( sane-frontends-1.0.13.ebuild ) The problem is that with USE="gimp", the ebuild tries to automatically detect the gimp version and use /usr/bin/gimptool-<version>. However, I have gimp 2.2, and the ebuild tries to run /usr/bin/gimptool-2.2 to get the plug-in directory, while the only gimp tool I have installed is gimptool-2.0. Therefore, the command to get the plug-in directory fails, and the plugin installs to /plug-ins. Hardcoding the version in works, however, I doubt that is the way you want it to be done. Thanks in advance. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
Thanks for the hint, I'll ask the gimp maintainer about the right way to find this path.
Ok, just calling gimptool without version suffix now. Silent fix, no need to recompile for a broken symlink.
Sorry, but I don't think this is resolved. I don't have a /usr/bin/gimptool either. % ls /usr/bin | grep gimp gimp gimp-2.2 gimp-remote gimp-remote-2.2 gimpprint-config gimptool-2.0 % equery l media-gfx/gimp [ Searching for package 'gimp' in 'media-gfx' among: ] * installed packages [I--] [ ] media-gfx/gimp-print-4.2.7 (0) [I--] [ ] media-gfx/gimp-2.2.7 (2) I didn't notice any ebuild changes to gimp in WebCVS, but I verified what you said about the sane-frontends ebuild there. Sorry for the hassle.
The current version of gimp installs such a symlink but I think you are right, it is not yet safe to assume this since older versions aren't that nice. Modified the ebuild accordingly, thanks for the hint again.
