gnu-efi is the GNU library that provides an implementation of EFI which is Intel's way to boot ia64 systems. Check out http://developer.intel.com/technology/efi/ for more information. Since this is a dependency for elilo this could go in sys-boot/gnu-efi.
Created an attachment (id=24154) [edit] ebuild for gnu-efi
Created an attachment (id=24156) [edit] patch for ia64 and ia32 lds files
matt, I've put this in portage. Here are a couple comments for you: 1. it's more convenient if you include the name of the ebuild and patch when you attach them. the attachments below don't suggest what the name of the files should be when I download them. :-) 2. I renamed the patch to include a hint of what it's patching. I changed it from gnu-efi-3.0a.diff to gnu-efi-3.0a-lds.patch 3. LICENSE="GPL" isn't valid, actually. it needs to be GPL-1 or GPL-2. I'm guessing GPL-2 is correct (enough) 4. I added a couple other things to the ebuild (DEPEND/RDEPEND, ARCH-manipulation, installation of documentation) Thanks!
