Description Bastian Schnitzler 2010-06-23 21:39:29 UTC
Library seems not to be known to pkg-config. pkg-config --list-all | grep flickrnet returns nothing. 
configure-script of a program, which needs the flickrnet library, fails with message: flickrnet not found.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Download f-spot sources
2. unzip
3. execute ./configure 

Actual Results:  
Configure fails with message: flickrnet not found

Expected Results:  
Succeed in configuring the sources

flickrnet-bin does not provide a pkg-config .pc file, so it's not the ebuild's fault. Take a look at how the f-spot ebuild gets around this:

 --with-flickrnet=/usr/$(get_libdir)/mono/FlickrNet/FlickrNet.dll

You'll need to do the same thing when compiling f-spot by hand.

Does that solve your problem?
