According to http://mapnik.org/news/release-3.0.0/ version 3.0.0 was released on 2015-07-07. Since there are issues to build mapnik with recent stable boost version ~1.56.0 (i.e. bug 546694) IMHO this is the way to go... Reproducible: Always
Created attachment 406802 [details] ebuild proposal compiles (with a lot of warnings), but fails in install part of ebuild: scons: done building targets. chmod: cannot access ‘/var/tmp/portage/sci-geosciences/mapnik-3.0.0/image//usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/mapnik/paths.py’: No such file or directory * ERROR: sci-geosciences/mapnik-3.0.0::x-portage failed (install phase): * fperms failed some patch files needs to be renamed too. and python seems to be a hard dep now.
I have some notes and questions to the ebuild, so please do not hesitate to correct me. * mapnik-3.0.0 now depends on >=media-libs/harfbuzz-0.9.34 * from INSTALL doc: ">=dev-libs/boost-1.47 is required and >=dev-libs/boost-1.56 recommended" so >=dev-libs/boost-1.56[threads,python?] in RDEPEND should be set? * please see above if >=dev-libs/boost-1.56 is set, is this then still needed in RDEPEND? python_single_target_python3_3? ( >=dev-libs/boost-1.53[${PYTHON_USEDEP}] ) * the plugin python is gone, python is a build dependency * should dev-util/scons set in the ebuild as a dependency? if this is set, so this will install also python? * for the plugin rasterlite an ebuild >=librasterlite-1.1b is needed * for the plugin osm, the needed libcurl ist set in RDEPEND as net-misc/curl * are these two still needed in RDEPEND? media-fonts/dejavu x11-libs/agg[truetype] Some things i got from this: https://github.com/mapnik/mapnik/blob/master/INSTALL.md thanks for the ebuild
