Description Stuart Hickinbottom 2011-11-06 17:12:11 UTC

Please may I request the addition of an ebuild for Image::Scale from CPAN?

This is required to allow me to update my ebuild for squeezeboxserver-7.6.1 (see bug#377825).

Please may I request two versions:
- version 0.06 (to support squeezeboxserver-7.6.1)
- version 0.08 (to support squeezeboxserver-7.7.0)

The latter is to support an ebuild I will be adding shortly so it would save me asking for another bump.

Note that a patch to Image::Scale may be necessary to support libpng-1.5 - see the attachment to https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=377825. I've not personally tested whether it's needed, though.

Thanks.

Adding bug#390503 as blocked by this bug. Logitech Media Server (the new name for Squeezebox Server) is also waiting for this bug to be resolved.

Maybe we can file an upstream bug report for the libpng issue.

Comment 3 Daniel Robbins 2012-01-22 07:28:37 UTC

The libpng patch was needed. Here are the requested ebuilds, added to funtoo-overlay. Gentoo can grab these:

Any news here?   Seems to me like everything is set to get this one fixed...?

In the tree now. Thanks

Comment 6 Daniel Robbins 2012-04-04 16:58:28 UTC

Note that we may be moving to a logitechmediaserver-bin without all the weird dep ebuilds, in which case it could be OK to remove this ebuild in the relatively near future if nothing else is using it.
