Description Charlie Gehlin 2015-01-21 14:00:16 UTC

When emerging x11-wm/windowmaker-0.95.6 w/USE="webp", configure fails to detect libwebp, even though it's installed. Upstream seems to have a patch.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge x11-wm/windowmaker
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
checking for PNG support library... -lpng
checking for JPEG support library... -ljpeg
checking for GIF support library... -lgif version:4
checking for TIFF support library... -ltiff
checking for WEBP support library... configure: error: explicit WEBP support requested but no library found

!!! Please attach the following file when seeking support:

 * ERROR: x11-wm/windowmaker-0.95.6::gentoo failed (configure phase):
 *   econf failed


Will attach output from 'emerge --info'

Thanks for the report and link! The mentioned patch is indeed in upstream "next" branch, and configure check works better with it :)

I applied it unconditionally in current 0.95.6 ebuild, as it does change the configure result
