• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description William Hubbs 2006-09-23 15:08:14 UTC]

Please mark emacspeak-24 stable.

Thanks.

[Comment 1 Christian Faulhammer (RETIRED) 2006-09-26 03:11:51 UTC]

Won't work, because tclx fails with GCC 4.1, see bug #95845, which proposes an update to version 8.4 of said packages.

[Comment 2 Joshua Jackson (RETIRED) 2006-10-24 22:17:15 UTC]

please readd x86 when the depend bug is solved.

[Comment 3 Christian Faulhammer (RETIRED) 2006-11-03 12:58:19 UTC]

On 01/12/2006 when dev-tcltk/tclx-8.4 is in Portage for 30 days, we are going to stabilize that version and come back to emacspeak...please remind me/us of that.

[Comment 4 Joe Jezak (RETIRED) 2006-11-16 07:06:15 UTC]

Please re-add ppc when this is ready to happen.

[Comment 5 Christian Faulhammer (RETIRED) 2006-11-30 12:06:23 UTC]

Readd ppc as requested.  Along with emacspeak you need dev-tcltk/tclx-8.4 stable which will be in Portage for 30 days tomorrow and has no open bugs.

[Comment 6 Christian Faulhammer (RETIRED) 2006-11-30 12:22:00 UTC]

jokey just added tclx-8.4-r1 to the tree...take that.  No big changes, according to him.

[Comment 7 Christian Faulhammer (RETIRED) 2006-12-03 09:36:32 UTC]

Loud and clear on x86

[Comment 8 Matti Bickel (RETIRED) 2006-12-31 11:29:13 UTC]

Fast forwarding tclx and consequently solving this bug. Happy new year everyone

This problem is not fixed. 

I emerged after 12-31 and still had problems.

I am working with the emacspeak group ([e-mail]) and emacspeak does not currently work with tcl8.4 and things would be a lot easier and better if it could emerge tcl8.3 only.

The details of this is the tcl scrip used for various drivers uses enhanced functions such as fcntl.  

The fix I used to get my script file (/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/emacspeak/servers/doubletalk) to work was to do the following.

added first 2 lines line
#!/usr/bin/tclsh
package require Tclx

then replace all file0 in the script with stdin

I also had to add export DTK_PROGRAM=doubletalk to my /etc/profile 

the emacspeak group is currently working on trying to make emacspeak compatable with tcl8.4 for all of the servers.


Below in my emerge -info information.
