Bug 45963 – gimp-2.0.0 ebuild fails, as it doesn't check for/install certain dependencies (gail, libgnomecanvas)

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED INVALID

[Description Mark Florian 2004-03-28 02:48:08 UTC]

When I attempt to emerge gimp-2.0.0 (with the command "emerge /usr/portage/media-gfx/gimp/gimp-2.0.0.ebuild -v"), about 5 minutes into the build process, it fails, with the following errors:
[...]

------------------

The relevant USE flags in place for this emerge were: "+X +aalib -altivec -debug -doc -gimpprint -gtkhtml +jpeg +mmx +mng +png +python +sse -tiff -wmf".

After manually emerging gail first (which also installed libgnomecanvas), gimp-2.0.0 emerged perfectly.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Make sure gail/libgnomecanvas is not installed
2. emerge gimp 2.0.0

Actual Results:  
Gimp-2.0.0 emerge failed, complaining that various things to do with gail 
don't exist 

Expected Results:  
Gimp-2.0.0 ebuild should require gail/libgnomecanvas (not sure whether it has 
anything to do with my USE flags, "+X +aalib -altivec -debug -doc -gimpprint 
-gtkhtml +jpeg +mmx +mng +png +python +sse -tiff -wmf"

you probably cleaned your system not so long ago ( emerge --depclean) ?

[Comment 2 Mark Florian 2004-03-28 10:15:09 UTC]

I've never cleaned my system, ever, using --depclean. But, now that you mention it, I may have manually removed these packages when I got sick of GNOME... But I can't remember, that would have been a LONG time ago.

Either way, don't these deps still need to be put into the ebuild?

[Comment 3 foser (RETIRED) 2004-08-08 07:31:05 UTC]

no, they're deps of deps and not directly used by gimp. You removed the stuff yourself, you get to keep the pieces.

Closing INVALID (= not a bug).
