Description Tupone Alfredo gentoo-dev 2003-12-11 04:53:35 UTC
gps binary does not start as it need a libpng.so.2 that is not there. Currently I can get libpng.so.3. Don't know a clean way to let it start

Hm, I was sure I worked around this. The .3 that is provided by libpng in portage worked fine, you just have to ln it to .2. Doesn't it do it? The ebuild has the line that creates a symlink. I'll test how this works again..

Oops, looks like I flipped 2 and 3 in that dosymlink line :(
Corrected, please test.

Works now. 
But emerge world does not update it. 
I had to emerge gps-bin. Should change version?
