Description Attila Fazekas 2007-04-06 18:34:05 UTC 
Searches for asm-page.h, but he needs sys/user.h now.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
emerge gps

Actual Results:  
checking for Linux /proc fs... yes
checking for asm/page.h... no
configure: error: Linux-specific header file missing


Expected Results:  
>>> app-admin/gps-1.1.0-r1 merged.

I will send a patch.

Is this patch going to be in portage?

The patch has been available for over half a year now, but on my system the ebuild still fails...

hi, probably not, as this application is only gtk1, which is being removed from portage in the not too distant future.  Additionally, this package seems to be completely dead upstream.  The best course of action would be for someone to jumpstart the usptream development and port the stupid thing to GTK2.

(Talked to ColdWind in irc, he agreed)

# Jeremy Olexa <darkside@gentoo.org> (22 Nov 2008)
# Masked for removal in 30 days, requested by maintainers. bug #173584
# Does not compile, old, unmaintained, depends on gtk-1.
app-admin/gps
