Corrected Ebuild file

my ebuild

Hi, I just corrected my renamed my ebuild file to 1.8.1 and apparently
everything goes fine (I also updated the name in line 3 of the .ebuild)

I would like to see this ebuild in portage STABLE!!

R-1.8.x is the STABLE branc and 1.8.1 is REQUIRED for the important
BioConductor package in R

-Anders

Uhm, sorry, but R 1.8.1 is in portage since tuesday last week. If you think
your ebuild is better for some reason, please re-open the bug and add some
comment what's different and why. Thanks and sorry for not closing this bug in
time.

It will be stable in portage if it has been testing for about a month without
bug report. Please note that portage stable is not the same as upstream stable.

Ok, I really must sync some more...if your ebuild works, mine is no better.

I still think that, as 1.8.0 has been in the tree for some time, and the changes to 1.8.1 are _trivial_ there should be less of a wait before it is moved into stable.

Thanks
Anders

i had to patch  
R-1.8.1/src/modules/X11/dataentry.c
this way:

- #define NeedFunctionPrototypes 0
+ #define NeedFunctionPrototypes 1

I use xfree86 4.3.99.x

Patrick could you check out whether the change suggested breaks 4.3.0? It is
needed on newer X.

Works fine for me, putting into CVS.

Oh, and closing, of course :-)
