(In reply to Brian Parkhurst from comment #0) > Latest version installed: 2.4.9-r200 Probably because 2.4.x branch was the last with autotools-based build system. :) Can you patch CMakeLists.txt and check if it actually compiles on aplha? --- CMakeLists.txt.orig 2015-08-06 11:21:27.000000000 +0300 +++ CMakeLists.txt 2015-10-29 01:23:37.416886279 +0300 @@ -82,6 +82,8 @@ set(WTF_CPU_ARM 1) elseif (LOWERCASE_CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR MATCHES "^aarch64") set(WTF_CPU_ARM64 1) +elseif (LOWERCASE_CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR MATCHES "alpha") + set(WTF_CPU_ALPHA 1) elseif (LOWERCASE_CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR MATCHES "^mips") set(WTF_CPU_MIPS 1) elseif (LOWERCASE_CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR MATCHES "sh4")
have added the patch to the CMakeLists.txt in the main Source. attempting an ebuild compile on the tree now.
I suspect that Source/JavaScriptCore/CMakeLists.txt also require small change. --- ./Source/JavaScriptCore/CMakeLists.txt.orig 2015-08-06 11:21:27.000000000 +0300 +++ ./Source/JavaScriptCore/CMakeLists.txt 2015-10-29 17:47:10.535712494 +0300 @@ -1146,6 +1146,7 @@ list(APPEND JavaScriptCore_SOURCES ${DERIVED_SOURCES_DIR}/GeneratedJITStubs.obj) endif () elseif (WTF_CPU_ARM64) +elseif (WTF_CPU_ALPHA) elseif (WTF_CPU_HPPA) elseif (WTF_CPU_PPC) elseif (WTF_CPU_PPC64)
Yes, I saw the error during the ebuild. I already added that in and compile is still processing. thanks.
okay after about 20+ hours of compile time, it has installed, with those minor cmake edits. Thanks...
Please reopen. If webkit-gtk actually works on alpha (no runtime failures), then (I hope) gnome team will gladly add these patches. If not, ~alpha keyword should be dropped.
