• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description urcindalo 2012-06-13 18:25:25 UTC]

Please add Wolfram CDF Player to the tree.

The CDF standard is a computation-powered knowledge container—as everyday as a document, but as interactive as an app.

Once you install CDF Player, you'll be able to...
	Interact with applications from the Wolfram Demonstrations Project
	View Mathematica examples, reports, and files

I  just installed CDF Player 11.3, but on the first launch this error appears:
=====
$ /opt/bin/WolframCDFPlayer
/opt/Wolfram/CDFPlayer/11.3/SystemFiles/FrontEnd/Binaries/Linux-x86-64/WolframCDFPlayer: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib64/libfontconfig.so.1: undefined symbol: FT_Done_MM_Var
=====

Also, this message appears at the end of the emerge process:
=====
