It seems fig2dev was added to the tree with: https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=5250adb89535b8d738d6c14f80e375b0657bc9de But it is not really replacing transfig as it needs to pass --enable-transfig to configure (as done in Fedora): https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/transfig/blob/rawhide/f/transfig.spec With that change, we will be able to migrate consumers to the new package
Ah, it seems transfig-3.2.9 was added too
Ah, no, xfig was added but not transfig... :/ In that case I still think the easiest will be to simply build fig2dev with --enable-transfig and migrate to this one
(In reply to Pacho Ramos from comment #2) > Ah, no, xfig was added but not transfig... :/ transfig as such is no longer maintained and has open security issues. It needs to be treecleaned. > In that case I still think the easiest will be to simply build fig2dev with > --enable-transfig and migrate to this one I missed that when adding fig2dev, thanks for investigating.
