Besides bug 256087, a few new issues have arisen: - this package could benefit from EAPI=4, REQUIRED_USE to be exact - package wasn't updated with changes required by gdk-pixbuf split (probably patching configure.ac and src/Makefile.am will be necessary) - during build I see a 'jmpbuf' libng 1.4 deprecation warning - it's pointless to build a static archive for a gdk loader - 'static-libs' would be nice - perhaps those ghostscript notes in the ebuild could be rechecked

libwmf-9999 ebuild anyone ?
A live ebuild would make sense only if there was any significant activity in the upstream repo (and found somebody to maintain it here) - while cvs isn't browser friendly, it seems those sources weren't touched in the last few years. As far as libpng 1.5 goes, the only warning I see on 1.4, is the one about png_ptr->jmpbuf, so the fix should quite trivial.
it is not trivial for me .... sorry :D do you think you can make a patch ?

*** Bug 368329 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Created attachment 274337 [details, diff] patch fixing some of the issues This patch fixes following parts of this bug: - libpng warning - bogus static loader - loader placed in an incorrect place gtk+:2 dep should be changed to gdk-pixbuf (as it already actually is (barring the check in the original configure.ac, no function from gtk+ is actually used)).
...and it seems I did misread bug 368329 a bit - the path does seems to need the change listed there.
i can confirm that the patch solves the problem
Some most serious issues fixed. Open new bug with more per-feature/fix patches if needed.
