I've done a test emerge and compile of dev-db/firebird-1.5.1 on sparc. It compiles cleanly, starts, and passes a few really basic tests (it can create databases, tables, and run simple queries). firebird-docs is, well, just documentation. It can probably be safely used on every platform. :-) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
~sparc keyword for firebird-docs-1.0 and firebird-1.5.1. Thanks for the report!
