Created attachment 387004 [details, diff] Patch to port the PIC fixes Okay previous patch had broken code, that's what you get when you code this late. Blueness, if you can test the patch as you did with the one for version 4 it'd be nice though this should work (only significant change is that I keep the ebx register as recommended by the ELF ABI).

This patch is no applying cleanly. I just bumped rng-tools-4-r7.ebuild to -5- removed the old textrel patch and then tried to apply this one. No good. Can you provide both patch and ebuild just in case I'm doing this wrong.
Created attachment 387140 [details, diff] Patch to port the PIC fixes I messed up with the white spaces when creating the new patch, sorry. I have added an ebuild to my overlay including the fixed patch git://git.overlays.gentoo.org/user/klondike.git
(In reply to Francisco Blas Izquierdo Riera from comment #6) since the section name has changed, you no longer need to '#undef i686'

Added new patch and updated the overlay.

Created attachment 387158 [details, diff] Patch to port the PIC fixes v5 Thanks blueness, I added it as tested by you :)
I have mailed this to Jeff and Henrique in the hope it gets merged, we'll see what they have to say :)
Jeff told me he isn't maintaining the package anymore and told me who to forward the patch to instead. I have done so, I'll come back once HPA or Ricardo Neri answer back.
