while trying to emerge app-text/pdftk-1.12 I ran into the following problem The package declares a dependency on gcc-3.3, but in fact it needs gcj (the Java compiler) This is not found on my gcc3 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. !!! Relying on the shell to locate gcc, this may break !!! DISTCC, installing gcc-config and setting your current gcc !!! profile will fix this Portage 2.0.51.22-r3 (default-darwin/macos/10.4, gcc-4.0.0, libsystem-7.1-r0, 8.2.0 Power Macintosh) =============================================================== == System uname: 8.2.0 Power Macintosh powerpc macos-20041118 distcc 2.0.1-zeroconf powerpc-apple-darwin7.0 (protocol 1) (default port 3632) [disabled] dev-lang/python: [Not Present] sys-apps/sandbox: [Not Present] sys-devel/autoconf: [Not Present] sys-devel/automake: [Not Present] sys-devel/binutils: [Not Present] sys-devel/libtool: [Not Present] virtual/os-headers: 7.1 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="ppc-macos" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="powerpc-apple-darwin8" CFLAGS="-O2 -pipe" CHOST="powerpc-apple-darwin8" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/share/config /var/ qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig collision-protect distlocks sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://distfiles.gentoo.org http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/ gentoo" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="ppc aalib emboss gdbm gif imagemagick libwww nls ogg opengl png ppc-macos qt sdl slang tiff vorbis userland_Darwin kernel_Darwin elibc_Darwin" Unset: ASFLAGS, CTARGET, LANG, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS, LINGUAS, PORTDIR_OVERLAY
Also Applies to x86. gives error * It seems that your system doesn't provides a Java compiler. * Re-emerge sys-devel/gcc with "gcj" enabled. can ebuild be made to check if correct use flag for gcc is present when built?
Joe, please file a new bug. It should be "trivial" using $(build_with_use ...). This bug is for OSX. Thanks.
recycling this bug. The owners of this package should consider changing the dependency and making a more proper check for the existence of gcj. Not much OSX can do here.
The check looks correct to me. gcc-3 in portage offers gcj. An alternative is to look in the java-gcj overlay for a better gcj :-)
