Bugzilla Bug 200477

With the beta-versions of tcl-8.5 in portage, expect breaks. According to #tcl
on freenode, only expect-5.44 compiles against tcl-8.5, which is why i made
this ebuild.

The following issues remain:
- http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=115688 is still an issue.
   -> Workaround: The new ebuild nukes the testsuite. It is not invoked by a
manual ./configure anyway. Only by econf.
- autoconf does not work (at least not on my amd64)
   -> the sed-replacements included in the old ebuilds are not incorporated
- a bug in the source-code needs to be patched
   -> upstream suggests expect-to-work-with-tcl-8.5.patch

The build works on my machine. I have neither tried building against <tcl-8.5
nor tested it extensively.

updates to expect-5.44.1.ebuild from expect-5.43.0.ebuild

Created an attachment (id=137094) [details]
patch required by expect-5.44.1.ebuild

This patch enables expect-5.44.1 to compile against tcl-8.5.

On a side note, I find something like tclv=="$(echo 'puts [info tclversion]' |
$(type -P tclsh))" a lot better than the nasty grep in the installed headers,
though using versionator eclass and tclv="$(get_version_component_range 1-2
$(best_version dev-lang/tcl))" or similar would be probably preferred.

Bug 182278 needs to be fixed as well.

Couldn't build because of some sandbox violations.

(hehe, I feel as if I was a real developer hehe...)

Thing is, I had to patch the ebuild and also add a Makefile patch for the
aforementioned violations..

If I could, I'd delete the previos 5.43.0->5.44.1 patch

Greets!

PS.  It builds with or without doc use-flag.. Builds against tcl-8.5 just that
don't know if it actually works or not. I only need expect because I have
freenx and at least freenx hasn't stopped working..

Forgot to say I also added DESTDIR="${D}" to the make install
INSTALL_ROOT="{D}" command

Patch to install 5.44.1 (fixing sandbox violations)

This actually makes the previous one obsolete

Patch needed by new ebuild

Patch to Makefile.in to fix sandbox violation (put in files subdir)

I applied the patches and expect-5.44.1 compiled and installed fine.

however, expectk fails with: 

Application initialization failed: version conflict for package "Tcl": have
8.5.1, need exactly 8.5

see my comment in bug #213852.

it is a common problem; easily solved with:

sed -e 's/package require -exact/package require/g' pkgIndex.tcl


(bug #212711 is a more complex case, where package require sits in the source
code, called by Tcl_PkgRequire(interp, "Tcl", TCL_VERSION, 1))
