Bugzilla Bug 136784

I would like this version of scorched3d unmasked (locally) and tested.  If it
works fine for you (and it should) then please mark it stable on your
architecture.  This is in preparation for removing the old openal CVS snapshots
and finally making openal sane on gentoo.  This package will remain masked
until the CVS snapshots are removed, but I would like to have all of the
testing done by the arch teams before it becomes unmasked to minimize the
impact on our users.

Thanks...

Yeah... that was supposed to say blender, not scorched3d... stupid copy and
paste... heh

i've played around a bit with blender-2.41-r1 USE="nls" on x86 and didn't
experience any problems. however note, that i only did the most basic things
one can do with blender, as i'm almost new to this very very feature rich
program.

I've done some testing on blender-2.41-r1. It compiles and runs fine. However
it didn't work with my xinerama setup displaying on the laptopmonitor but not
on the external. On Fluxbox it came without windowdecoration and crashed upon
me while i tried to resize the enormous window. Said crash also caused my
Xserver to quit.
However i was able to edit and import my blender models just fine. I haven't
yet tried with the complex and big ones but the normal ones look good.

2.41-r1 stable on ppc64

hrm.. I've commited stable before reading that last comment. unfortunatly I
don't have a xinerama setup for testing.

on x86:

Compiles fine, though I did notice the following "no such file or directory"
message:

>>> Install blender-2.41-r1 into /var/tmp/portage/blender-2.41-r1/image/ category media-gfx

dodoc: release_*.txt does not exist
>>> Completed installing blender-2.41-r1 into /var/tmp/portage/blender-2.41-r1/image/


Further it seems to work fine, I followed a tutorial to create a snowman and
didn't find or experienced any errors.

Luca, can we get those errors fixed?  If they're in 2.41-r1, then they're in
2.41, too.

Thanks

Same errors:

install: cannot stat
`/var/tmp/portage/blender-2.41-r1/work/blender/blenderplayer': No such file or
directory
cp: cannot stat
`/var/tmp/portage/blender-2.41-r1/work/blender/release/datafile': No such file
or directory
dodoc: release_*.txt does not exist

emerges fine, works (also tried a tutorial).

looks like I miss a commit, anyway fixed and ppc stable

Thanks, Luca!

OK, guys.  I'm guessing that this works for you, but can you just do a quick
check that the package doesn't throw errors anymore?  If so, I'll get it stable
on x86 and amd64.

Works for me.

the missing parts were just an optional executable, release notes.
the missing dir change name and now the ebuild copies the right one again.

All done.  Since 2.41 and 2.41-r1 only differ in dependencies, I went ahead and
marked 2.41, too.

A bit late, but wanted to confirm the resolution of the missing files issues..

2.41 ebuild was removed, but 2.41-r1 is still hard masked. No more blender for
me? ;-)

media-gfx/blender-2.41-r1 is now unmasked
