it). Tested on ~x86, the ebuild works fine. I would also appreciate it, if this would be added.

tried agg-2.3.ebuild on my amd64, compiles fine, so I think the ~amd64 keyword could be added.

agg-2.3.ebuild

Some cleanups in the previous ebuild, added tutorial info and only install examples if USE flag is enabled.
Since it is useful for matplotlib, I also put it in the Gentoo Scientific overlay (http://gentooscience.org), together with basic metadata and ChangeLog.

[Comment 9 Hanno Zysik (geki) 2006-05-13 04:55:35 UTC]

Just to note:
- There is agg-2.4.
- OpenOffice.org needs agg-2.3 API.

(In reply to comment #9)
> - There is agg-2.4.

Ebuild was updated in the overlay (see comment #8)
