[gentoo-user] fltk without xft support?
Hi, I'm asking a question I don't understand and I probably won't understand the answer unless it's really basic. Thanks in advance for helping. (This is coming from a non-Gentoo application developer using my system remotely...) 1) Does the version of fltk installed on my system have xft support built in? Wizard root # emerge -p fltk These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies ...done! [ebuild R ] x11-libs/fltk-1.1.2-r2 2) If it does, is it possible to build a version that has it turned off as a test? 3) If so, how? Thanks, Mark -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Spider, Thanks very much for showing how to go about figuring this stuff out. This is an email I will save for future reference.

Now this is more interesting, and here's how I went about checking cd /usr/portage/x11-libs/fltk look inside the fltk-1.1.3.ebuild and youll see : local myconf myconf="--enable-shared --enable-static --enable-threads \ --enable-xdbe --enable-xft" So yes, its enabled. And an option inside the ebuild. (but not a USE flag) > 3) If so, how? change the --enable-xft to --disable-xft if you want to keep this change over "emerge sync" then find and read documentation about PORTAGE_OVERLAY and copy it there. if not, just do ebuild fltk-1.1.3.ebuild merge And it will build and install. ldd on the .so and see if it still links to libXft or not. hope this helps some in future debugging and digging for help :) (I figured methodology would help a bit instead of just posting the answers) //Spider -- begin .signature This is a .signature virus!
