Description Andrius Štikonas 2013-10-15 11:43:50 UTC 
Can media-gfx/asymptote-2.24 be stabilized? Current stable version does not depend on virtual/python-imaging which is inconvenient.
Comment 1 Andrius Štikonas 2013-11-20 00:14:57 UTC 
Ping? Are there any problems with this version?

> Ping? Are there any problems with this version?
Yes :-( To produce pdf output, any sufficiently new version of asymptote needs >=dev-texlive/texlive-latexextra-2013. Until it's stabilized, it's impossible to stabilize asymptote.
The current stable asymptote is broken for the same reason. The only way to get a working asymptote is to install ~arch asymptote and texlive-2013.

I can produce pdf output with texlive-2012 just fine. Do you have an example of a file that doesn't work?

Yes. Try pdf output and it will fail to work. Only eps output is fine.

No, pdf output worked for all the files I have written myself and there have been quite a few. An example can be found in bug #481076 (this bug depends on it).

Closing this. No longer in the tree. There is a newer stabilization request.
