Though sci-geosciences/mapnik-3.0.18 is installed, viking ./configure complains about missing mapnik hpp headers.

Comment 6 dawgg 2019-02-26 11:18:35 UTC 
the reason for this error is in some misplaced/misreferenced files belonging to  sci-geosciences/mapnik-3.0.18.
it seems configure expects files in /usr/include/mapnik/util/mapbox/ but the mapnik-installation from portage puts the files into /usr/include/mapnik/mapbox/.
I found out by running the configure-script from the source manually and checking config.log; the errormsg emitted by ./configure is misleading.

i could compile it manually and with portage by putting full paths into
/usr/include/mapnik/util/variant.hpp and
/usr/include/mapnik/util/mapbox/variant.hpp (dir mapbox/ copied into dir util/)
which is certainly not the right way but might give some hints fixing this.
Comment 7 milev.philip 2020-05-07 06:26:02 UTC 
I ran into the exact same error, when tried to build viking. I think the issue is how mapnik is deploying their includes. I added https://github.com/mapnik/mapnik/issues/4141
Comment 8 Hans de Graaff gentoo-dev Security 2021-03-12 09:30:20 UTC 
mapnik is no longer packaged in gentoo and viking 1.8 consequently no longer has support for it.
