dev-embedded/avrdude-7.0: does not support dumb parport prommers Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. I was trying to upload a program to an attiny 24 using a dumb parport dongle (stk200). avrdude erred out claiming not to know the dongle. There was no entry in the config file, so I added one, taken from a known-good debian install. Quote: programmer id = "stk200"; desc = "STK200"; type = "par"; connection_type = parallel; buff = 4, 5; sck = 6; mosi = 7; reset = 9; miso = 10; ; 2. the command was: avrdude -i 10 -p t24 -P /dev/parport0 -c stk200 -U flash:w:main.hex -U eeprom:w:main.eep Actual Results: It said: avrdude: parallel port access not available in this configuration avrdude: Fatal error: Programmer does not support open()avrdude: opening programmer "stk200" on port "/dev/parport0" failed equery u sez: Quote: U I - - ftdi : Enable support for USB FTDI chips via dev-embedded/libftdi + + readline : Enable support for libreadline, a GNU line-editing library that almost everyone wants I would like a parport useflag, please. Thank you Somebody suggested the following workaround: Temporarily, set MYCMAKEARGS="-DHAVE_PARPORT=ON" in a package.env entry for dev-embedded/avrdude to get what you need in the meantime.
