Bug 207070 – media-gfx/inkscape-0.45.1-r1 needs media-gfx/pstoedit w/ USE=plotutils

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Oliver Borm 2008-01-22 19:33:02 UTC]

If the USE-flag postscript is activated in media-gfx/inkscape-0.45.1-r1 the possibility of rendering LaTeX-formulaes in inkscape as described here (http://tavmjong.free.fr/INKSCAPE/MANUAL/html/Effects-Render.html#Effects-Latex) is activated. But for the conversion from ps to svg media-gfx/pstoedit must be compiled against GNU libplot, this is done by the USE-flag plotutils. But this behaviour should be checked by the inkscape ebuild! 

Reproducible: Always

Actual Results:  
pstoedit: version 3.45 / DLL interface 108 (build Jan 22 2008 - release build - g++ 4.1.2 (Gentoo 4.1.2 p1.0.1)) : Copyright (C) 1993 - 2007 Wolfgang Glunz

I've used a slightly modified ebuild to use pstoedit-3.45, because of a bug in version 3.44 (see also bug 199452).
