why this app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-baselibs-20140508-r6 it has
>=media-libs/libpng-1.2.50-r1:1.2[abi_x86_32(-)]
>=media-libs/tiff-3.9.7-r1:3[abi_x86_32(-)
>=media-video/ffmpeg-0.10.8:0.10[abi_x86_32(-)])
but dont use installed:
media-libs/tiff-4.0.3-r6
media-libs/libpng-1.6.10
and
media-video/ffmpeg-2.2.2
?
(In reply to tman from comment #0) > really only useable with libpng-1.2.50.x?? why not able to use > media-libs/libpng-1.6.x?? the emul- must ensure libpng12.so.0 gets installed, as dozens if not hundreds of binary-only packages (ebuilds) like games, skype, nero, and whatever has the emul- in it's dependencies, and expect to get the libpng12.so.0 as a result all those binary-only ebuilds need to be converted to pull in the depends directly, instead of the emul- packages, before the libpng12 dep can be dropped from the emul- i hope that made sense :) but really, it looks to be right as-is, you should emerge the emul- with USE="-abi_x86_32" if you don't want it to pull the deps it does same goes for tiff, special slot, same goes for ffmpeg, special slot reassigning to multilib maintainers for this question: how do you feel about removing the deps from emul- from Comment #1 now? as in, then we would get bug reports about binary packages missing eg. media-libs/libpng:1.2[abi_x86_32] deps, and fix them or do you want to fix everything prior to reducing deps from emul- like originally planned? |
