Since "create attachment" doesn't seem to work, I am pasting the ebuild ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- #Copyright 2002 Gentoo Technologies, Inc. #Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License, v2 or later #Author Dmitriy Kropivnitskiy <nigde@mitechki.net> aka Jeld The Dark Elf A=${P}.tar.gz S=${WORKDIR}/${P} DESCRIPTION="A GUI IRC client scriptable in Tcl/Tk" SRC_URI="http://quirc.org/${P}.tar.gz" HOMEPAGE="http://quirc.org/" DEPEND="dev-lang/tcl dev-lang/tk" RDEPEND=$DEPEND src_unpack() { unpack ${P}.tar.gz cd ${S} } src_compile() { ./configure \ --prefix=/usr \ --infodir=/usr/share/info \ --mandir=/usr/share/man \ || die "./configure failed" emake || die } src_install () { make DESTDIR=${D} install || die }
You can remove the A= line entirely, as well as the entire src_unpack() function. You can also remove the RDEPEND=$DEPEND line, as this is also the default. In fact, you should be able to remove the entire src_compile() function as well and it should still work (again, the default) :)
Hi Jeld, I am going to need some help on this one. I have added this package. The ebuild as it was presented caused sandbox violations. So, I have changed it around a bit to avoid those. But `quirc -i` does not behave as expected. So, this package has been added into portage, but I have masked it, until you and I can get it working. This is where you come in. To emerge it, please do this: cd /usr/portage/net-irc/quirc ebuild quirc-0.9.82.ebuild merge Since you requested, I assume you're quite familiar with it, and enough to help me debug this thing :)
I distincly remember that I had had some problems with doing initial install. I do not remember the resolution off the top of my head. I think the default installation didn't copy some files over for some reason. The problem is that I have just moved and don't have net access. I should be able to get on with this in about a couple of weeks. Sorry.
Hmmm, I just installed the .ebuild as it is in the tree and it works fine. Did you fix it? If not, what kind of strange things are you seeing?
jeld, this works for you then?
I didn't run quirc -i. I just started quirc without switches and it ran as it should. I tried to delete ~/.quirc and start it again and it worked.
