Description Dennis Schridde 2010-05-18 06:29:15 UTC
media-libs/libpng-1.2.43-r3:1.2 does not install libpng12.pc, which causes trouble when trying to emerge www-client/chromium-6.0.401.1:

Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libpng12.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
Package 'libpng12', required by 'cairo', not found
Traceback (most recent call last):
[...]
Exception: Call to 'pkg-config --cflags gtk+-2.0 gthread-2.0' returned exit status 1. while loading dependencies of base/base.gyp while loading dependencies of net/net.gyp while loading dependencies of app/app.gyp while loading dependencies of build/all.gyp while trying to load build/all.gyp


Reproducible: Always
