Bugzilla Bug 155538

Not sure if this is an amd64 problem...

Athlon 64 X2 4200+, 2GB RAM, Nvidia Geforce 6100 (onboard)
Running Gentoo amd64 Linux release 2006.1

This package is not currently masked for amd64.

I purchased a few years ago Soldier of Fortune from Loki, so I have the
original CD. I followed the emerge instructions but got the following error:

emerge output follows
---------------------
gemini myuser # emerge soldieroffortune

 * This ebuild will need the cdrom for soldieroffortune

 * If you do not have the CD, but have the data files
 * mounted somewhere on your filesystem, just export
 * the variable CD_ROOT so that it points to the
 * directory containing the files.

 * For example:
 * export CD_ROOT=/mnt/cdrom


 * Please insert+mount the cdrom for soldieroffortune now !
 * Press return to scan for the cd again
 * or hit CTRL+C to abort the emerge.

 * If you are having trouble with the detection
 * of your CD, it is possible that you do not have
 * Joliet support enabled in your kernel.  Please
 * check that CONFIG_JOLIET is enabled in your kernel.

 * Found CD #1 root at /mnt/burner

!!! patching
!!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call stack if
relevant.

In the ebuild, try changing:

loki_patch patch.dat ${Ddir} >& /dev/null || die "patching"

To:

export _POSIX2_VERSION=199209
loki_patch patch.dat "${Ddir}" || die "patching"

This is from http://icculus.org/lgfaq/#chasingmyowntail

I'm guessing this is fixed... I added Paul's fix...

please reopen i still have it

OK, REOPEN...

is that patch necessary or we can handle the failure?

Patrizio, can you , please , change ebuild line
loki_patch patch.dat ${Ddir} >& /dev/null || die "patching"
into 
loki_patch patch.dat ${Ddir} || die "patching"
and paste the output from emerging?

italian "impossibile accedere" means "access denied"
seems amd64 issue.

any idea about this? i cannot install my favourite game :(

3 months, no news :(

ping

it's impossibile to have any version of sof merged, so if this will not be
fixed ebuild should be removed.
