Bug 66035 – gocr-0.39 will not emerge font21.pcx and netpbm errors

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED TEST-REQUEST

[Description Kathy Wills 2004-10-01 09:09:47 UTC]

Tryint to update transcode. It is pulling in gocr-039 as a dependency. The emerge of gocr fails. I tried re-emerging netpbm which did so without any errors. I, also, tried "env-update && source /etc/profile." Netpbm version is 10.20. Ghostscript version is 7.07.1-r6.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge gocr
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
make -C examples all

command was: gs -q -dSAFER -sDEVICE=ppmraw -r80 -g835x507 -sOutputFile=- -
ppmtopcx: Error reading magic number from Netpbm image stream.  Most often, this
means your input file is empty.

What does `locate gs_init.ps` say? Does /usr/share/ghostscript/7.07/lib/gs_init.ps exist?

[Comment 2 Kathy Wills 2004-10-01 11:17:48 UTC]

"locate gs_init.ps" returns nothing. /usr/share/ghostscript/7.07/lib/gs_init.ps does exist and did even before I just now re-emerged ghostscript. I then tried re-emerging gorc. It has now gotten past that previous error but I'm getting some messages about glibc detected *** glibc detected *** double free or corruption: 0x080b49a8 *** fig2dev -L ppm -m 3 ex.fig | ppmtopcx -packed >ex.pcx. It did finish the emerge with this error.

[Comment 3 Mamoru KOMACHI (RETIRED) 2004-11-07 00:56:18 UTC]

I fixed ghostscript last week, so please turn off
all C[XX]FLAGS and emerge ghostscript, then
try this again.

[Comment 4 Mamoru KOMACHI (RETIRED) 2004-12-08 20:20:45 UTC]

Please reopen this bug if remerging ghostscript doesn's solve your issue.
Thanks in advance.
