[gentoo-desktop] [kde-sunset] x11-libs/qt-3.3.8b fails to build with libpng-1.4 because a patch is not being applied

[Alexandre Rostovtsev]

x11-libs/qt-3.3.8b-r2 and -r1 (in the kde-sunset overlay) currently
fail to compile with libpng-1.4 because some structure fields in png.h
have gotten renamed.

Fortunately, in February a patch to fix this issue
(files/qt-3.3.8-libpng14.patch) was added to the overlay.

Unfortunately, even though the patch is there, the qt ebuilds in the
overlay don't apply it.

Please add  epatch "${FILESDIR}/qt-3.3.8-libpng14.patch" to the qt:3 ebuilds.

-Alexandre Rostovtsev.

I've read something to the effect that libpng-1.4 is causing all kinds 
of headaches even in mainline Gentoo (even without kde-sunset).  It's 
got me nervous to update...  I still remember about ten years ago when a 
libpng update completely hosed a FreeBSD desktop I was maintaining then. 
Here we go again!  :-/

Yes, indeed the new libpng-1.4 is breaking a lot of packages (think i read 
sth. about relation to not using --as-needed or so on some gentoo-related 
blogs ).
After fixing the qt-3 ebuild it still broke bluefish and some others....

For the time being i would suggest masking libpng-1.4... until this is 
resolved.

strowi

Hello,

if you ask me, I'd say I already fixed it. Well, I may be mistaken. I
will test this patch tomorrow and commit update, if it works.

Does not seem to break anything, so I just pushed it.
