Description:   Opened: 2006-01-24 00:03 0000 
Once unmasked, the gEDA ebuild and associated libs and gtkwave (full list
below) work fine here. I'm running an iBook G3 800mhz w/ 256mb ram and Gentoo
2005.1 for ppc.

ebuilds affected:
sci-libs/libgeda-20050820
sci-libs/libgdgeda-2.0.15
sci-electronics/geda-20050820
sci-electronics/gtkwave-1.3.72

NOTE: I have succesfully emerged and run gtkwave, but have not used it fully,
only had it dump the help menu as I had no files to test it on. gEDA however
works very nicely.

Reassigning... PPC team feel free to stable, fine with me.

------- Comment #2 From Wormo 2006-01-31 22:21:58 0000 ------- 
Ran into a problem with geda -- it is trying to clobber the toplevel info file
/usr/share/info/dir. That seems like a file collision that should be fixed
before stabling it.

------- Comment #3 From Wormo 2006-01-31 23:47:16 0000 ------- 
Tim: the collision was caused by files installed into /usr/info instead of
/usr/share/info -- prepinfo tries to clean out /usr/share/info/dir, and
/usr/info/dir slips through. Probably portage will regenerate
/usr/share/info/dir afterwards if I turn off collision-protect, but it would be
cleaner to have geda install into the right directories. I'm testing a one-line
patch that should work,  will attach it for you to look at if it seems ok

Created an attachment (id=78691) [edit]
standardize paths for man and info files

fix infodir: /usr/info ==> /usr/share/info
fix mandir: /usr/man ==> /usr/share/man

Wormo - looks good and thanks for the patch. Feel free to commit it along with
the   PPC flaggage.

geda and libs stable on ppc

Tim, do you have any files I could use to test gtkwave, since Eric was unable
to put it through its paces?

------- Comment #7 From Wormo 2006-03-04 23:14:44 0000 ------- 
I'm still having problems testing gtkwave -- installed freehdl which seems to
be the only vhdl simulator in portage, ran a couple of examples to create .vcd
files, and found gtkwave does not like them (it won't read in any of the
signals but time):

Plasmaroo: any suggestions on generating valid files to test with?

Wormo -- you'll find a sample VCD file in
ftp://ftp.cs.man.ac.uk/pub/amulet/gtkwave/2.0/gtkwave-2.0.0pre5.tar.gz in the
examples/ directory; let me know if there are any problems. Thanks.

Thanks, that was just what I needed!
gtkwave-1.3.72 stable on ppc
