            Bug ID: 262021
           Summary: devel/tex-web2c:  port requires obsolete openjpeg15,
                    but does not actually link to it
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)
          Assignee: tex@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: russo@bogodyn.org

             Flags: maintainer-feedback?(tex@FreeBSD.org)

As noted in bug https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=262008 for
Libreoffice, the newest version of libreoffice requires OpenJPEG 2.4, and will
fail to build if openjpeg 1.5 is installed.

Openjpeg 1.5 is NOT marked as a conflict for OpenJPEG 2.4, and is explicitly
required by tex-web2c --- so at the moment is is impossible to install
tex-web2c (or anything that requires it) *and* the current version of
libreoffice at the same time.

But it does not look like tex-web2c even *uses* openjpeg:   
for i in `pkg info -l tex-web2c | grep bin` ; do   ldd $i; done | grep jpeg 
returns nothing at all, making it look like this is an unnecessary dependency.

If tex-web2c does not use openjpeg at all, then the dependency should be
removed.  If it can use openjpeg 2.4 instead, it should so that the obsolete
openjpeg15 can be removed.

If openjpeg15 really *does* have to be installed for tex-web2c to work, then
something will have to be done to make it properly coexist with 2.4 so that
libreoffice can build.
