System environment: gentoo-1.2 on linux-2.4.18 USE flags: USE="-java -xv -gnome sse -pdflib", otherwise v1.2 defaults. bug description: The hotkeys-0.5.4.ebuild requires xosd-0.7.0, but hotkeys' configure-script does not find the xosd-library: from hotkeys configure.log: ---SNIP--- configure:2539: checking for xosd_init in -lxosd configure:2558: gcc -o conftest -march=i686 -O3 -pipe conftest.c -lxosd -ldb 1>&5 /usr/i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find -lxosd collect2: ld returned 1 exit status configure: failed program was: #line 2547 "configure" #include "confdefs.h" ---SNIP--- The reason seems to be that the ebuild-script does not give the --with-xosd-inc and --with-xosd-lib options to configure. Changing the ebuild-script to use these options instead of --libdir and --includedir solved the problem for me. These options are actually used in the hotkeys-0.5.5.ebuild. But this one tries (because of the name?) to download a nonexisting file 'hotkeys-0.5.5.tar.gz'. I named my new file hotkeys-0.5.4-r1.ebuild instead and everything worked fine for me. I would send the file as an attachment or otherwise make it available, but I do not see how... Cheers Sebastian
Created attachment 4813 [details] This ebuild fixed the described problem for me. Now I found out how to upload an attachment ;-) Hope this is helpful for somebody... Sebastian
nice catch, nice fix :)
