Description Christian Schmitt 2009-01-05 16:10:01 UTC

This patch makes pm-utils run on PPC based laptops. It prevents the install of sys-apps/vbetool and app-laptop/radeontool for PPC machines, since these packages do not work here.

Should be applied to pm-utils-1.2.3 in portage

This was already approved by the gentopia team to "do what you need to do" by the ppc team[1].

Comment 3 Christian Schmitt 2009-01-05 23:05:36 UTC

Please also note that there is a profiles/arch/powerpc/package.use.mask file with:

# nixnut <nixnut@gentoo.org> (4 jun 2008)
# USE=laptop wants x86 specific packages which can't be build on ppc
sys-apps/hal laptop

This is also resolved with this patch.

Thanks for the patch, ppc has now done what it needed to do. :)  I've pushed this to CVS and removed the mask.

I still get the laptop USE flag masked on hal on PPC. Is it supposed to be masked, still?

Yeah, I had to mask the flag again.  It will remain masked until this package goes stable.  Sorry about the confusion!
