Bug 353969 – app-crypt/johntheripper-1.7.6-r1 fails to compile with USE=altivec

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Samuli Suominen (RETIRED) 2011-02-07 14:26:39 UTC]

This one is related to bug 327211 which got a bit mixed up due to multiple different issues there. So this one is strictly for PPC/PPC64 and USE=altivec problems. Others, don't even bother to comment here. Thanks.

And before anyone asks, adding -mabi=altivec or -maltivec has no difference here.

Unless I'm missing something, johntheripper-1.7.6-cflags.patch is just a collection of typos.

Fixed the patch in CVS. Not sure if it will fix it, but it will definitely be more likely to fix it than the original one. Good catch. Thanks!

Nice catch Rafał and thanks for applying Dane but unfortunately this has no effect on the end result. Still fails the same way.

[Comment 6 Dane Smith (RETIRED) 2011-02-09 18:45:38 UTC]

Removed the altivec use flag in 1.7.6-r1 as the issue is almost certainly upstream. I will be contacting them. Should build fine on ppc/ppc64 now. Thanks for all the help Samuli. Closing.
