Bugzilla Bug 190240

Current version of CRM114 from gentoo portage is quite old and little bit
buggy. Newer version will need TRE 0.7.5 , now we have 0.7.4 in the portage
dev-libs/tre



Reproducible: Always

Umm, did you also file a request for tre to be bumped?  I haven't and that is
why I haven't bumped crm114, I am not the maintainer of tre.  If you file a
bump request for tre, please add it as a dependency of this one.

I trough, that this will be handled by tre maintainer :)
I were about to fill crm later, but since you are already here, i filled tre
request :)

greetings,

i found easy way, how to upgrade tre, before 0.7.5 will make it into the
portage.
Its quite simply, just copy one file and thats it. You can find dirty guide how
to do it here http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=190270 .

I also managed to compile "crm114-20070810-BlameTheSegfault" ... i will report
if it works fine, but it should.

Since bumping tre seems to be 2 mins job, i hope we will be able to push crm114
into the portage in short time.

I do apologise - this is completely my fault, I've known about it for a long
time, I just haven't been able to get around to doing it - and currently, the
weather is not very good (been 2 days without power although it is back
currently, looking to be a rough go this weekend as well.  I will get to this
as soon as possible.

I plan on doing this bump soon - sorry it has taken so long - I emailed the
user maintainer because I plan on also cleaning up the versions that we have in
portage, getting rid of the older versions which were never stabled.  Thanks
for being patient!

Finally added this to Portage tree, in 2 hours it should be available in the
~arch tree.  If no issues are found, it will go stable in 30 days.  Thanks for
your patience and the report!

Thanks a lot. Im looking forward to try it. Btw i also spotted, that there is
optimalized version for x86_64 systems.

Related documentation:
http://crm114.sourceforge.net/wiki/doku.php?id=coolthings (first thing on that
page) It points to http://hebbut.net/Public.Offerings/index.html#crm114 . 
However i didnt have time to check the diferences yet.

It seems to be just build of CRM114 and patch set for this version.
Might be worth to check.

Again, thanks a lot and wish you more power ;)

First of all, i would suggest to put warning after emerging crm114, that CSS
files from version 20060704a are not compatible with 20070810 and later relaes.
I didnt find way how to import old CSS files, dump and restore doesnt work.

And story about x86_64 optimized version is like this.
This version of crm114 is optimized for x64, however it should run on 32bits as
well. Optimizations are to be merged into the main tree in the future. Until
then, author keep patching current/latest non official release here.

Authoer said, that on x64, its worth to try, on 32bits we should go for
official.

Dunno Steev, do you think, its worth to add it ?
