Bugzilla Bug 132248

I think x48-0.4.3-r1 is ready for stable on x86, other arches please mark
testing if possible.

It has a self test procedure to ensure it works correctly:

$ x48 -rom /usr/share/hp48/gxrom-r

when it starts, 

click and hold the ON key (bottom left) with the mouse then hit 'e' on the
keyboard, then release both. The calculator enters a self-testing loop, wait a
few seconds until the calculator displays "OK-48" (it runs the self test in a
loop after that, but once you've seen OK-48, you can close it).

are missing these dependecies:
x11-misc/imake
app-text/rman

without i'm not able to compile x48-0.4.3-r1

p.s.: imake is a dependecy for Xorg6.x, but not for Xorg7.x

Toffanin: those dependencies are included in the ebuild

~amd64

~alpha

stable here for me (^.^);

added ~ppc64

~sparc'ed.

uh, you are right!! i have thinked that the problem was some missing
dependencies for the ebuilds, instead for some strange issues, that
dependencies are not downloaded and compiled by my emerge:

emerge -av imake rman

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild  N    ] x11-misc/imake-1.0.1-r1  USE="-debug" 0 kB
[ebuild  N    ] app-text/rman-3.1  0 kB


emerge -av x48

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild  N    ] app-emulation/x48-0.4.3-r1  0 kB

no imake or rman packages are required for 'emerge -av x48' also if are
declared as dependencies into the ebuilds; infact if i emerge x48 i get an
error about imake:

>>> Source unpacked.

portage sync done 30 minutes ago, and the problem is always reproducible on all
the x86 machines that i have. emerging imake and rman by hand the application
run well, pass the test procedure e work great. What i do? open a new bugreport
or report my emerge infos here?

x48 mostly seems ok on ppc, except the self test won't start up by itself -- I
see a blank screen until I: 

a) hit ctrl-c to drop into the debugger, run some command to look at state
(either 'where' or 'regs', then 'cont' to continue
or
b) quit x48 altogether and restart it

Also, it likes to eat up all available cpu while in test mode, but maybe that's
normal. It does print stuff like "ok-48" and "irom ok" at least.

If instead I do on-a-f to reset memory then hit 'on' again, it comes up with
what seems like a reasonable calculator mode.

What do you think Tavis, should we not worry too much about the test mode
weirdness and keyword it ~ppc? It does look usable...

Wormo: hmm, it's definitely not supposed to do that, but if it passes the self
tests then I think it's safe to assume it wont give incorrect results, so if
it's still usable I think you can go ahead and keyword it.

marked ~ppc with a comment about self-test oddities in the Changelog

Compiled an ran on amd64 without any problems.

Stable on hppa.

~ia64 done

not interested in testing this myself ... maybe if someone else is

We'll pass on this too until a user specifically requests it.

No arches left in CC, closing.
