[gentoo-user] Gnome2 Truetype Fonts

2003-06-07 Thread Yusuf Nagree




when I log into gdm using root, truetype fonts are available to galeon  other apps.

however, when I log in as a user, truetype fonts are not available (though all the others are)

i suspect permissions somewhere are stuffed.

anyone got any suggestions?

i works fine when logged in as root, but not as a non-root user

Re: [gentoo-user] Configuration options

2003-06-03 Thread Yusuf Nagree




Hi

1. Try to play with USE flags

Trouble with that is that it applies to all packages - for example, I want xsane build without gimp but all the other packages with gimp - really what I'm looking for is a package specific USE


2. Just copy ebuild to the local portage dir and edit it according your
needs.


 I'm trying to avoid because then I have to keep on eye on the 
ebuilds and make new ones as the maintainer releases them


Cheers, Yusuf

 How can you set configure options on a per package basis
 
 ie. in the xsane package, I want to run:
 
 configure --disable-gimp --enable-gtk2
 
 I can alter the ebuild file but I would really like to be able to put
 these configuration options somewhere like make.conf etc.. so that they
 are always set  when updating the xsane package.
 
 
 Anyone know if this is possible?




Best regards,
Andrew.

 Hope this isn't a silly question, but how do you get emerge to
 install the latest packages.. I've been searching around for the
 answer and haven't come up with anything

 eg. in the samba directory, we have versions 2.28, 2.28a, 3.0alp22,
 3.0alp23.

 when I do an emerge samba, it wants to install 2.28a - I can't get it
 to install 3.0alp23 automatically

 It's not being masked as far as I can tell

There are no ebuilds that I see for samba later than 2.2.8a.
If there were ebuilds available and masked, doing:
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS=~x86 emerge -up samba
would upgrade to the latest masked ebuild.
