SWIG 1.3.25 has been out since June. Apart from the usual fixes and enhancements this SWIG release considerably improved the runtime type system support and finally got rid of the previously needed runtime library. Please, make sure to bump subversion to >=1.2.3 once you unmask the swig-1.3.25 ebuild as that release fixes the remaining SWIG binding issues to let it work with this SWIG release. The ebuild is based on swig-1.3.24.ebuild with some cleanups and fixes included for html documentation inclusion (#98013) and virtual/php dependency (#102364) (also changed the python dependency string to virtual/python). "S=${WORKDIR}/SWIG-${PV}" isn't needed anymore as the swig team lowercased the directory name in the provided tar ball. Also the next 2 lines aren't needed anymore as no swig runtime library is created nor needed for the runtime support: # fix the broken configure script use tcltk || sed -i -e "s:am__append_1 =:#am__append_1 =:" Runtime/Makefile Find a diff against swig-1.3.24.ebuild attached. cheers, tamer.
