patch for i3-4.13-r1.ebuild
patch for i3-9999.ebuild
i3 patch from Alpine Linux

Description Johannes Rosenberger 2017-02-13 23:24:21 UTC
i3 fails to build on musl with the following message:

    ../../i3-4.13/libi3/resolve_tilde.c:28:26: error: use of undeclared identifier 'GLOB_TILDE'
        int res = glob(head, GLOB_TILDE, ((void*)0), &globbuf);

GLOB_TILDE is not included in glob.h from musl but it is in development in upstream[1]. It was actually planned for musl 1.1.16[2].

I tried out the patch from Alpine Linux[3] and it just worked for i3-4.13-r1 and i3-9999 (see ebuild patches).

The i3 upstream is aware of the problem and of the Alpine patch but waits for musl to implement GLOB_TILDE[4].

Shall I create a pull request for the portage tree or the musl overlay on GitHub?
