[gentoo-user] [science overlay] librecad ebuild troubles?

2011-08-15 Thread Andy Wilkinson
I am trying to emerge librecad-1.0.0_rc1 from the science overlay; however, it appears to be missing some crucial steps (silly things like "fetching the source" and "building the program"). The output from emerge borders on trivial: http://pastebin.com/1HN9x299 Since that doesn't look very helpf

So, the only issue that I consistently have in Gentoo anymore is that there exist periods of time (probably coincident with gphoto2 or gvfs upgrades) wherein I can't automount my PTP digital camera (a Nikon D60, if it's relevant) and use gthumb to import my photos. I'm able to use gphoto2 to do so

I believe I know the answer to the question... the real question is, how can I work around it? ;) I am running the development branch of www-client/chromium (currently 8.0.552.0). As a result, I like the latest builds to always be unmasked when they are available. However, once in a while there

I've noticed that ebuilds of chromium at and later than 6.0.472.33 no longer use the system-provided ffmpeg, and seem to lose support for h264 videos (test any non-webm, html5 video at youtube; it will never load). I've tried doctoring the ebuild to use the system-provided ffmpeg, which does not
