ggv fails with the following error from configure without having ghostscript already installed configure: error: Unable to find GhostScript in the PATH. Provide the full path for GhostScript(--with-gs=PATH). You need to have Ghostscript installed in order to run GGV manually merging ghostscript allows it to compile and install properly
Hmm, it depends on virtual/ghostscript, so that's not really a missing dependency.
well since it doesnt pull it in the end result is the same here is emerge info since it looked to be another issue entirly Portage 2.0.51.22-r2 (default-linux/amd64/2005.0, gcc-3.4.4, glibc-2.3.5-r0, 2.6.13-rc6-git5 x86_64) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.13-rc6-git5 x86_64 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 2800+ Gentoo Base System version 1.6.13 dev-lang/python: 2.3.5 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.11 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r6 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.5 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.1 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.18-r1 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=athlon64 -O3 -pipe" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/env /usr/kde/3.4/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/X11/xkb /usr/lib64/mozilla/defaults/pref /usr/share/config /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-march=athlon64 -O3 -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig distlocks fixpackages sandbox sfperms" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://distfiles.gentoo.org http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo" LANG="en_US.UTF-8" MAKEOPTS="" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/mdhd/portage.local" SYNC="rsync://vox.net/gentoo-portage" USE="amd64 X aac alsa avi berkdb bitmap-fonts cdr cjk crypt curl dmx dv dvb dvd dvdread eds encode esd fam fbcon fbdev flac foomaticdb fortran gif gnome gstreamer gtk gtk2 imlib ipv6 jpeg kde live lzw lzw-tiff matroska mng motif mozilla mp3 mpeg ncurses nls nptl ogg oggvorbis opengl pam pdflib perl png python qt quicktime readline real samba sdl spell ssl svg tcpd theora tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts unicode usb userlocales v4l v4l2 vcd vorbis wmf xine xinerama xml xml2 xmms xpm xv zlib userland_GNU kernel_linux elibc_glibc" Unset: ASFLAGS, CTARGET, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS, LINGUAS
Can not reproduce this. I just unmerged ghostscript and emerged ggv, which pulled in app-text/ghostscript. Ensure that you dont have a funny make.conf (RSYNC_EXCLUDES and other such things). Remove /usr/portage and resync. Reopen if you can still reproduce.
