 |
|
Hey guys,
I emerged Eterm with
| Code: | | USE="png" emerge eterm |
It did its thing and I ran Eterm from xterm. Xterm spit out a bunch of errors like the following:
| Code: | | Eterm: Error: Unable to load image file "tile/plasma.png" -- No loader available for that file format |
I did a google search and didn't come up with anything in English 
I put the USE="png" flag to try and get it to emerge what it needs for png support.... obviously it didn't work.
Overall Eterm runs but doesn't have its graphics which is the whole point of Eterm....
Thanks,
Q

Some of the dependencies for eterm, might require PNG support as well. Some of these might have already been installed before you emerged eterm, so you will have to manually remerge them with the USE="png" flag as well. You can look up the dependencies in the package database...
hope this helps,

| Either use emerge -av --depclean or examine /var/log/emerge.log and therein locate when x11-terms/eterm was installed then determine the dependencies installed at that time. |

you could try:
| Code: |
USE="png" emerge -uDNpv eterm
|
This should pick up a lot of the down and dirties from just eterm, but i would suggest just adding the png flag to your make.conf use variable. that way you can just do emerge -uDNpv world to check that everything caught up then emerge it for real. |
