Description Alan LeVee 2005-01-16 21:27:50 UTC

I was preparing to upgrade to xorg-x11-6.8.1.902 when I had noticed that it required >=media-libs/freetype-2.1.8. Well this unfortuantly caused mozilla firefox to be blocked. I investigated the issue on Gentoo Bugzilla and found out it was blocked previously due to an issue in Mozilla Firefox 0.9.3 (which was patched) as well as Mozilla Thunderbird and Mozilla itself (which were also both patched). So I decided to move media-libs/freetype over to local portage and remove the RDEPEND blocks. After installing freetype-2.1.9 and rebuilding firefox, mozilla and thunderbird. I experience no problems with the freetype issues that occured. As far as I know everything works fine and I will be commencing with my upgrade to xorg-x11-6.8.1.902. I just thought I should let you guys know.

FYI: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=234035

Comment 2 Dave Foster 2005-03-20 17:46:08 UTC

I can confirm that Firefox (net-www/mozilla-firefox-1.0.1 atm) builds and seemingly works fine with Freetype 2.1.9.  I used the same technique as the reporter, copying the ebuild for freetype-2.1.9 to my overlay and removing the rdepend block containing Firefox.

I'm not sure this bug is assigned to the correct team.  Since the problem is within the freetype-2.1.9 ebuild, shouldn't it be assigned to the team in charge of that?

FF is no longer using freetype, but pango/xft instead. Anyway, the block is no longer there for current versions in portage:


freetype-2.1.10.ebuild

<snip>
RDEPEND="${DEPEND}
        !<www-client/mozilla-1.7.3-r3
        !<www-client/mozilla-firefox-1.0-r3
        !<mail-client/mozilla-thunderbird-0.9-r3
        !<media-libs/libwmf-0.2.8.2"
</snip>

Closing an obsolete bug.
