#58388: libwmf @0.2.8.4_8: dependency on obsolete port mkfontdir - build failure
----------------------------+--------------------------
Reporter: majoc-at-astro | Owner: (none)
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: Normal | Milestone:
Component: ports | Version: 2.5.4
Keywords: | Port: libwmf gimp2
----------------------------+--------------------------
From the logfile for gimp2:
{{{
---> Configuring mkfontdir
Error: mkfontdir has been replaced by mkfontscale; please install that
instead.
Error: Failed to configure mkfontdir: obsolete port
}}}
I enclose the obvious patch file to remove the dependency of libwmf on
mkfontdir. This fix has been working in production for some weeks.
Please see also ticket:58187. This is a sneaky one: a bin:-style
dependency on mkfontdir doesn't always throw an error (and may require a
grep of the Portfiles to track down), and I presume there are Reasons for
not using a port:-style dependency instead.
Thanks in advance, and apologies for not having submitted this as a pull
request, esp as libwmf is a nomaintainer port.
