[gentoo-amd64] wxSVGXML?

[gentoo-amd64] wxSVGXML?

[Mark Haney]

Thanks to everyone for helping this ebuild n00b get working.  I've get 
everything setup, but now I've hit a snag. The ebuild I am working on 
requires svgxml.h and I cannot find that file.  With other distros it's 
in the wxsvg-devel package (or similar), but I can't find one for that 
in Gentoo.  With wxsvg, there's a wxSVG and wxXML folder in 
/usr/include/, but neither have this file.

I don't even know where to begin looking for it in Gentoo.  Ideas?

Good site to query is the "www.portagefilelist.de"
Sadly in this case you will have no luck!

Looking at the source code and the ebuild for wxSVG, I see no reason why
the file wouldn't be installed. Are you sure you don't have the wxSVGXML
directory in /usr/include? xmlsvg.h should be in there.

That directory doesn't exist in my system:

Which I don't get.  Is there a USE flag that would account for this?

FWIW nothing installed in 2 of 2 systems here, but a masked wxsvg ebuild
is in /usr/portage/media-libs on both

I don't have the file and don't have any of the wxWidgets installed, but 
at a guess... wrong version.  This seems to be confirmed with a search:

Google this for the fedora 1.0 beta 10 package:
wxsvg-devel-1.0-0.8.b10 svgxml.h

Now replace the b10 with b9, b8, etc.  No hits.  Delete the svgxml.h bit 
and you get hits again, so it's seeing the package, just not that file in 
the package.

Therefore, it would seem that file was added in beta 10.

Unfortunately, Gentoo's tree is outdated, with only the beta 7 ebuild.  A 
quick check of bugzy results in:

media-libs/wxsvg-1.0_beta10 version bump request
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215665

Seems they're working on it, but it needs some patches to work with 
Gentoo, and while it's building, it isn't actually functional (segfaults).

So... you can try hacking that ebuild and see if you can get it to work, 
or building and installing manually, to see if that works.  I'd certainly 
suggest CCing yourself to the bug.

It's also possible that whatever you are trying to build against that 
header file, you can either find an older version that builds against 
beta 7, or maybe, you can merge the building but segfaulting beta 10, and 
not have it matter if all you need are the header files.

Duncan, I saw that when I googled for that file, but from the wxsvg home 
page, there's no mention at all of a Beta10 (or B9 for that matter). 
That site may be outdated, since I can see the Fedora 9 devel rpm, I 
suppose I can rip it apart and use it if I need to, just for the header 
files.  I'll look at the ebuilds first.

Thanks!
