Bug 628306 – media-plugins/gst-plugins-zbar: ebuild request

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Thomas Schneider 2017-08-19 16:26:33 UTC]

zbar support in gst-plugins-bad is needed for https://github.com/GNOME-Keysign/gnome-keysign.
The patch below seems to work, but has not received more testing other than using the camera feature of said software on my system.
If wanted, I’ll be happy to make a git commit + pull request out of this.

We don't add USE flags for this, we do a new media-plugins/gst-plugins-zbar package. Try that way please.

[Comment 2 Mart Raudsepp 2017-08-19 17:00:25 UTC]

You can look at e.g media-plugins/gst-plugins-mpeg2enc as an example.
All external dependencies of any added gstreamer plugins MUST have multilib support, so you'll need to arrange that for media-gfx/zbar. If zbar has multilib support after I'm done with gstreamer 1.12 other version bumps, I'll try to add a 1.12 version of gst-plugins-zbar as well, but if it doesn't support multilib, then I can't.
