I've just done a portage sync...

And wanted to try out the gimp animation package.. but It's not in portage though some threads seem to say ohterwise.. What do I do now?

thx L3mp

According to packages.gentoo.org, there are no gimp-gap ebuilds in the Portage tree.

There are some ebuilds in the bugzilla however
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=40023

that's exactly the stuff I found too...
But how do I use this bugzilla thing then?
This is completely new to me

Edit /etc/make.conf and add a line like this

Code: Select all

PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/overlays"

Then create the dir /usr/local/overlays/media-plugins/gimp-gap/ and put the ebuild in there. Then run this command

Code: Select all

ebuild /usr/local/overlays/media-plugins/gimp-gap/*ebuild digest

After that you can just emerge it with

Code: Select all

emerge gimp-gap

If you're not using ~arch, you need to do this as well

Code: Select all

mkdir /etc/portage && echo "media-plugins/gimp-gap ~x86" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords

Replace ~x86 with whatever arch you're running.

I have never installed ebuilds like this, but I just tried to follow the above directions and got this error:

Code: Select all

 
 * Cannot find $EPATCH_SOURCE!  Value for $EPATCH_SOURCE is:
 * 
 *   /usr/local/overlays/media-plugins/gimp-gap/files/extern_lib_fix.patch
 *   ( extern_lib_fix.patch )

Any ideas? I used this ebuild:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=73517
Maybe that's the wrong one?

There is also a file "extern_lib_fix.patch" which is probably something I have to run? Or something? Well, I decided to try putting it in the /files directory and it gave me a security warning so I took it back out. I'm not sure what to do.

Thanks!

put that patch file back in the files directory and run the

Code: Select all

ebuild /usr/local/overlays/media-plugins/gimp-gap/*ebuild digest

Again to clear up that security error

Anyhow, I'm having problems with ffmpeg and libavformat stuff. It appears the extern_libs from

http://cvs.rpm.org/viewcvs/gimp-gap/

are supposed to take care of this problem but I guess the ebuild doesn't reference and use those libraries.

So now, I'm trying the 2.2.0 ebuild from

http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-39 ... mpgap.html

to see if that works.

edit:

Which didn't, using the FEB 2005 ffmpeg since transcode won't build with anything newer. Anyone know, short of manually downloading and isntalling, of an ebuild that works?

Thanks, that caused the emerge process to function correctly.

Yo.

I probably wont get a reply because this thread is kind of old... but...

I've tried following the directions in this thread to no avail.

When I got to:

Code: Select all

ebuild gimp-gap-2.2.0-ebuild.tar.gz digest

I got:

Code: Select all

Appending /usr/local/overlays to PORTDIR_OVERLAY...
!!! /usr/local/overlays does not seem to have a valid PORTDIR structure.

(I checked and rechecked for typos.. but my make.conf is fine, and so are my directory names. I also tried the -r1.)

So then I tried the plain text one:

Code: Select all

ebuild gimp-gap-2.2.0.ebuild digest

That seemed to work, but it was getting hung up trying to connect to some server (132.194.22.137:36647 (I'm guessing the port number from memory))

So then I copied both gimp-gap-2.2.0.ebuild.tar.gz and gimp-gap-2.2.0.tar.bz2 (dl from official gimp page) to /usr/portage/distfiles/

After that I tried to

Code: Select all

ebuild gimp-gap-2.2.0.ebuild digest

again, and it seemed to work... So I tried to emerge then I got that same error as gnat79:

Code: Select all

 * Cannot find $EPATCH_SOURCE!  Value for $EPATCH_SOURCE is:
 *
 *   /usr/local/overlays/media-plugins/gimp-gap/files/extern_lib_fix.patch
 *   ( extern_lib_fix.patch )

Only I don't have the extern_lib_fix.patch anywhere on my computer, and google shows no results...

if I try that ebuild that sandcrawler linked to (babo's) it compiles for 5 minutes then...

Code: Select all

rm -f /usr/lib/gimp-gap-2.2/libavformat.a \

So I am stuck at three different places depending on whether I use 73517 (or 77764) or 81227 or babo's ebuild... oi.

Jet,

I haven't tried gimp-gap reinstall since I got it working. I think I need to test it again on a few other systems and if I get it going I will repost the results.

mkdir /usr/local/overlays/media-plugins/gimp-gap/files
wget http://bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=83535 -O /usr/local/overlays/media-plugins/gimp-gap/files/extern_lib_fix.patch

The extern_lib_fix.patch is attached to the bug report:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=40023

(if no wget, emerge it or figure out what it is doing above

).
